Rob Zombie Shares Rocking Filmmaking Roots with Prong!
Rock star turned filmmaker Rob Zombie shared a look back at some of his filmmaking roots by sharing a link to a video he directed back in the 90′s. Rob posted a link to the Prong video on his official blog this morning.
“Here’s one I directed from way back in the day. This sucker is fifteen years ago. Crap, where does the time go. Prong were a great band and did a whole bunch of shows with White Zombie. I think this was their best line-up with Paul Raven on bass. Wacky low budget video. Enjoy.”

The Crazies
That’s right, The Crazies is being released on DVD on June 29th, 2010. I’m sure I’ll remember this film for a long time because we (Mutantville) saw it in the theater with the legendary Matthew Ewald.
For the most part I liked it. The camera angles were good. Nice camera movement. Great zombie or infected make up though. It is a remake of the George A. Romero film. You’ll notice on the credits that Romero was an executive producer on the film. The original film came out in 1973. To make the new film period, everyone walks around in bell bottom pants to the disco soundtrack. Ok, none of that last sentence is true. 
If you’re thinking about picking it up on DVD, Help us out and get it here. We greatly appreciate the assistance!
I found some articles and reviews of The Crazies:

Your friends and neighbors want to kill you. It’s a simple concept, the basic underlying idea that drives the zombie movie genre, and it’s the.

With its lurid title and anti-government paranoia, The Crazies bears the stamps of the 1970s original from the start, but it fits our times remarkably well. We’re discovering poison in baby formula from China, so how much of a leap is …

George Romero’s 1973 horror movie, reissued in advance of a new remake, isn’t one of his zombie films, but carries a similar thematic charge.

George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead Opens This Week!
That time is upon us once again, oh true believers. Where it once took decades before the master of modern horror would release another film in his epic zombie series, now over the course of the past five years – George A. Romero has released three new dead films and counting! This weekend, George A. Romero’s latest zombie opus Survival of the Dead opens on VOD, Amazon, X-Box Live and in a limited theatrical run. The Mutantville Players were fortunate enough to catch an early showing of Survival of the Dead during an advance screening premiere at the historic Carolina Theatre in Durham, NC back on April 2nd, 2010. MVP was pleasantly surprised by Romero’s latest zombie yarn as it was a light-hearted departure from the nihilistic overtones of the previous entries in the “Dead” series. Fans expecting another dark and depressing bloodbath will most likely leave the theater disappointed – but fans of enjoyable zombie romps such as Shaun of the Dead, Dead Alive, and Return of the Living Dead should enjoy Romero’s latest zombie pic.
Check out the official trailer on Youtube:
Here’s a nice little sneak peek behind the scenes of the making of George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead. As an interesting side note – MVP was able to view this early footage way back in February of 2009 when George Romero hosted the American Zombie Film Festival here in North Carolina.
Hop on over to Break.com and listen as the master George A. Romero discusses his ideas for his latest effort Survival of the Dead. Romero discusses what has been called his neo-western approach taken in his most recent zombie film.

Stop by the Mutantville Players’ Youtube channel to hear our thoughts from the advance screening of George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead. Streebo and the gang loved the movie and had a lot of fun with it so check out our video review to see our initial reaction to viewing the movie.
And just so you know we’re not alone in enjoying the movie – check out this video review from our buddies over at Gutmunchers.com. The writer of the fantastic Gutmunchers webcomic – John – shares his thoughts after viewing the early DVD release of George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead. After you watch John’s review, stop by the Gutmunchers’ webpage and enjoy the hilarity of a world gone mad with zombies in the ongoing Gutmunchers webcomic.

In case you don’t like George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead, that is fine – we all have different tastes – but if you say some kind of nonsense like Romero needs to stop making zombie films – then you need to stop critiquing movies and in the words of the immortal Captain Rhodes – you should CHOKE ON ‘EM! CHOKE ON ‘EM!!! Haters will hate.
Keep on making zombie films, George. We’ll keep watching!

Indie Thriller “Be There In Ten” is Finally Complete!
UK filmmaker, Tom Young recently posted an announcement on his blog about the completion of his long Lynchian horror short – Be There In Ten:
It’s been a long time in the making for a short but Be There In Ten is finally done. I’ve cut a second, slightly longer trailer which is below – if you’re interested in getting a copy of the full movie you can contact me by email (details on my biog page); I’ll also post any details of screenings etc. here in the meantime. Depending how things turn out we may eventually post it on the web in any case, so watch this space.
The film is sort of a cross between a relationship drama and a horror, something I’ve tried to capture in the trailer. It clocks in at around 14 minutes and features grainy Super-8 footage shot around Southbank and Hyde Park, several ghosts, some Steadicam shots made on a dark, rainy night in Chiswick, plus a couple of star turns from the two leads, Sarah Winter and James Powell.
The music at the start of the trailer is the actual music used in the credits of the film (a more extended version of which I posted previously).

George A. Romero Has Two More “Dead” Films Planned!
Shock Til You Drop just conducted an interview with the godfather of modern horror George A. Romero himself and they dropped the juicy tibdit of info that Romero has two more “Dead” films planned for the near future. Apparently these last two films will complete the arc begun in Diary of the Dead – much in the way that Land of the Dead concluded the arc begun back in 1968 with Night of the Living Dead. Shock Til You Drop will publish the complete interview in the very near future.
