Blu-ray Horror Release For Tuesday April 16th

This week we really only have one horror release which is The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia. The sequel to the 2009 The Haunting in Connecticut, apparently studios think were so stupid that we cannot process The Haunting In Georgia as a sequel to The Haunting in Connecticut so they gave it the most stupid name of 2013 next to The Last Exorcism Part 2 (Review Here).
The horror spoof A Haunted House is also being unleashed on blu ray today. If you like stupid boring comedies with awkward moments that give you the most agonizing douche chills, then this one is for you.
Also being released is the award winning Quentin Tarantino film Django Unchained.

NEW: Friday Froude Flix

Our newest addition to the site is going to be Friday Froude Flix. Where are very own, Fearless_Froude, searches out the most obscure B-Movie horror films or the most strange ones that make you go WTF?
Every Friday they will be posted up giving you thoughts on the strange, bizarre, bad and just plain ugly cult horror films this side of the internet.

Danny Boyle On 28 Months Later

Fan Made Poster 
Director Danny Boyle gave us 28 Days Later in 2002, which gave new life into the post apocalypse zombie genre. The zombies were not slow walking dumb asses, these things were infected with RAGE which gave the infected the ability to run. A simple enhancement had a huge change on the pace and tension of the zombie film. And the fact that it took place in England with no one around and seeing the iconic London Bridge empty. That's some freaky ass shit.
In 2007, Juan Carlos Fresnadillo directed a sequel called 28 Weeks Later. A worthy sequel where America takes over the country and tries to do good but then shit hits the fan AND THEY CARPET BOMB ENGLAND :O.......! 
We have been waiting and waiting and waiting WHERE IS 28 MONTHS LATER? 
In a recent interview with Wired about Boyle's new film Trance he revealed the status of 28 Months Later. 

"Given what we’ve just been talking about, it’s very difficult to know whether zombies are overexposed now as a concept. So it’s 40/60 whether it happens or not.
But we did have an idea of where to set it and what it might be about."-
Danny Boyle

We will take that over silence, at least there talking about it and laying down the ground work.
