‘Dead Season’ Trailer Debut, First Stills from Latest Zombie Outbreak!
Shot on location in Vieques, Puerto Rico, the island that was previously home to naval test bombings for decades, is Adam Deyoe’s Dead Season, which stars James C. Burns, Scott Peat, Marissa Merrill, Corsica Wilson, Marc L. Fusco, and Todd Pritchett. Bloody Disgusting has scored the first ever stills and trailer debut for the indie zombie feature that was shot entirely on the Canon 7D camera. Get all the goodies, along with the story details beyond the break.
“This movie was a real challenge to make, but in a good way.” said producer Loren Semmens. “DEAD SEASON is more than a zombie movie. It deals with ‘what if’ situations in a post-apocalyptic society; realistic decision making that is necessary for survival.”
“DEAD SEASON tells the story of two post-zombie outbreak survivors, Elvis and Tweeter, as they escape America to find a safe haven on a tropical island. Upon arriving, they are forced to deal with a newly formed community that is anything but civil.”
The film stars James C. Burns, Scott Peat and Marissa Merrill. Burns will be familiar to gaming fans anxiously awaiting the release of “Call of Duty: Black Ops” in November: he plays central character Sgt. Frank Woods.
Shot on location in Vieques, Puerto Rico, the island that was previously home to naval test bombings for decades, Dead Season is the first feature film to shoot there since the original Lord of the Flies!

Katharine Isabelle Battles Cosmic Horror in Exclusive ‘Junction Row’ Teaser Trailer [Fantasia 2026]
Among Fantasia 2026‘s massive final wave of programming this morning is Raven Banner’s Lovecraftian creature feature Junction Row, starring Canadian horror icon Katharine Isabelle, and we’re exclusively unveiling the teaser trailer.
Junction Row will celebrate its World Premiere at Fantasia on July 28.
Watch a housing compound fall under siege from Lovecraftian creatures more dangerous than drug dealers in the trailer below.
Junction Row follows “Juno, a recovering addict who leaves a fringe housing compound for a better life, leaving her beloved Ruby behind. When she learns that Ruby has gone missing, Juno returns, only to find Junction Row has become a hotbed of criminal activity, but she encounters much more than menacing drug dealers on her mission to find Ruby.”
Isabelle stars as Juno, with Natalie Brown (FX’s The Strain) as Ruby.
The creature feature marks the feature debut by director Ashlea Wessel, who has directed festival-favorite shorts like 2018’s “Tick” and 2020’s “Weirdo”.
Wessel co-writes Junction Row with Clown in a Cornfield author Adam Cesare and Matt Serafini.
Katharine Isabelle is coming off a brief appearance in Kane Parsons’ Backrooms, and more recently appeared in holiday horror It’s a Wonderful Knife. The horror icon is arguably best known for her turn as the eponymous werewolf in Ginger Snaps and for her roles in American Mary and Freddy vs Jason.
Fantasia teases that Junction Row tells “a story where the fear of the unknown isn’t confined to what lies above, but what waits beneath.”
Stay tuned for more from Fantasia as the festival gets underway later this month.
