2 New Clips From ‘Mimesis’ Go From The Hallway To The Basement
After getting a look the DVD and Blu-ray art for Anchor Bay’s Mimesis and then getting a look at the gory red band trailer we’ve now got our hands on a pair of clips titled “Hallway” and “Basement.” I’m looking forward to checking this movie out when I get a chance later this week!
“What begins as a horror convention after-party for a group of fans will quickly become a genuine flesh-and-blood nightmare: Trapped inside an isolated farmhouse, they must now survive attacks by hordes of hungry zombies while desperately attempting to escape. But is this gore-soaked siege a twisted prank, an elaborate trap, or has NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD actually come to undead life?
Sid Haig (The Devil’s Rejects) and Courtney Gains (Children of the Corn) star in this award-winning shocker from co-writer/director Douglas Schulze that walks the razorsharp line between edgy homage and depraved reality… then proceeds to rip its guts out.”
Head inside for the new clips and to check out the trailer again! Mimesis hits DVD/Blu-ray on February 12.
One of contemporary horror’s best werewolf movies is 2017’s Good Manners, and it’s finally set to receive a proper physical media release.
Icarus Films is partnering with OCN Distribution to unleash a new Blu-ray that’s now available to preorder via Vinegar Syndrome. and with a limited edition slipcover.
Set in São Paulo, the film follows Clara, a lonely nurse from the outskirts of the city who is hired by mysterious and wealthy Ana to be the nanny of her soon to be born child. Against all odds, the two women develop a strong bond. But a fateful night marked by a full moon changes their plans.
Good Manners is the second collaboration between filmmakers Juliana Rojas and Marco Dutra, who write and direct. Zama’s Rui Poças‘ cinematography captures this unique werewolf tale described as “Disney meets Jacques Tourneur.”
Our own Trace Thurman wrote in his review, “With Good Manners, Rojas and Dutro have made one of the best werewolf movies ever made. That they are able juggle commentaries on racism and classism while still managing to tell two deeply affecting love stories is remarkable.”
