80’s Inspired Poster For Micro-Indie ‘Invasion of the Undead’!
Independent production company MonsterBuster Entertainment shared with Bloody the poster for its first feature film, Invasion of the Undead, an 80’s-style horror comedy in the vein of The Evil Dead and Big Trouble in Little China. It was designed by comic artist Brian Hardison (“Run by the Gun”) and was modeled after the painted artwork that graced movie theaters and VHS boxes in the eighties.
The micro film is said to feature sword fights, stop-motion monsters, practical creature effects and video game-inspired boss battles!
Partially funded through Indiegogo, “Invasion follows Allison, a young woman who gets more than she bargained for when she enlists the aid of two freelance paranormal exterminators to combat an undead infestation in her new home.”
Currently in post-production, the ambitious $17,000 indie film will receive a limited theatrical release in October 2014 with VOD and DVD/Blu Ray to follow.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
