A must-see, refreshing surprise for horror fans, Rammbock: Berlin Undead (user reviews) follows its successful limited theatrical run with a nationwide DVD and VOD release June 28, 2011!
Called “a story of love set against a zombie apocalypse,” this is one “romance” flick that the guys in the relationship will be begging to watch on date night.
Rammbock, which has been hailed as one of the smartest films in the genre, will be available to fans on DVD, Video on Demand (VOD), and online. Released though The Collective’s home-video partnership with Vivendi Universal, Rammbock–as well as the other titles in the Bloody Disgusting Selects series–features unrated content, bonus features and special packaging.
Pre-order from Amazon, add to your Netflix queue or check with your local cable provider for video on demand (VOD) channels (listed below).
Filmmakers Marvin Kren and Benjamin Hessler have given us Germany’s first foray into the Zombie genre. Rammbock is an unlikely tale of love, terror and survival set against the dystopic backdrop of a zombie-infested Berlin.
“Heartbroken and clueless, Michael (Michael Fuith) arrives in Berlin to win back the affections of brooding ex-girlfriend Gabi (Anka Graczyk). But he’s in for a little disappointment: she’s not home and the city is rapidly overrun by bloodthirsty hordes of zombiefied Berliners. His only companion? The plucky Harper (Theo Trebs, “The White Ribbon”), a teenage plumber’s apprentice at work in the apartment complex. From their overnight redoubt in Gabi’s bedroom, the unlikely duo must escape the infested building, outwit the undead and find her…before it’s too late. Rammbock is hide and seek…with zombies!”

Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
