‘XP-573’ Features ‘Resident Evil’ Voice Actor, Ex-WWE Diva, and More
The Asylum, the production team behind such “hits” as Sharknado and “Z Nation”, has announced that it has started principal photography for their upcoming action zombie film that is currently titled XP-573.
“[XP-573] involves an elite military unit investigating a remote military compound that went dark ten years earlier after a top secret biological weapons program went haywire. Leading the unit is Lt. Gibson (Joey Lawrence). Assisting the team is a CIA virologist, Mikaela Usylvich (former WWE Diva Maryse Mizanin). Within hours of their arrival they discover a survivor, Col. Aiden Wexler (D.C. Douglas).”
D.C. Douglas is known to many video game fans as the voice of Resident Evil‘s Albert Wesker. He explains how the project came to be, saying, “About two years ago I asked my fans on social media if they’d be interested in my doing a zombie film with The Asylum – A film that would include many nods to the videogame series ‘Resident Evil’ and the character that brought me so many fans to begin with – Albert Wesker. So, it’s finally happening.”
XP-573 is directed by Nick Lyon and written by Jacob Cooney and Brandon Trenz. It is expected to come out mid-2016

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery
One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.
Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”
In the SXSW 2024 horror film…
“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.
“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”
Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
