To mark the 30th anniversary of The Return of the Living Dead‘s release, Christian Sellers and Gary Smart’s “The Complete History of The Return of the Living Dead“, a unique retrospective that takes a look behind the scenes of the series, is being reissued by Plexus Publishing.

From the press release: The Return of the Living Dead film series has become one of the most successful zombie movie franchises of all time, with the first 1985 film in particular gaining cult status across the world, and inspiring movies such as 28 Days Later, Shaun of the Dead and Zombieland. Now more popular than ever, the films boast a loyal following of diehard enthusiasts.

For the first time ever, the cast and crew of all five films in the cult horror-comedy franchise reveal the stories behind the movies’ making in their own words, going into detail about life on the sets of some of the most fraught productions in cinema history, and the feuds, controversies, legal battles, and sackings that plagued the filmmakers.

Supported by dozens of cast and crew members including Dan O’Bannon, Linnea Quigley, Don Calfa, Brian Yuzna, Aimee Lynn Chadwick, William Butler, John Penny, Brian Peck, William Stout, William Munns, Ken Wiederhorn and many more, “The Complete History of the Return of the Living Dead” features hundreds of previously unreleased behind-the-scenes photographs and exclusive artwork. Bloody Disgusting has a sneak peak below…

This eye-catching, comprehensive and unique book is the ultimate celebration of The Return of the Living Dead franchise and all those who contributed to its creation.

SCREAMBOX Investigates UFOs and Extraterrestrials: Several Documentaries Streaming Right Now!

Published

on

As someone who is obsessed with UFOS (or more recently known as UAPs) and the concept of extraterrestrials, I love a good documentary. Sightings have been on the rise since the 1940s, with the atomic bomb seemingly acting as a catalyst for new visitors. But what are these UFOs/UAPs? Is there an explanation or are they simply beyond our explanation? Why are they here? Who are they? How much do our governments know? The questions are endless and so are the documentaries that attempt to uncover the secrets behind decades of sightings and alleged confrontations.

Whether you’re a seasoned viewer or new to the rabbit hole, there’s always a handful of interesting documentaries to get your neurons firing and leave you with sleepless nights. SCREAMBOX is investigating with the addition of several docs, all streaming now on the Bloody Disgusting-powered service. Here’s the breakdown:

Aliens (2021): Beam into this unidentified streaming documentary for a glimpse into Extraterrestrial life. Aliens are hypothetical life forms that may occur outside Earth or that did not originate on Earth.

Aliens Uncovered: Origins (2021): Before Area 51, hidden deep in the desert, the military discovered a hidden gem that helped them create Project Bluebook.

Aliens Uncovered: ET or Man-Made (2022): The crash of Roswell wasn’t meant for New Mexico. In 1947, a neighboring state had 3 major sightings that were swept under the rug.

Aliens Uncovered: The Golden Record (2023): In the late 70s, the US government launched a message to our distant neighbors.

Roswell (2021): This high-flying documentary examines the July 1947 crash of a United States Army Air Forces balloon at a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. Theories claim the crash was actually that of a flying saucer, but what is the truth?
