‘Dead By Dawn’: Watch the Impressive, Gory ‘Evil Dead’ Fan Film That Was Made in One Night for $200

While we wait for the next installment in the Evil Dead film franchise – it’s in the works, though we have no idea what form it will take – fan Courtlan Gordon has gotten together with his friends to make their own fan film set within the Evil Dead universe, titled Dead By Dawn.

What’s most impressive about Dead By Dawn is that it was filmed across a single night with a $200 budget, and yet it looks like a much more polished production than many films with considerably higher budgets. It also taps into that Evil Dead vibe quite well – particularly the vibe of Fede Alvarez’s gruesome remake – with some real nasty bits of practical gore.

The entire project came together, Gordon tell us, in just 72 hours!

Check out Dead By Dawn below and let us know what ya think.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]

While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.

The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.

As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.

Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
