Film News: Piggy to be Released on DVD in the UK in May

By Paul Metcalf

May 15, 2012

Metrodome are releasing Piggy in the UK on May 21st. As you can see by my review I did quite like it, but unlike the quote on the DVD cover suggests I don’t see it as the “New Clockwork Orange”. It’s a harsh brutal look at revenge and vengeance with good performances by some of the “usual suspects” from the British film scene. It’s also the debut film for new director Kieron Hawkes who looks to have a bright future in film. When his brother is murdered Joe (Martin Compston – The Disappearance of Alice Creed, The Damned United)...

By Paul Metcalf

May 15, 2012

“Hello, Juan of the Dead…We kill your loved ones…!” Juan of the Dead is to be released by Metrodome in the UK on June 4th. As you can see by my review personally I love it and see it as a must buy. If you like films like Shaun of the Dead you’ll love this. JUAN OF THE DEAD tells the blood-drenched tale of a slacker who decides to save Cuba from an invasion of cannibalistic zombies. As the zombies turn Havana into a gory circus of flying limbs and severed heads, the nightly news anchors continue to calmly...

It’s fair to say that werewolves right now are in a battle.
