New Horror Releases in Theaters and on DVD: Week of March 2, 2008

What's Coming Out This Week?

By Mark H. Harris, About.com

In this DVD-only week, Awake is the lone major release, but the rest have a certain "cult" appeal.

The Deepening

© Phoenix Entertainment
A New York City fireman suffers from posttraumatic stress disorder following 9/11 and transfers to a small-town fire department. Unfortunately, death follows him, as someone begins stalking the townsfolk. Who could it be...?

Experiment

© MTI Home Video
A man and a woman, both with no memory of who or where they are, run into each other and must uncover the truth behind the experiment that they are unwittingly a part of.

The Forever Dead

© Brain Damage
A familiar zombie plot with six strangers trapped in a house surrounded by zombies gets a twist when the strangers all relate their individual tales of how they reached the house and realize that they might have a connection to each other after all. Less storytelling, more zombie killing!

The Fun Park

© Empire
A group of teens head to an abandoned amusement park to debunk the urban myth of it being haunted by the ghost of Bobo the Clown. Unfortunately for them, they ARE tall enough to ride this ride...

Left for Dead

© Lions Gate
Action B-movie director Albert Pyun (Cyborg) goes horror for the second time in a row (following 2007's Invasion) for this tale of an outlaw who's pursued by a posse and ends up in a literal ghost town...that's haunted by an evil ghost.

Mega Snake

© First Look
A man who is deathly afraid of snakes must stop a mythical giant snake -- who apparently is not mythical after all -- from destroying his town.

Satan's Whip

© Brain Damage
In order to earn his way into a secret society dedicated to fighting evil, a man must find and rescue a missing priest. But is the cost of membership in the society more than he bargained for? I bet it is!

Suburban Sasquatch

© Brain Damage
Doesn't the title really say it all? A man-ape goes on a rampage in the suburbs, and some people must stop him because he, like, didn't pay his homeowners' association fees or something.

Torment

© Brain Damage
More killer clowns! This time, a woman goes to a secluded cabin to recover after being released from a psychiatric hospital, only to be "tormented" by a crazy clown named Dissecto. You'll never eat at McDonald's again.
