This Christmas The Dead Have Been Given The Gift Of Life ...

Look out cult horror fans, here comes director Joe Zerull with A Cadaver Christmas, a new low budget feature currently wrapping up production. And while no budget horror pictures are a dime a dozen there are very few that show off as much style as Zerull's ...

'Twas the night before Christmas... And somewhere a janitor mops the halls of a university... A drunk sits at a lonely bar while his faithful bartender serves him mug after mug of pity beer... A police officer makes an arrest... A student security guard sits diligently at her desk... And a science professor conducts a dangerous experiment with unimaginable consequences.

United by terrifying and bizarre circumstances, the janitor, the drunk, the bartender, the cop, his perp, and the student security guard must fight to undo the professor's work. A dark force is at work in the cadaver lab this Christmas and this unconventional band of heroes are the only hope the world has against an army of living corpses that are quickly recruiting new members. The undead have been given the gift of life and it's up to the janitor to take it back.

A bit Evil Dead, a whole lot 1950s cult b film, this looks like stylish, splattery fun. Check the trailer below the break.

Anyone notice the Jack Burton shirt hanging behind the janitor outfit?
At first glance this looks like Jack Brooks Monster Slayer but hopefully it will be better cause I was pretty let down by that flick.

I wonder how long this "grindhouse" style poster trend is gonna last.

Not that Romano did that poster or anything... just sayin'.

Hmm... Definitely shot on the cheap, but if the performances are as fun as the style is (when they start talking), then this could be a good time.

The Big Trouble in Little China shirt definitely has me wanting to like it.

I donated $50 at their website. I got a DVD with the teaser on it. I guess my name will be in the credits? There are a bunch of different things that this Zerull guy has done on there which are pretty cool. I'm a little worried about the acting, but regardless I think the movie will at least look cool.

I read that this Zerull guy has a huge hard on for Kurt Russell. Big Captain Ron Fan I guess...did you notice the Captain Ron eye patch in the trailer too? (There's not really an eye patch in the trailer).
