Read on for the results!
Some of the results will make you laugh. Some will make you shiver... and some, well some are just too funny for words.

Romero, and many - Many - more. Who knows? You may even find some new movies you should check out or at least revisit.

“In Production” is a regular column which focuses on notable independent films that are currently shooting.
Shooting from mid-July in Eastern Indiana, Scalene director Zack Parker’s Proxy is a suspense thriller about Esther (Alexia Rasmussen), a pregnant woman who joins a support group after being attacked one night and strikes up a dysfunctional relationship with a fellow victim (Alexa Havins). Parker’s last feature Scalene, which is set for release on Blu-ray, DVD and VOD on July 31st, received glowing reviews for its clever use of the fractured narrative – potentially one of the most over-used cinematic devices of the past three decades. Parker has assembled many of the same crew for Proxy, including composers The Newton Brothers and d.p. Jim Timperman, and added SFX makeup artist James Ojala (Hellboy II, True Blood). Proxy stars Rasmussen (The Comedy), Havins (When In Rome), Kristina Klebe (Rob Zombie’s Halloween) and...

It’s closing night at Kaufman Drive-In, a small drive-in theatre, and to send things off with a bang, owner Cecil B. Kaufman (Richard Riehle) has planned one last nasty little marathon for his loyal patrons.
The marathon in question is Chillerama, a nasty little collection of some lost and forgotten horror films that are only now seeing the light day.
First up on the line-up is “Wadzilla”, both a throwback and a spoof of the 50’s monster flick.
Written & Directed by Adam Rifkin (Detroit Rock City, Bone Chillers), Wadzilla tells the story of mild mannered businessman Miles Munson (Rifkin), who, after undertaking an experimental drug to raise his sperm count, discovers that the drug has dire side effects and that his sperm has mutated into something quite sinister.
Wadzilla captures that charm of the 50’s monster film perfectly – from the look and feel of...
