It’s another zombie apocalypse where what’s left of humanity is worse off than the zombies that are eating us alive! I’m always torn on these as it’s such a great concept (and the film looks decently done) but it’s also such an overdone concept. Hopefully there’s some good twists on this one!
Ruthless Pictures has released the poster and trailer for it’s upcoming thriller Dead Weight. Kino Lorber Films is releasing the movie on DVD and VOD on January 21st, 2014 through their Redemption label.
A festival and critic favorite, Dead Weight has screened at over 20 film festivals.
DEAD WEIGHT is a pulse-pounding survival horror movie in which the humans are more terrifying than the zombies. In the wake of an apocalyptic viral outbreak, the undead take over major cities.
Charlie Russell (Joe Belknap) treks through the relative safe zone of the wilderness to reunite with his girlfriend, Samantha (Mary Lindberg). As Charlie’s journey brings him closer to his destination of Wausau, WI, he must face physical exhaustion, malicious survivors, and perhaps most menacing, his growing thirst for violence.
Dead Weight stars Joe Belknap, Mary Lindberg, Michelle Courvais and Aaron Christensen.
