‘The Battery’ is a film I’ve mentioned before a few times and we’ll all finally have a chance to pick it up in the near future! Well this Fall at least. Before I go into details let me just say that the cover above is SO much better than the one below. Because… Well… I don’t think I need to spell that out!
At any rate September 16th is the release date for when you’ll be able to snag a copy of the film for yourself. The artwork is apparently reversible so you can choose which cover you’ll want to use and a DVD version is scheduled to be released as well. Special features? None listed at this time but there is bound to be something.
Synopsis:
Two former baseball players, Ben (Jeremy Gardner) and Mickey (Adam Cronheim), cut an aimless path across a desolate New England. They stick to the back roads and forests to steer clear of the shambling corpses that patrol the once bustling cities and towns. In order to survive, they must overcome the stark differences in each other’s personalities. Ben embraces an increasingly feral, lawless, and nomadic lifestyle while Mickey is unable to accept the harsh realities of the new world and longs for the creature comforts he once took for granted. A bed, a girl, and a safe place to live. When the men intercept a radio transmission from a seemingly thriving, protected community, Mickey will stop at nothing to find it, even though it is made perfectly clear that he is not welcome.
