Quick question. This is 2014 right? You wouldn’t guess that from watching Varsity Blood!
It would seem that the trend for producing horror movies that harken back to the 80s and the golden age of the slasher, has officially become the “norm” for modern examples of the genre. Every month there seems to be another slasher movie that hits DVD and/or VOD which looks and feels like the self-referential post-Scream years never happened. But I’m not complaining, oh no! As a Huge fan of slasher movies (even the likes of Iced and Terror at Tenkiller) I relish the opportunity to watch each and every new entry into the much-maligned genre.

Jake Helgren's first feature as director is the indie title Varsity Blood. The film is a slasher feature, which focuses on a group of friends and an isolated farmhouse. Helgren's feature will release through Rlj Entertainment, this summer (August 19th, 2014) and a trailer for the film is available here. The story is fairly straightforward. Several friends begin to party on the outskirts of town. The local mascot shows up, axe in hand and this group of friends is now on the chopping block. The trailer for Varsity Blood shows the homicidal mascot. Dressed in full regalia, the Native American mascot lays waste to several high-schoolers. The bloodspray is plentiful and fans of horror can view the clip below. Release Date: August 19, 2014 (DVD). Director/writer: Jake Helgren. Cast: Lexi Giovagnoli, Wesley Scott, Debbie Rochon, Natalie Peyton, Blair Jackson, Elyse Bigler, Melody Herron, Jesse Ferraro, Kiarra Hogan, Chris Hlozek, Payton Wood and Manuel Chapa.

Abraham Lincoln Vs. Zombies
Stars: Bill Oberst Jr., Kent Igleheart, Rhianna Van Helton, Debra Crittenden, Chris Hlozek, Jason Vail, Ronald Ogden, Josh Sinyard | Written by Richard Schenkman, Karl T. Hirsch, J. Lauren Proctor | Directed by Richard Schenkman
Whilst it’s namesake Hollywood counterpart takes the battle to undead bloodsucking legions, Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies sees Lincoln take on an all-together more daunting task… zombies. Opening with Lincoln as a child in the midst of the first zombie outbreak, an outbreak which took the life of his mother; the film follows the titular President as, in the middle of the American Civil War and prepping the Gettysburg address, he downs tools and heads behind confederate lines to battle the undead which have once again risen from their graves and whom have no qualms about chomping down on union or confederate, because as we all know zombies don’t discriminate!
