The Zombie Apocalypse Cometh: World War Z - Official Trailer (HD)

Nov. 9, 2012 - Shall the undead inherit the Earth? Not if Brad Pitt can help it. Next June, he will try to save the world - and his own wife (played by Mireille Enos) and kids - from a global contagion of the undead. Pitt, a U.N. employee, quickly teams up with fellow zombie fighters to kick zombie butt in bulk. 



This horror flick has it all:
Things exploding all over, lots of bullets flying, zombies swarming, helicopters and jets attacking and edge-of-your-seat suspense - all moving along at a pace that would shame any bullet train. 

Even those who are not fans of the zombie genre of films will find World War Z to be an adrenaline pumper. See full cast and crew at IBDb.

The film is based on the Max Brooks novel "World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War."

Review: Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, now on DVD and Blu-Ray

If you saw it, then you undoubtedly remember the original “Planet of the Apes” starring Charlton Heston (1968). It's one of those movies that just burns itself into your memory with just one viewing. The original left us all wanting an explanation, however, of just how the apes came to acquire human-level intelligence and become the dominant species on Earth.

Friend and fellow screenwriter Michael "Fozzi" Stewart gives us his review of 2011's "Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes," which answers those questions. This "prequel" to the original story is directed by Rupert Wyatt and stars James Franco, Freida Pinto, John Lithgow, Brian Coxtom Felton and Andy Serkis.

In a perfect post-Christmas gift to humans everywhere, "Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes" recently became available on DVD and Blu-Ray.

Fozzi's timing for a review of the DVD release is perfect.  The Hollywood Reporter today notes that "Rise" (20th Century Fox Home Entertainment)  "returned to the top of Nielsen VideoScan First Alert chart, which tracks overall disc sales, and its dedicated Blu-ray Disc sales chart. The title debuted at No. 1 after its Dec. 13 release but slipped to No. 5 in the week leading up to Christmas."  Apes rule, I guess.

Fozzi recommends “Rise” for those of you who missed it in theaters, "and since we mere humans prefer a 'scale' to go by I give 'Rise' a solid 5 out of 5 on the Fozzi Film Scale." Remember, that's not just any scale. It's the Fozzi Film Scale. Read his review here.
