The Haunting WWII Set Horror ‘Ghosts Of War’ Debuts On Netflix

One of our favorite films of the year, the haunting World War II set horror Ghosts of War, is now streaming on Netflix! Written and directed by Final Destination‘s Eric Bress, the film follows five battle-hardened American soldiers are assigned to hold a French Chateau near the end of World War II. Formerly occupied by the Nazi high command, this unexpected respite quickly descends into madness when they encounter a supernatural enemy far more terrifying than anything seen on the battlefield. Brenton Thwaites, Alan Ritchson, Skylar Astin, Theo Rossi, Kyle Gallner, Billy Zane, and Shaun Toub star in Ghosts of War which we gave a 5 out of 5 score in our review.

This July ‘Ghosts Of War’ Will Haunt Cinemas And Digital (Trailer)

I imagine if any place could be haunted it would be those locations where men died in the dirt fighting wars or places associated with horrible atrocities. In the new trailer for the World War II set supernatural thriller Ghosts of War, we get both of those things. We see a group of soldiers who are tasked with guarding a mansion, not knowing the terror that awaits them. In Ghosts of War, five battle-hardened American soldiers are assigned to hold a French Chateau near the end of World War II.

New Office Uprising Clip Teaches You How To Survive Your Co-Workers

Let’s be honest, most of us have daydreamed at work about what we’d do to our co-workers if there was an apocalypse type scenario. Well, in Lin Oeding‘s horror-comedy Office Uprising, that’s just what happens, in an office building full of employees are turned into rage-filled psychos out to kill. In a new super long clip (nearly 6 minutes) titled “How to Survive a Day at Ammotech,” Brenton Thwaites’ character Desmond gives seven steps on how to survive a day at the office. In Office Uprising “An underachiever working at a major weapons manufacturing firm finds that his co-workers have been “weaponized” by a new energy drink designed for the military. He must then set off to rescue his one true love from an office building full of psychotic coworkers armed with deadly tech.“ Jane Levy (Don’t Breathe, Evil Dead), Zachary Levi (Shazam!), Alan Ritchson, and Ian Harding co-star along with Sam Daly (Submerged). Office Uprising will be on PlayStation

Blood Drive’s Season Finale Teased In New Clip “Finish Line”

One of (if not the) best new horror series on TV is Syfy’s ‘Blood Drive’. Ahead of Wednesday’s season finale a new clip teases the battle Arthur (Alan Ritchson (interview)), Grace (Christina Ochoa) and Slink (Colin Cunningham) are about to face as they race towards the company at the center of the country’s downfall on what is basically a suicide mission. Over the past 12 episodes, we’ve seen hundreds slaughtered, serious ass-kicking action, and Arthur go from a mild mannered cop to a bad-ass “Primo”. We’ve seen Grace evolve too. Some of her walls have come down as she’s grown to care about Author. We’ve even come to love Slink’s twisted self. I hate that the season is almost over, but hopefully, Syfy has taken notice of ‘Blood Drive’s’ legion of fans on social media demanding that they #RenewBloodDrive. And we are right there with them. This season has left us craving more! Check out the clip for the finale,

Syfy’s ‘Blood Drive’ Is An Insane, Gore-Filled, Fun Ride – A Review

Syfy has really stepped up their original content over the past couple of years. Their upcoming series Blood Drive is great example of that. In fact it is one of my favorite new shows. In the series, a young cop named Arthur Bailey (Alan Ritchson) may be the last remaining decent cop left after the U.S. has gone to hell thanks to the “Scar”, a huge, deep crack in the country, and a severe drought that has left food scarce, and water hard to get. In fact, people are secretly selling their blood for water. Crazy, right? You might be wondering why anyone would need so much blood, with gas prices insanely high a group of underground racers have modified their rides to run off of blood, human blood. When Officer Bailey and his partner Chris (Thomas Dominique) get a tip from a snitch (Nathan Lynn), who trades info for water, they stumble across a warehouse filled with freaks and

Alan Ritchson, who has appeared in series such as Blue Mountain State and films like The Wedding Ringer and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, is now starring in Syfy’s new series Blood Drive.
