UNEARTHED unearths a whole lot of great movies!

Greetings Gore Hounds and Dead Girls,

It's time again for another installment of the Unearthed Films Newsletter! We have good news! After a year of screwing around with our old distributor, we have found a new home. The company is called Anthem Pictures and we are working closely with them for the release of the whole Unearthed Catalog. This will include the re-release of all our older titles and yes, at long last, our new films will finally start coming your way. Anthem DVD is a great company and u can find them at www.anthemdvd.com

Here is the low down on our new releases. CITY OF ROTT, the extended version, made exclusively for Unearthed Films will be coming out on August 8th. Filled with tons of extras and one of the most beautiful conversions I have ever seen. This animated gore-fest will blow you away. Made by Frank Sudol who worked on the South Park films, you can guess what you're in store for.

Next up is Andrey Iskanov's Russian horror film NAILS. This is Andrey's first film, a kaleidoscope of gore, surrealism and whacked-out philosophy that literally hits the nail on the head. This is the first film in our upcoming Russian Horror Collection. Release date for NAILS is August 15th.

Next up is Brian Paulin's BONE SICKNESS. This is another in an exclusive line of films that have additional gore-filled scenes made exclusively for us. This over the top, zombie gut-muncher is loaded with gore, boobs, decaying zombies and just plain old sticky sickness. Filled with tons of extras. Release date for this monstrosity is Aug 28th. And yes, if you have seen the original, the Sickness just got sicker!

So, that's three new DVDs for the month of August. Next up for September is VISIONS OF SUFFERING, Andrey Iskanov's second feature film containing an extra 40 minutes worth of added gore and computer effects made exclusively for Unearthed Films. Talk about Directors Cuts! This surrealistic splatter film would have Cronenberg and Lynch jealously wishing they had made it! Seriously, Andrey is such a fantastic director that we are in the middle of producing more films with him. More later about this! Release date for VISIONS OF SUFFERING is not yet set in stone BUT it will be in September and we will let you know in a week or two.

FRANKENHOOKER is set for… you guessed it, October, just in time for Halloween. This is the uncut director's version. Tons of extras, like u have come to know and love from us including a commentary by Frank Hennenlotter and Gabe Bartalos, a 19 minute featurette called A Stitch In Time with behind the scenes footage and starring Gabe and the rest of the crew of Frankenhooker. A crazed Jennifer Delora Interview and a sneak peek in her scrap book and last but not least, an interview with Penthouse Playmate of the Year and Frankenhooker star, Patty Mullen!

Then for November, it's LETHAL FORCE! An outrageous mix of kung fu, comedy and gore with a 70's atmosphere and a John Woo directorial feel about it. Sort of hard to explain but it's got the goods and I'm sticking to my story. LOL Loaded with extras including a commentary, short films, extensive photo gallery and more

For December, we are hoping to have ready the first in our series of German Gore Films. First up will be the new and outrageous CANNIBAL (based on the true story of the crazed guy in Germany who advertised on the internet for a victim to eat, an ad that was answered and a victim duly eaten). This film has been banned in Germany. We will follow up with the infamous DAS KOMABRUTTELLE and HUNTING CREATURES, to be quickly followed by a slate of new and known German-made splatter and gore. We are looking at releasing at least one DVD a month from now on. I know a lot of you have complained about not getting a steady flow of sickness from us and it's been mostly due to troubles with our old distributor but, with Anthem, we are hoping to get into a nice groove and never looking back.

Now onto some of the other new films we have picked up for you. In the spirit of the RED ROOM films, we have also acquired MU ZAN E, GIRLSCHOOL HELL and KYOKO VS YUKI from Japan. These vile films from the Tokyo underground should give you a good kick in the teeth. You can find the trailer for MU ZAN E and RED ROOM on our DVD of FLOWER OF FLESH AND BLOOD. It's in the “making of chapters” on the Making of The Guinea Pig Films disc. If u find em, check em out!

We have been busy little cadavers over here and have almost finished producing our new film in Russia with Director Andrey Iskanov, PHILOSOPHY OF A KNIFE. Yes, Unearthed Films has now moved into production mode and, if you think we have dished up the gore to date, wait until you see what we have in store for you here. In fact, we have a trailer cut for PHILOSOPHY and it's now on Unearthed's MySpace site. Go to www.myspace.com/unearthedfilms and check it out.

PHILOSOPHY OF A KNIFE is based on the Japanese chemical and biological experiments of the infamous Unit 731. We tracked down an actual survivor of the atrocities for added realism. This film is balls-to-the-wall and is destined to become one of the all time great cult-gore films; a film that will be heralded as a masterpiece of atrocity. I'm serious, two people ended up badly hurt in the hospital while making this film. The gore sets and scenes or so over the top that I even had to yell at Andrey for going overboard. And that's a first for me!

Next up from Andrey Iskanov and Unearthed Films is ANGEL DUST. The story is in development and we will be working closely with Andrey to make yet another Siberian gem, an atrocity with teeth that will take a bloody chunk out of the soul of the viewer. Will tell you more on this as development proceeds.

Brian Paulin is now in the editing stages of FETUS. This is another film we have helped produce with Brian and it looks like it's going to be very rough. The story of a man whose wife dies during childbirth and who slowly begins to lose his mind as he tries to find a way to contact his dead spouse. He murders the doctors that were involved in his wife's death and tries to resurrect her using the dead body parts of all who were involved. The demonic forces released by his insanity proceed to rip and tear everyone apart Brian Paulin-style. This film crosses way over the line and if u think BONESICKNESS had a lot going for it, wait until you see this film!

We will also be producing Brian Paulin's BONE SICKNESS 2. We are working on the script as we speak and finalizing special effects and zombie prosthetics to make it even more disgusting then the original Bone Sickness.

I am so thrilled about all of these releases. Most of them are brand new or exclusive directors cuts that have never been seen before. If you own any of the Unearthed Films Library, you know what your in store for. So be prepared… be forewarned… Unearthed is coming back with a vengeance!
