The Video Dead

£16.99

Released: 22nd February 2027. A writer unexpectedly has a television delivered to his house. The TV in question seems to only have one channel which shows the same black and white horror movie - Zombie Blood Nightmare. The delivery people realise too late that the TV should have gone to the paranormal research centre but when they go back the house, they find the writer dead. So begins The Video Dead. Directed and written by Robert Scott, this mid-80s horror, fully embraces the video store horror wave of the era, creating a satisfying and entertaining undead spook show. Fans of The Return of the Living Dead will lap this up, and be delighted with its televisual evil charms.
