The Monster Collection includes 11 titles such as COLIN, UMBRAGE: THE FIRST VAMPIRE, STAG NIGHT OF THE DEAD, DEVIL’S CROSSING: THE ZOMBIE WESTERN and THE INSIDE. Our personal favorite (and Martin Scorsese’s!), COLIN, depicts a twenty-something Brit bitten by a zombie. He dies and returns with a vengeance, traveling through the suburban zombie apocalypse. UMBRAGE portrays Doug Bradley (Hellraiser) as a terrifying cowboy Vampire. STAG NIGHT is a raunchy zom com with six stags, one stripper, and a million zombies. DEVIL’S CROSSING is a post apocalyptic zombie western with a soul-collecting, devil-serving protagonist. In the mood for supernatural horror? Watch THE INSIDE to see five young partying couples get trapped inside a haunted, abandoned warehouse.

Be sure to check out these sexy, gory showdowns in the Monster Collection at upcoming film markets!
