Fresh out from Heretic Films, the latest entry in the rapidly burdgeoning “slackers vs. zombies” subgenre:

Hopeless romantic Benny throws a party with the help of his friend Smalls. The goal: to help woo his crush Stephanie, who is fresh out of a bad relationship with the town sexual conquistador, Andrew.

But, their party is soon crashed when Andrew shows up, only to be killed by a bloodthirsty group of zombies created by a virus being developed at a nearby medical testing facility. When Andrew returns to life, Benny and Smalls find themselves fighting for their lives, trying to escape, all while trying to make sense of teenage social life!

Since Night of the Creeps (1986) has been out of print almost since the day of its original VHS release, I’ll forgive you if you don’t immediately recognize the conceptual similarities to The Greatest Movie Ever Made.

Includes cast and crew commentary, 40 minutes of behind-the-scenes footage, outtakes, deleted scenes, and footage from the world premiere. $17.99 at Amazon.com.
