The long-delayed US release of 13, a remake of the acclaimed 2005 Georgian thriller 13 Tzameti, is finally set. Originally set up at Paramount Vantage, the remake has been picked up by Anchor Bay for a limited theatrical run starting October 28, followed by the DVD/Blu-ray a couple of weeks later on November 8 (Let’s hope they upgrade the sketchy cover art before then.).

Non-horror fans probably think that all horror fans want in a movie is buckets of blood and guts, but as the direct-to-video slasher Sweatshop shows, that's not the case. It has strong gore scenes -- courtesy of the killer's humongous weapon of choice, a hammer that would put Thor's to shame -- but the splattery mayhem can't make up for the weak acting, shoddy writing, annoying characters and ineffective direction.
