Adam Green is a name to remember for horror fans, having written and directed Hatchet and the solid thriller Spiral, not to mention producing Grace. His latest offering, Frozen, has been chosen to premiere at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival in January and looks like it could find a following similar to the surprise 2004 hit Open Water, which likewise screened at Sundance. Check out the Frozen trailer, plus some photos, before it receives a limited theatrical release on February 5.

You might have heard of Silent Night, Deadly Night, but you might not realize that it spawned not one, but FOUR sequels — each seemingly odder than the last, featuring murderous Santas, lesbian witches, killer toys, giant worms, brains under glass, spontaneous combustion, robot children, Mickey Rooney and awful, awful acting. Check out the zaniness in this summary of the Silent Night, Deadly Night franchise.

After some worries about the fate of George Romero‘s latest zombie endeavor, Survival of the Dead, the film has found a home at Magnet Releasing, the genre branch of Magnolia Pictures that has released the likes of The House of the Devil, Surveillance, Mutant Chronicles and Splinter. It looks like Magnet will distribute Survival of the Dead similarly to how it handled The House of the Dead: offering it on-demand for a month — in the spring of 2010 — before a limited theatrical release and then a DVD release a couple of months later. This means that the DVD should hit shelves in the US in the late summer (the UK date, according to Amazon.co.uk, remains March 15).
