Now here are some movies that I personally are looking forward to. After Dark Films has put together 8 horror films that pretty much cover the whole genre, From spooky to gory to down-right strange, there is a little bit of everything here for everyone. Tickets are now on sale for the flicks, and I think the standard ticket prices for your local theaters apply. No special bundle packs for discounts, but Im not too sure. Check out their site for theater listings and more info on each of the movies themselves.
Synopsis:
A revolutionary, nationwide theatrical release of eight films that are deemed too controversial, too graphic by the mainstream studios. HORROR FEST is an all-weekend horror event featuring celebrity appearances, signings, giveaways, and other special events.

When will all eight be on DVD?
Not really sure if they all will be or not. Ive heard rumors that there will be a box set coming out by Fall 07, but just rumors. Would be nice if they all came out at once like that.
