Four SA Films to See This Weekend

The San Antonio Horrific Film Fest is so chock full of films it may be hard to decide which ones to see. There are four that stand out to us at Mission Unknown as must-see movies. The following films have deep San Antonio roots and deserve your consideration:

Dr. S Battles the Sex Crazed Reefer Zombies

In a quiet American town a small group of scientists have unwittingly unleashed a horrible force. Mary jane, the all American sweetheart, parks on Make Out Hill with her boyfriend Billy. He smokes some of the reefer and is suddenly transformed into a sex crazed reefer zombie. Just as Billy lunges forward he is pulled out of the car, thrown down and shot. Mary Jane looks at her brutal savior, Dr. S.

Dr. S battles his way back to the city convincing Mary Jane there is a cure. What follows is a blood soaked, fright filled extravaganza of pain, gore and butchery that will bring an uncertain end for Crystal Oaks and the world as we know it.

Dr. S Battles the Sex Crazed Reefer Zombies was produced by Film Classics Productions and directed by Bryan Ortiz. This movie has been getting a lot of positive reviews. Film Classics Productions short film Four Minutes Till The End was selected to screen at The Short Film Corner as part of The 62nd Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France earlier this year. Way to represent!

Zombie Movie

When Dave is dumped by his girlfriend of 4 1/2 yrs, he falls into a depressive rut from which his best friends from Beta Iota Epsilon become determined to take him out of. After dragging Dave to a Fraternity Mixer in which he bumps into his ex-girlfriend Jaime and her new boyfriend, rival Fraternity president Brett Brauner, the situation worsens for Dave as his best friend Bull accidentally wakes the corpses of a Cannibalistic Devil worshipping Cult which was buried alive on the grounds 100 years earlier.

Now Dave and the Beta boys must fight through hordes of newly infected zombies to find Jaime and put an end to the seemingly indestructible Cult Zombies in order to save the world from the Zombpocalypse and rekindle Jaime’s love for him.

Zombie Movie was produced by The Darkness who also are responsible for the special effects (naturally) and it was written and directed by Sergio Guerra.

Echo

This film follows Darren, a cold and calculating mob hitman, attempting to have a normal life with his unsuspecting girlfriend and inadvertently comes across the path of another killer: a brutal and sadistic serial killer only known as the Angel of Mercy. As the walls of his perfect facade begin to crumble, he must face a killer hellbent on destroying his very existence.

Echo was produced by Live Wire Films and was written and directed by Mark Cantu.

The House of the Demon

Ortiz Entertainment in association with Twisted Stickman Productions presents The House Of The Demon, an independent feature-length horror/comdey shot entirely on location in South Texas and directed by George Ortiz.

It’s Halloween–the biggest party night of the year–and a group of college friends won’t let the university’s new ban on parties spoil their plans. Fortunately, Charlie has just inherited his recently deceased uncle’s abandoned house on the outskirts of town. What is supposed to be a night of good clean Halloween fun becomes an outrageous nightmare of demonic possession as each of the hapless teens discovers what’s inside The House of the Demon!
