SCREAMBOX August Line-Up of New Arrivals Includes ‘We Are Zombies’, ‘The Funeral’, and ‘When a Stranger Calls’

Halloween season kicks off in less than a month and we’re already dropping some huge horror bombs on SCREAMBOX including the instant gory classic We Are Zombies, the undead horror drama The Funeral, and the cult thriller When a Stranger Calls.

Here’s the full breakdown…

The Hollywood dream becomes a nightmare when The Fanatic stalks SCREAMBOX on August 9. Directed by Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst, John Travolta stars in the psychological thriller as a film buff who develops an obsession with a cult movie star (Devon Sawa, Final Destination).

RKSS (Turbo Kid, Summer of 84) introduces the living impaired in SCREAMBOX Original We Are Zombies on August 13. Based on the comic book series “The Zombies That Ate the World”, the horror-comedy has drawn comparisons to Shaun of the Dead, Zombieland, and Warm Bodies.

A pastor seeks vengeance for his daughter’s murder in The Retaliators on SCREAMBOX August 23. It features appearances by hard rock luminaries Tommy Lee (Mötley Crüe), Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach), Ivan Moody & Zoltan Bathory (Five Finger Death Punch), and Spencer Charnas (Ice Nine Kills).

SCREAMBOX Original The Funeral delivers a love story with bite on August 27. The Turkish slow-burner does for zombies what Let the Right One In did for vampires.

Every babysitter’s nightmare becomes real in When a Stranger Calls. Hitting SCREAMBOX on August 30, Carol Kane (Addams Family Values) stars in the 1979 masterclass in suspense from director Fred Walton (April Fool’s Day).

Other August highlights include British Academy Television Award-winning zombie series In the Flesh; The Call starring horror icons Lin Shaye (Insidious) and Tobin Bell (Saw); and female serial killer thriller The Girl Who Got Away.
