I think we can all agree that there haven't been enough nursing home-based horror-comedies lately. The sub-genre is basically barren aside from Bubba Ho-Tep; however, the upcoming Silent But Deadly is ready to drop some more horrific retirement palace humor on you.
Originally titled Hotel Arthritis (which is a pretty hilarious handle in its own right), Silent But Deadly has grabbed this new name, redesigned its movie poster (see below), and even shot a new trailer (see below as well…probably should have told you it was down there when we told you about the poster…sorry).
The cast of this film is absolutely wonderful, including Dawn Wells (MaryAnn from "Gilligan's Island"), John Tartaglia (Broadway's Avenue Q), Lee Meriwether (Catwoman from the 60's "Batman" series), David Proval (Richie Aprile on "The Sopranos"…how's your chest, Richie?), Martin Kove (played the sensei of the Cobra Kai in the original Karate Kid)…are you kidding me?...

“I don’t want to achieve immortality through my works. I want to achieve it by not dying.” - Woody Allen
Many people would happily sign up for immortality if all they had to do was bite a wayward hooker on the neck every once in awhile. Even then, you’re giving Porsche or Licorice the gift of immortality. However, there’s all the other shit you gotta deal with as a vampire, like having to avoid garlic at all costs (pizza is probably a no-go) and being unable to wander around in the daylight. Then there’s also the holy water, and the wooden stakes, and the crucifixes, all of which can quickly put the kibosh on the whole immortality thing.

Jason Lockhart Deemed one of the potential breakout stars of the year in the horror genre by this very site, Jason Lockhart is one of the busiest actors this year with a wide variety of projects that are either in pre or post production or just recently released like Vampire Boys. Vampire Boys is a gay romantic horror comedy / drama that's out to push boundaries and open the door for a new type of film to co-exist in the indie film world. Jason Lockhart has a non fussy, awww shucks kind of screen presence that allows for him to relate to viewers as the appealing guy next door as he takes on roles playing the nerd, the lovable goofball or the everyman.
