Winners will be selected at random and notified by e-mail.

Set immediately after the events of Romero’s previous DIARY OF THE DEAD, SURVIVAL is set largely on Plum Island off the coast of Delaware, where the O’Flynn and Muldoon clans have been feuding for generations. The appearance of the ghouls has only heightened the tension, with patriarch Patrick O’Flynn (Kenneth Welsh) dedicated to destroying them while Seamus Muldoon (Richard Fitzpatrick) believes that the walking dead (including their transformed kin) should be kept “alive” until a cure is found. When a detachment of National Guardsmen led by Crockett (Alan Van Sprang) arrives on the island, the stage is set for a series of violent confrontations and lotsa flesh-munching. See SURVIVAL’s official website here, read our review here and track back through our recent video interviews with Romero starting here. And look for Magnet to release another frightful follow-up, Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza’s [REC] 2, July 9; that movie’s Facebook page can be seen here.
