Age of The Nerd
(AOTN)- Ok, SMT Heads, you’ve been chomping at the bit for a new take on zombies. Fortunately, the zombie makers have heard your plea…. That’s why we’re sitting down with ‘Jigsaw’ star, Brittany Allen, and talking about her bold, new take on the last survivor trope in her film “It Stains The Sands Red,” out on DVD/Blu-Ray on Sept. 26th!
Check out our conversation with Brittany (and our nifty, new AOTN graphics) right here:
IT STAINS THE SANDS RED
Comes to DVD on September 26th
In the throes of a zombie apocalypse, Molly, a troubled woman from Las Vegas, finds herself stranded in the desert with a lone ravenous zombie on her trail. At first, she’s easily able to outpace her undead pursuer, but things quickly become a nightmare when she realizes the zombie doesn’t need to ever stop and rest. Running low on supplies and beat down by the harsh environment, Molly will have to summon the strength she never knew she had to ultimately face both the zombie and the demons that have chased her all her life. It Stains The Sands Red will play this year’s LA Film Festival and will be released in theaters by MPI Media Group’s genre division, Dark Sky Films in Summer 2017
