Helix: Season 1
Investigating
a viral outbreak at an Arctic bioresearch station, CDC researchers
learn that they—and, eventually, mankind—are totally screwed. From Battlestar Galactica’s Ronald D. Moore, so it’s nice and claustrophobic. (Sony)
Afflicted
Two buds
traveling the world filming a web series find their trip cut short when
one of them hooks up with a vampire in Paris and, upon realizing that he
can’t die and must feed, becomes a vigilante Dexter vampire. There’s your web series. (CBS Films)
No Vacancy
Seven
friends en route to Las Vegas are forced to spend the night in a
roadside motel and, sure enough, they’re soon being tortured and killed.
Yet another scenario in which a AAA membership would have come in real
handy. (Lionsgate)
Oy Vey! My Son is Gay!
Long
Island parents’ anxiety over their sons coming out if the closet(s)
together only gets worse when the boys decide to adopt. The one film in
which you’ll see Bruce Vilanch and Carmen Electra sharing screen time.
Hopefully. (Breaking Glass)
Rockabilly Zombie Weekend
A
couple’s rockabilly-themed wedding is ruined when a West Nile Virus
outbreak spreads swarms of zombie-spawning mosquitoes (sure, could
happen). Featuring the way-out sounds of Slip & the Spinouts and The
Dive Bar Stalkers! (Green Apple)
