"The Horde" Spreads Stateside!

Cops battle criminals and things get even bloodier when the living dead show up in THE HORDE (LA HORDE), a French gorefest from directors Yannick Dahan and Benjamin Rocher. Set for Stateside DVD release later this year.

THE HORDE follows a quartet of police officers who set out for revenge against a vicious gang that murdered one of their colleagues. They get the tables turned on them, but the confrontation is interrupted when a zombie plague overtakes the city, trapping the good guys and the bad guys in a tenement building where they have to unite to survive.

• Making-of featurette

• Short-film prequel RIVOALLAN

• Deleted scenes

• Alternate opening

• Drawing studies for the zombies and sets

• Poster projects

• Storyboard extracts

• French teaser

• U.S. trailer

Retail price is $24.98.
