Zombie western The Dead and Damned coming to DVD in July

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

Inception Media Group will release THE DEAD AND THE DAMNED on DVD on July 26. The only special feature will a trailer. Check out the cover art below. The film marks the debut of director/writer/editor/composer Rene Perez. It stars David A. Lockhart, Camille Montgomery, Rick Mora and Robert Amstler.

The zombie western is known as COWBOYS & ZOMBIES in the U.K. (where it hits DVD on August 1). I’m surprised they didn’t use the title for the U.S. release as well, considering the hype behind COWBOYS & ALIENS.

Hot on the trail of a renegade Apache warrior, gun-slinging bounty hunter Mortimer passes through an 1849 California gold rush town, where local miners direct him into the mountains to track his prey.

While he is gone, the miners unearth a meteor that has landed in their sleepy town. As they crack it open, an explosion releases toxic spores, which quickly infect the entire population, transforming them into blood-thirsty, mutant zombies.

Following a ferocious battle, Mortimer triumphantly returns to town with his Indian captive in shackles…only to find themselves surrounded by a ravenous horde of the undead. Now the two enemies must band together if they are to escape the horrors of The Dead and the Damned!
