If you’ve ever thought it might be fun to live out your favorite horror movie, MIMESIS is coming to DVD and Blu-ray, as well as selected big screens, to make you second-guess that idea. Read on for the details and art.

Coming February 12 from Anchor Bay Entertainment, MIMESIS was directed by Douglas Schulze from a script he wrote with Joshua Wagner, and begins at a horror convention, where a select group of fans are invited to an exclusive party at a nearby farm. Upon waking up the next morning, the attendees discover themselves in the midst of an undead siege scenario very reminiscent of a certain George A. Romero classic. (Just to assure everyone gets the point, the disc art appends the movie’s title as MIMESIS: NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD.) An award-winner at festivals around the world, MIMESIS features appearances by horror veterans Sid Haig, Courtney Gains and the late Bill Hinzman; it will play special-event screenings in various cities ahead of the disc releases, which will include audio commentary by Schulze and Wagner. Retail prices are $22.98 for the DVD, $24.99 for the Blu-ray. Check out the trailer below.
