This week, Anchor Bay Entertainment debuted the gripping and twisty British thriller THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ALICE CREED, starring Gemma Arterton, Eddie Marsan and Martin Compston, on DVD and Blu-ray. It marks the impressive directorial debut of THE DESCENT: PART 2 screenwriter J Blakeson; Fango’s Michael Gingold spoke to the filmmaker about its creation, and you can see the first part of this exclusive chat below.

FANGORIA was sent one of the coolest, funniest little slabs of stop-motion silliness we've ever seen in the form of short film, RISE OF THE LIVING CORPSE, last week. Taking its badass cues from the mother of all anti-movie short movies BAMBI MEETS GODZILLA, Canadian animation professor Christopher Walsh (he teaches animation at the legendary arts institution Sheridan College in Oakville, ON) has made something so cool and quick that if you blink you might miss its awesomeness. Have a look!
