From 12pm to 2pm (Friday 3rd May) Twitter will be invaded by Spartacus’ army each speaking like a Spartan and struggling with the modern world! It’s going to be a huge amount of fun with some truly fantastic and exclusive prizes up for grabs including a sword used during the show for one very lucky participant. So join @SpartacusAB on Twitter this afternoon using the hashtag #IAmSpartacus and join in the fun!

Out Now

As well as Spartacus: War Of The Damned and the complete Spartacus collection out now on DVD and Blu-ray, this week also saw the release of two other fantastic titles…

  • The Collection – Like Horror? You’ll be foaming at the mouth for The Collection. With one of the biggest body counts in any film, this is gore-fest splatter-sodden, crimson-stained horror. Enter the house of pain and suffering but be careful, your corpse may be added to the film’s morbid #ScaryCollection!
  • The Twilight Zone - Out now is the complete collection of the 1980′s Twilight Zone. With a staggeringly impressive cast, this is pure cult heaven. A must for any sci-fi or horror fan, especially with a TV Box set collection.

  • Boy Nobody - Calling all book worms! A new action-packed spy thriller that’s set to be the next Hunger Games is shortly being released. A dark tale of a teenage hired assassin. It’s grim, it’s intense and it’ll be the next big thing very shortly (plans to make it into a film have already been announced, with Will Smith’s son, Jayden taking the limelight.) Check out the trailer !
  • The Facility – Let’s face it, the UK is one of the best countries in the world of horror cinema. Not only does it’s gothic and rich history entice filmmakers from all over the globe to shoot here, but it has created some truly unforgettable horror classics. From Peeping Tom to Dracula; Prince Of Darkness, The Wickerman, Hellraiser and right up to Shaun Of The Dead. We know how to make incredible horror! Well, welcome a new film to the list of the Best Of British Horrors. The Facility tells the terrifying tale of a trial drug gone wrong. A clinical horror borrowing from 28 Days Later, it’s gory, it’s intense and it’s a must see. Head to the official forum for more.

    • Dead Mine – A greedy trip down into the deserted mines quickly turns into a fight to stay alive when something terrifying lurks, buried within. A hugely original film that’s lots of fun! If you haven’t seen the trailer yet, get to it!
