Image Entertainment are all set to roll out (or more appropriately shuffle out) writer/director Turner Clay’s new apocalyptic tale ‘State of Emergency’ this coming April. The new to zombie feature will arrive on DVD across the US on the 16th April and stars Jay Hayden, Andy Stahl, Tori White, Scott Lilly, Kathryn Todd Norman, McKenna Jones, Loren Albanese. The DVD comes complete with the movie, two behind-the-scenes making of featurettes and additional deleted scenes. If you live in the UK however you’ll be able to run down to your local store and pick up a copy right now on DVD or Blu-ray. That is of course if your local high street store still exists in these tough financial times. Check out the US DVD artwork and full plot breakdown below.
“After an explosion unleashes the contents of a military bio-weapons plant, the unsuspecting populace is transformed into a roaming army of flesh-eating zombies. Trapped in the quarantine zone, Jim finds himself cut off, confused and fighting for his own survival. Contacted by a small band of others unaffected by the toxins, Jim sets out to reach their besieged warehouse. Becoming the survival group’s de-facto leader, he struggles to keep order as they hunker down, fortify their stronghold and arm themselves against the attacking mutants. Fragmentary radio reports from outside hint at a last-ditch government rescue plan.
But can the survivors hold out until help arrives…or will they succumb to the living hell of an undead apocalypse? Will anybody survive?”
