DEAD HEAT - 4K ULTRA HD / BLU-RAY (Limited Edition)
£36.00
Detectives Doug Bigelow and Roger Mortis have just tried, and failed,
to take down a ring of master thieves who have been targeting high end
jewelry dealers. While orchestrating a massive siege, the thieves are
violently eliminated; one blown apart and the other crushed. While being
autopsied, the forensic pathologist makes an inexplicable discovery:
the "dead" men were already dead before being "killed." In other words,
they were zombies. With little information to go on besides the presence
of a strange man-made substance in the cadaver's flesh, Bigelow and
Mortis attempt to piece together the mystery, which eventually leads
them to a chemical plant, wherein Mortis, true to his name, winds up
killed by a hulking zombie. But who’s better to fight zombie criminals
than a zombie cop?
A
novel take on the zombie film, Oscar nominee Mark Goldblatt’s (The
Punisher) directorial debut, DEAD HEAT is a tightly paced and darkly
comedic action-horror film featuring plentiful gore effects and with an
all-star cast, headlined by Emmy nominees Treat Williams (Things to Do
in Denver When You’re Dead), Joe Piscopo (Wise Guys), Darren McGavin
(Kolchak: The Night Stalker), alongside horror icon Vincent Price
(Theatre of Blood) in one of his final roles. Vinegar Syndrome proudly
