Entertainment One will release the 2009 science fiction-horror movie Bio-Dead on DVD on July 26 for a list price of $24.98.
Hazmat suits are the uniform of the day in Bio-Dead.
Touted by its distributor as “Resident Evil meets Alien,” Bio-Dead zeroes in on the aftermath of a biological disaster in Southern California that’s contaminated some 4000 square miles, turning it into a wasteland known as “The Zone.” A grisly tomb for 12 million infected corpses, it’s also home to a vicious predator that has even nastier plans in store for the rest of the human race. Pity the poor hazmat team that enters a seemingly uninhabited structure in the middle of “The Zone” in search of survivors…
Written and directed by Stephen J. Hadden and starring Matthew Norton, Derek Long and Tony Williams, the film premiered as a Video-on-Demand title in August, 2009.
Bonus features on the DVD include the following:

Bio-Dead is a Time Warner Video-On-Demand selection for 2009 and the film blends science fiction with horror, in a grotesque fashion. A film with a claustrophobic feel, Bio-Dead offers a good time, but skimps on the size of cast and settings. A second film for director Stephen J. Hadden, fans can check this film out if you feel you can handle the gore!
The plot is simple, direct and revolves around four workers who must investigate the contaminated "Zone." The story takes place after a bio-terrorist attack in southern California. Millions are dead and a corporation has been given the green light to find survivors, retrieve bodies, and generally clean up the "Zone." However, things get complicated when a supposed safe area turns out to be a haven for the genetically mutated. Can this team of four bio-hazard workers (Tony Williams, Jacob Gentry,...

Stephen J. Hadden, writer/director of the new sci-fi shocker Bio-dead, got in touch with the news that his movie (which we previously reported on here) has been picked up by Lightning Media for North American and UK distribution. He also passed on a couple of new exclusive pics, which you can see below.
Bio-dead, which was produced by Manfred Drews II and stars Socket’s Derek Long, Matthew C. Norton, Tony Williams (first photo), Rick Hall and Jacob W. Gentry (second photo), takes place in a near future where Southern California has been rendered uninhabitable by a bioterrorist attack. A hazmat team enters a contaminated region known as “The Zone,” and begin to suffer frightening hallucinations as well as attacks by a vicious predator. “We are thrilled that Bio-dead has found a home with Lightning Media,” Hadden says. “I was immediately impressed with Lightning’s vast catalog of horror,...

Writer/director Stephen J. Hadden sent along the exclusive makeup FX photo seen below and some info on his new fright feature Bio-dead. The pic features actor Derek Long, recently seen in Socket, in the midst of a sequence in which prosthetics “were applied to his face and torso to simulate knife wounds, burns and a gouged-out eye,” Hadden tells us.
Long stars in Bio-dead as Benson, leader of a hazmat team sent to search for survivors after terrorists unleash a lethal toxic weapon into the atmosphere over Southern California. Deep within the uninhabitable region known as “The Zone,” they come across what appears to be an empty building, but after venturing inside, they soon find themselves being stalked by a vicious predator, while suffering from frightening hallucinations.
“Bio-dead was inspired by my love for postapocalyptic cinema, especially the films made by the Italians in the early 1980s,” Hadden says.
