RELEASE DATE: May 12, 2020
Zombie Fight Club, move over! On May 12th, 2020, Dread Central is releasing the Blu-ray for Redcon-1, an action/horror film from director Chee Keong Cheung (Bodyguard: A New Beginning) that’s been described as a mashup of The Raid and 28 Weeks Later (via SBM).
After a deadly viral outbreak, an elite squad of special forces soldiers must infiltrate a quarantine zone to rescue a scientist who holds the only cure to save mankind. In a last attempt to contain the mutated virus, they launch a final strike against the infected, risking all of humanity in the process.
The film stars Oris Erhuero (The Adventures of Sinbad TV series), Carlos Gallardo (Grindhouse), Mark Strange (Avengement, Ip Man 4), Katarina Leigh Waters (The Temptress in Women of Wrestling TV series), Martyn Ford (Fast & Furious 9) and Akira Koieyama (Samurai Marathon 1855).
Pre-order Redcon-1 from Amazon.com today!
I wonder what took so long for it to get a state-side release. Looks cool and has a ton of creative talent involved. Katarina Waters’ transition from wrestling to film has been an interesting journey.
