Unless you’ve been living under a rock or kidnapped by pirates, and, probably, even if you have been, you’ve heard that ‘The Burrowers’ is now out on DVD. The trailer on YouTube is here. It’s probably already sold out, checked out, rented out, and worn out everywhere you’d want it, but in case some genre geek is able to scrounge you up a copy, here are some links to possible outlets: Netflix, Blockbuster, and, for those who absolutely, positively must own it, Amazon. So why are you still reading this? Get thee scrounging!

Posted in Acting Projects, Video (Online & Home)Burrowers Trailer Released
In anticipation of next week’s DVD release of The Burrowers, Lionsgate has posted the official trailer for the film here, hosted by the kind folks at Shock Till You Drop. I’d be a dang liar if I said I wasn’t a bit disappointed that audiences weren’t going to see this Horror-Western on a big screen. (It looks terrific that large, and them dirt-dwellers, well, seein’ them babies at 50 feet high ain’t gonna be helpin’ your dreamin’ none. And isn’t that why you see them sorta picture shows?) Regardless, JT Petty and the gang made a fun fusion of the two genres, one I really enjoyed…almost as much as I enjoyed gettin’ paid to ride horses.
"The Burrowers" DVD information announced!
William’s film The Burrowers will be released on DVD on April 21st:
It is 1879 in the Dakota Territories. A handful of brave pioneers maintain isolated settlements in the badlands beyond civilization. Irish Immigrant Fergus Coffey is near to winning the hand of his beloved Maryanne when she is suddenly taken from him, her family brutally abducted in a nighttime attack on their homestead. Suspicion falls immediately on hostile Indians. Experienced Indian fighters Will Parcher and John Clay form a posse and set out to rescue the kidnapped settlers, taking along a naïve teenager hoping to prove himself a man, an ex-slave looking to find his place in the world and their ranch-hand, Coffey. But as men vanish in the night and horrific evidence accumulates with the dead and dying, the group discovers that their prey is far more terrifying than anything human, and their prospects are far more terrible than death.
DVD special features include “The Burrowers: Making a Horror Western” and “Digging up The Burrowers: Creating the Monster” featurettes and audio commentary with writer/director JT Petty and actor Karl Geary. For more information, check out BloodyDisgusting.com for details.
