PopGeeks Interviews Rene Perez, Director of ‘The Burning Dead’
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiPkuxMIQWU The Burning Dead, originally titled Volcano Zombies, the movie is about, obviously, zombies that come from a volcano. It features Danny Trejo (Machete) as a Native American called Night Wolf who warns about the lava drooling zombies and Tom Downey (Sorority Party Massacre) as a sheriff trying to rescue a family from the eldritch eruption. The film will be out March 3 on digital and VOD from Uncork’d Entertainment. A DVD is coming April 7. It looks cheerfully nuts.

I got into film making through the side door. I was a musician first and I started making music videos for my band’s publisher. Once
