Bloody Bits #01 December 30, 2014 Horror Dvd/Blu-ray Releases

Welcome to the first every weekly edition of Bloody Bits Horror Dvd/Blu-ray releases recap brought to you by My Bloody Podcast and Horrorphilia.com. The plan every week is to bring you brief reviews, recaps and recommendations for a majority of the horror releases that particular Tuesday. Occasionally we’ll feature other genre releases such as action and Asian crime thrillers. When possible I’ll also include purchase links, synopsis and trailers for each release. Every week I’ll have a pick of the week, a movie that I highly recommend to purchase, usually because of the content of the film or because the release is so jam packed with special features it can’t be passed up. Enjoy!

App

APP is the first film made with the intentional inclusion of content on a second screen. The movie s free accompanying app, IRIS, that audiences are encouraged to download, is equipped with sonic technology that triggers additional content during the movie, enhancing the viewing experience in real-time as the plot unfolds.

Anna, a student at the University of Amsterdam, lives with her best friend Sophie and balances psychology classes with supporting her brother and his recovery following a traumatic motorcycle accident. She s never far from her cellphone, and after a night of partying in the dorms, Anna wakes up groggy and hungover only to find that a new app has been inexplicably added to it. Initially helpful and clever, IRIS soon begins behaving mysteriously, answering personal questions it shouldnt know the answers to, and sending inappropriate images to her contacts. When it becomes clear she cant simply delete the unwanted evil app, Anna s efforts to confront it will set in motion a fearful series of events that will put her life, and that of her roommate and her fragile brother, in fatal danger.

Bonus Features include Director Commentary and Special FX Featurette
