New On Blu: The Battery

New this week from Scream Factory is The Battery, written and directed by Jeremy Gardner, and starring Adam Cronheim and Jeremy Gardner.

"Two former baseball players, Ben (Jeremy Gardner) and Mickey (Adam Cronheim), cut an aimless path across a desolate New England. They stick to the back roads and forests to steer clear of the shambling corpses that patrol the once bustling cities and towns. In order to survive, they must overcome the stark differences in each other's personalities — Ben embraces an increasingly feral, lawless, and nomadic lifestyle, while Mickey is unable to accept the harsh realities of the new world. Mickey refuses to engage in Ben’s violent games and longs for the creature comforts he once took for granted — a bed, a girl and a safe place to live.

When the men intercept a radio transmission from a seemingly thriving, protected community, Mickey will stop at nothing to find it, even though it is made perfectly clear that he is not welcome."

Bonus features include an audio commentary, a 90 minute making of documentary, outtake reel, theatrical trailer and a featurette on 'The Music of the Battery'.

The Battery is available now on Blu-ray, DVD, and Amazon Instant Video.
