The second season of CASTLEVANIA will be available on Netflix on October 26th, and will be twice the size of the first season, eight episodes instead of four. That’s great news, only I haven’t seen the FIRST season yet. Damn livestreaming. Is this series available on DVD yet? At least we can all share in the first image released from the forthcoming season. That’s it at the head of this article. Ooooh. Aaaaaaah. Nice, isn’t it? I expect the rest of the series will be just as pretty, but I’ll have to take their word for it until they finally give it a DVD release. Heck, I’d settle for on-demand.
The promising PATIENT ZERO, after getting yanked from its theatrical release date, WILL be getting a DVD release, three days before the second season of CASTLEVANIA hits the airwaves. Here’s the premise: “An unprecedented global pandemic of a super strain of rabies has turned the majority of humankind into highly intelligent, streamlined killers known as ‘The Infected.’ One victim…who is asymptomatic and can communicate with the infected, leads the last survivors on a hunt for Patient Zero and a cure.” Sounds, as I said, promising. But it also sounds like a mash-up of THE STRAIN and I AM LEGEND. Could be good, or could be derivative claptrap. Time will tell.
