You will find The Walking Dead rather tame after watching Rise of the Zombies, which offers tenfold the amount of blood and torn limbs than the TV series. A group of survivors hide on Alcatraz Island to escape from rising zombie hordes. When their refuge is overrun, the group splits up, some seeking a cure and the others seeking a way to survive.

When a werewolf virus is unleashed upon New York, the world's only chance at survival lies with an infected wildlife photographer (Ariana Richards, the now fully grown little girl from Jurassic Park) and an Army general who is determined to find the cure. Meanwhile, a rogue general wants to establish a new canine super-army. Fans of werewolves running amok and over-the-top CGI are well served in this dog-eat-man movie.

In a futuristic world, a group of reporters are covering the unveiling of a new facility that is maintained by robot prototypes. When one of the robots goes haywire, this utopian place soon turns into a bloody battlefield, and the reporters find themselves fighting for their lives against a horde of robots on a killing rampage. A CGI-heavy tale of machines gone very bad.

In this modern take on the children's tale Jack and the Beanstalk, giant beanstalk brings Jack to a land in the clouds filled with evil beasts. When the creatures make their way to the ground, Jack has the mighty task of stopping them from destroying earth and everyone in it. Big and bogus, like all good mockbusters should be.

As suggested by its title, this disaster movie follows a commercial airliner which gets trapped within a ring of erupting volcanoes. But when the relentless onslaught of lava and ash causes fear and distrust amongst the hapless passengers, it isn't just the volcanoes that pose threat. Aviaphobes beware.
