Detention of the Dead kicked off its limited theatrical release last week and will be headed to DVD later this month. We've already covered a few clip releases and Anchor Bay has provided us with a brand new zombie teacher clip.

"Anchor Bay Entertainment holds everyone after class with the July 23rd DVD release of Detention of the Dead. Already a hit at such festivals as FrightFest, Glasgow Film Festival and HorrorHound Weekend, this side-splitting mix of zombies and teen-angst stars Jacob Zacher (“Greek”), Alexa Nikolas (“The Walking Dead”), Christa B. Allen (“Revenge”), Jayson Blair (“The New Normal”), Justin Chon (the Twilight franchise) and Max Adler (“Glee”). The SRP for the DVD is $19.98. In addition, fans will be able to experience Detention of the Dead on the big screen at selected theaters nationwide on June 28th. The student body-feast will also be available On Demand starting June 18th.

THE BREAKFAST CLUB meets ZOMBIELAND in this head-busting zombedy. A group of teenagers trapped in detention, fight for survival after their classmates turn into a ravenous zombie horde. Can a cheerleader, a stoner, a jock, a bully, a goth, and a nerd put aside their differences for one night to take on the undead? Will they live to see the morning? Fat chance! This is High School after all.

Bonus features include audio commentary by Writer/Director Alex Craig Mann and “Detention of the Dead: Behind The Scenes” featurette. Detention of the Dead will delight fans and create a new generation of zombie fans!"
