With the season 2 premiere of Syfy's Z Nation quickly approaching, a new teaser trailer has been released to sink your teeth into. Also in this morning's round-up: a preview video showcasing Doom's gory kills and a plethora of new images from The Funhouse Massacre.
Z Nation Season 2: Debuting September 11th at 10:00 pm EST, the second season premiere of Z Nation picks up after the cliffhanger of last season's final episode, "Doctor of the Dead." The survivors of the first season (which racked up quite the body count) return for the 15-episode sophomore season with the mission to get Murphy to California more urgent than ever before.
Season 1 synopsis: "Z Nation starts three years after the zombie virus has gutted the country, a team of everyday heroes must transport the only known survivor of the plague from New York to California, where the last functioning viral lab waits for his blood. Although the antibodies he carries are the world’s last, best hope for a vaccine, he hides a dark secret that threatens them all. With humankind’s survival at stake, the ragtag band embarks on a journey of survival across three thousand miles of rusted-out post-apocalyptic America."

Doom: In this video, Bethesda Softworks shows us what it takes to make a bloody kill in an interview with id Software. Set on a demon-infested Mars, DOOM is due out in the spring of 2016.
"Game Description:

Relentless demons, impossibly destructive guns, and fast, fluid movement provide the foundation for intense, first-person combat – whether you’re obliterating demon hordes through the depths of Hell in the single-player campaign, or competing against your friends in numerous multiplayer modes. Expand your gameplay experience using DOOM SnapMap game editor to easily create, play, and share your content with the world.
Story:
You’ve come here for a reason. The Union Aerospace Corporation’s massive research facility on Mars is overwhelmed by fierce and powerful demons, and only one person stands between their world and ours. As the lone DOOM Marine, you’ve been activated to do one thing – kill them all.
Key Features:
