Sure, we may get Abraham Lincoln fighting vampires later this year, but before that even happens, you’ll be getting another American icon kicking some supernatural ass and leaving historical fact at the door.
That’s right, the film FDR: American Badass! is a real film starring the likes of Bruce McGill (Animal House), Ray Wise (Twin Peaks), Kevin Sorbo (Hercules) , Lin Shaye (Austin Powers Films), and Barry Bostwick (Rocky Horror Picture Show) as Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Here’s a brief synopsis if you don’t believe us.
In this throwback to the original 1966 Batman movie, FDR rides a “wheelchair of death” to stop the world from werewolves who carry the polio virus, including werewolf versions of Hitler, Mussolini, and Emperor Hirohito.
Imagine FDR taking on Nazi werewolves, riding a gun-wielding wheelchair, and saying things like “F*ck Polio!”. That’s exactly what you’re going to get from the “straight to Netflix” writing/directing duo of Ross Patterson and Garret Brawith in this flick.
Take a look at the awe inspiring trailer after the jump, and keep your eyes on all forms of distribution for when this movie hits later this year.

Imagine the raunchiness of Animal House mashed with the camaraderie of college football. That’s exactly what you’ve been missing out on if you haven’t caught Blue Mountain State on Spike.
Now entering their second season, the show promises to push the envelope even more this year, with some big names, crazier scenes, and more fun you can shake a stick at.
We recently got to sit down with one of the stars of the show, Darin Brooks, who plays Alex Moran, about some of the awesomeness we can expect to see this year, as Blue Mountain State tops off it’s full 13-episode season run. Check it out!
The Flickcast: Right off the bat, what can we expect to see in season 2?
Darin Brooks: Oh, some awesome stuff. Things just get crazy. I know we have Denise Richards coming in for a cameo, and things get pretty steamy. Also, we have Frankie Shaw joining in as Sammy’s sister who has a bit of an obsession with Alex, so you can imagine how awkward things are going to get.
