Thank You For Your Service

Ah, the ole Veterans Of Foreign War hall. The place where veterans go after they leave the service to be among their own, drink beer at cost and reminisce about bring democracy to the world.

Also, the place where the ladies go to find anonymous sex.

Veterans and guests at VFW Post 246 offer a toast.
Better than a hog killin’

Sorry, civilian, unless you are an actual veteran they won’t let you in.

Military service has its privileges.

I’m very surprised that no one has used this place as a setting or a title before. Just seems like a very sexy concept with a lot of potential: soldiers, alcohol, weapons, loose women.

Now shlock director Joe Begos (Almost Human, The Mind’s Eye) has  added some zombies mutants and is making VFW:

A group of war veterans must defend their local VFW post and an innocent teen against a deranged drug dealer and his relentless army of punk mutants.

The movie features Stephen Lang, Martin Kove, William Sadler, Fred Williamson and David Patrick Kelly. That is a really solid lineup of bad-asses.

Here are some leaked (?) promotional photos:

“We saw her first.”
Punk mutant gang members! Not zombies!
Sadler is ready for that kitchen remodel.

I don’t get where these photos come from. The quality is trash. Are they scans from Fangoria or something? Is this a viral campaign? Is it 2004?

VFW is in post-production right now. No release date is set.
