The official teaser trailer and poster for new independent horror comedy DAISY DERKINS AND THE DINOSAUR APOCALYPSE have been released, written and directed by Mark Mackner and Bob Kaplan, and starring WWE Wrestling Legend and Hall of Famer Nikolai Volkoff in his final film role.

In the film, an evil sorcerer teams up with a mad scientist to unleash Dinosaur Hell on Earth, and only Daisy Derkins and a hero from the future can stop them! Daisy and Nikolai team up to fight in the Dinosaur Apocalypse, while also battling the sorcerer and his evil crew, a demented henchman, The Mummy Cop, and so much more.

Daisy Derkins & The Dinosaur Apocalypse Teaser Trailer

The trailer kicks off with a fun punk rock song called “Daisy Kicks Ass” as we see a montage of action-packed fighting, female-objectifying wrestling, and a poster that says “Wu-Tang is For The Children.” It’s as campy and no-budget as you would expect, and even sent me on a trip down memory lane when I made films like this in middle school. But as a fan of camp, hopefully it will live up to the potential comedy goldmine that is present with its lack of all other production values for a grand total of 2 hours. So let’s give it a chance!

Daisy Derkins and the Dinosaur Apocalypse is currently in post-production, expected to be released in early 2020.

From humble beginnings as a bisexual art kid who drank more coffee than a 40-year-old author, Remy now holds a BFA in Film Production from Chapman University and is a proud member of the HorrorBuzz team (and still a bisexual art kid who drinks too much coffee). They were first introduced to the world of horror and camp when their grandma showed them The Rocky Horror Picture Show at age 5, and never looked back. When they're not writing cartoons or working on movies, one can spot them in various clubs around Los Angeles performing very, very self-deprecating standup comedy. Howdy ho!

    Hi! I’m making this movie. Thanks for the write-up. Just chiming in to assure you that yes, there are dinosaurs in the movie. We’re using stop motion though, and that takes time. Follow the movie’s page on FB and keep up with our progress. Thanks again!
