Jules Verne's Mysterious Island Lands On DVD May 29th (Sci-Fi Movie)

Green Apple Entertainment Proudly Presents Jules Verne's Mysterious Island. An Adventure Tale for the Entire Family. Drawing 2 Million Viewers During its Feb. Premiere on the SyFy Channel, Re-Imagining of Beloved Literary Classic Lands on DVD May 29th

American history meets fantasy in one of the greatest action-adventure tales of all time, Jules Verne's Mysterious Island, a newly updated cinematic adaptation of the beloved literary classic, The Mysterious Island (1874), landing on DVD May 29 from Green Apple Entertainment.

As famine and death ravage Richmond, Va., five northern Civil War POWs, including Emmy Award-winner, Pruitt Taylor Vince (AMC's The Walking Dead, JFK, Drive Angry, Constantine) and Lochlyn Munro (Dead Man on Campus, White Chicks), plan a daring escape by hijacking a hot air balloon. Drifting through the night, they wake to find themselves marooned on a desert island ... but they're not alone.

Littered with wreckage, the island is home to a cast of survivors who have been lost in space and time, including Abby and Jules Fogg (Susie Arbromeit, Battle: Los Angeles, and Gina Holden, Saw 3-D, Alien vs. Predator), two young women from modern times who become stranded while flying over the Bermuda Triangle.

Forced to defend themselves against vicious pirates, terrifying creatures and a volcano that's ready to blow, they must find a way to survive. Their only hope to escape the island lies with its longest resident, Captain Nemo (W. Morgan Sheppard, Star Trek, Transformers, Gods and Generals). With his help, they craft another plan ... But will they make it before the island claims them all forever?

Directed by Mark Sheppard (Battlestar Galactica, Supernatural, Firefly, Warehouse 13), who makes a cameo appearance as a young Nemo (the adult role portrayed by his real-life father). You can visit the official website for Jules Verne's Mysterious Island to learn more.

Buffet Bliss or Southern Swing-and-a-Miss? A Bite at Kacey’s in Huntsville

  Walk through the doors of Kacey’s Country Cooking in Huntsville and you’re greeted by the comforting smell of fried chicken, collard greens, and cornbread that could double as perfume for any true Southerner. This is where the buffet line reigns supreme, the sweet tea flows endlessly, and dessert is always just an arm’s reach away. For many locals, Kacey’s is a comfort food paradise. Fans brag about the fried green tomatoes, juicy pork chops, slow-cooked beef tips, and banana pudding that deserves its own holiday. The staff are another highlight—quick with refills, friendly enough to feel like family, and the kind of people who can make a buffet feel like Sunday dinner at grandma’s. But Kacey’s has its critics too. Some diners rave about “the best bang for your buck in town,” while others complain that the food sometimes veers into “straight-from-the-can” territory.
