We kid you not…

Also known as Osombie: The Axis of Evil Dead, the film kicks off with Colorado yoga instructor Dusty (Eve Mauro) heading to Afghanistan on a desperate rescue mission to save her brother, Derek (Jason Wade), a conspiracy theorist who is convinced Osama bin Laden is still alive. After arriving, Dusty falls in with a team of Nato commandos on a secret assignment and soon discovers that Derek is not so crazy after all: Osama has in fact returned from the dead and is making an army of zombie terrorists! When the soldiers crash headlong into the growing zombie apocalypse, Dusty and the troops must destroy the root of the zombie insurgency before it infests the rest of the world.

It's certainly not uncommon for an "American Idol" cast-off to go on and do amazing things. Jennifer Hudson, who ended up in seventh place on season three, went on to win an Oscar for her role in "Dreamgirls," season two runner-up Clay Aiken has sold 4.9 million albums and fourth-place finisher Chris Daughtry had two consecutive #1 albums on the Billboard charts.

Hoping to add his name to that list is Colton Dixon. In a shocking elimination on last week's episode, the 20-year-old rocker was sent home after appearing for the first time in the bottom three, finishing out his "Idol" run in seventh place. But Dixon isn't too heartbroken over his elimination, as he's already thinking about the next step in his career: his debut album.

But this year, I figured “Why put you through all the boring prose when what the people really want to see are pictures?” So get those rum runners out, fire up that Spf 50, and prepare yourself for this.
