Cool, we need more zombie flicks  8-) . Also good to see Asia Argento will probably have a role.  :knuddel:


Sort of off topic, am I only one of few people who liked the Dawn of the Dead remake?

Haven't seen it, but the original is one of my favourite films. I'm a bit sceptical of remakes.
I love the original film, 'The Haunting', but daren't watch the remake of that....

I liked the remake, but the original blows it away IMHO. It's barely a remake though, the plot is only very losely based on the original.

They re-envented the way the zombies are meant to be (see also "28 days" etc.). I especially enjoyed the cameo appearance of T. Savini :-)

By the way, on movies.yahoo.com there is nothing about the new Romero movie! :-?

Actually neither of those 2 movies were the first. Return of the Living Dead in 1984 was the first to move away from the slow lumbering zombies.

BRAINS!

From George Romero's Official Sit:

My fourth zombie flick, "Dead Reckoning", is percolating on "high boil" since the "Dawn of the Dead" remake made 27 million in its first weekend. There's a very good chance that "Dead Reckoning" will go into production soon.

Nothing about Land of the Dead, but they could be the same project.

BRAINS!

Yeah, I remember that one! :-D

Did "Shaun of the Dead" ever get a North American opening? I know Universal were not keen, in case it hurt the Dawn of the Dead Remake sales.

Yes. As a matter of fact it opened in a handful of theatres a week ago, and apparently it did so well it opened in alot more theatres yesterday. I havn't seen it yet, but it is getting great reviews from both critics and the general public. I'll probably go see it this week.

Cool! I've got the DVD here, and I still find it funny. The Humour is a little... um... English... but you should enjoy it.

Yeah, I was a bit cynical about it, but I saw an advance copy round a friend's house and really enjoyed it.

I think the only problem with it is the name... "My Life as a Zombie" would have been much better, and much more appt :-)
