Thread of the Living Dead
 

Ok we all love Zombie's here at Zilvia and there's almost always some Lovely Zombie news that will make you drool (blood).

So here we go. All Zombie news and related comments can go here.

I'll start it off with:

George Romero's Diary of the Dead just got picked up for US and Mexico distribution. For those not up to date, George completely cut out the Hollywood studio's funding and funded the whole movie himself (I'm sure he had some other source, but we get the point).

The movie takes place actually during the original Night of the Living Dead as if it took place today. But the movie is a narrative from survivors through handheld footage. The reviews from the premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival are ACTUALLY saying that it's a great movie AND SCARY! I can't wait to see this bad boy.

The Weinstein Co. picked it up for distribution. There's no release date yet that I know of, but I'll let you know as soon as I find out.


Secondly 28 Weeks Later just came out on DVD. IGN gave it an 8. Said it's a worthwile DVD for sure. I'll have to ask for that for X-Mas. ;)

zombie movies own

cant wait for 28 months later ;)

Doesn't that sound like it's about a baby? :keke: Zombie newborns are the worst...though I don't think we've seen them.

I wanna find some info on that other Zombie movie coming out...that's based on that book. WWZ I think it's called.

i should burn you these german zombie movies I have.

they are tits

Ill be needing copies. Id make a movie of zombie pirates attacking cruise ships and spreading across the nations from the seas.

Zombie-Ninja movie! Someone make this happen, lol.
Love the original 'Night of the Living Dead' and 'Sean of the Dead'.

I would LOVE TO film a Zombie movie or even write one. I constantly think of different scenario's to start a film off. I think the move "everyday" you make it, the scary it is. That's why I don't like the Resident Evil movie's.

My favorite scenario is: Guy and his wife (I usually think of my wife and I) are at the Doc's office maybe to meet the doc about having a baby or something to that effect. They check in...wait in the lobby...read some magazines...10 min later they call the couple back...sit'em in a room...they joke around with stuff int he room...seems like a hella long time...hear mad noise all of sudden...screams, crashing etc...he peeks out the door into the hall, and all hell has broke loose in the clinic...slams the door shut, locks it...she's like "WTF is going on?!"...dude's like "I don't fuckin know but..." BAM!...Something pounding on the door...they escape the room through the ceiling tile...

That's a good start I think. IMO.

28 Weeks Later?! You missed it in the theatre???? How dare you call yourself a zombie fan.

Who said they missed it in the theater? I seen it the first day...:mepoke:

yea me too

liked it more than the first one.

Ive never been a huge zombie movie fan...although I practically shit my pants watching shaun of the dead, I loved that movie. Also loved hot fuzz too, but thats a different topic.

Personally Im not a big fan of gore in movies, something like shaun of the dead where its made out to be comedic is fine. Ive seen some gruesome shit in my life and I really dont like to recall it.

Well this thread is not for you...thanks for sharing. :ugh:

man, are you people having dreams about zombies?

ive been having some crazy zombies dreams. it always starts me having to protect someone but, they dont cooperate and they end up dead or infected. i always end up frustrated when i wake up.

also whats up with my dreams... having no weapons, i have to usually run and hide or fight bared handed. its messed up.

Dude, I CONSTANTLY have zombie dreams. I love'em. They are usually upbeat and I'm bustin heads and narrowly escaping.

Planet Terror from Grindhouse was probably the last Zombiesque movie I dug. Did anybody see Fido? Was kinda interested in that one but it didn't really open wide.

I as wondering how Planet Terror was. I'll have to rent that one before buying it. It looked a little over the top.

I loved Grindhouse - so over the top, violent, gory and awesome. You'll be bummed you didn't see it in the theater.

I heard, but check it out for yourselfs that Broken lizard(Super troopers, Beer Fest & Club Dread) was making a zombie flick, yes those same wacky guys are making a serious zombie flick, means it would slide under horror, not comedy, can someone boost up my rep for this find?
but i know for sure, super troopers 2 is announced!!! woah!

world war Z is one of the best books ive read when it comes to zombies and whatnot...also, how to survive a zombie uprising is awesome as well!!

i read the first few chapter on the zombie survival guide, it was kinda boring me

Here are some behind the scene clips of Diary of the Dead:

I read a review yesterday that was extremely positive. I think I'm gonna pick this and Monster Squad SE 20th Ann. DVD from Amazon next week.

Damn, I haven't seen Monster Squad in forever, such a good movie.

Yea, they don't make movies like that anymore. It had such an awesome plot and the cast is so memorable. "Wolfmans got NARDS!".

They just released the 20th Ann Edition DVD. Now THAT makes me feel old.
