Another Night of the Living Dead remake? Oh yes…

Review: Dr. Horrible

From the moment Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog hit the intardwebz, fans of musical comedies, with a superhero hook have been in seventh heaven. While there have been a couple of attempts to tell a Dr. Horrible origin story, the official take on the villain’s past can only be found in the pages of Dr. Horrible #1 from Dark Horse Comics.

Review: Nola #1

Scorned and left for dead by the man she thought she loved, Nola Thomas returns to the flooded city of New Orleans a different woman than she was prior to the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina. What sequence of events could change a beautiful woman looking for love to a scarred woman looking for revenge?

Another Night of the Living Dead remake? Oh yes…

Word around Hollywood this morning is the news that Night of the Living Dead, is getting a remake. Interestingly, the zombie horror film will not involve George Romero, but it will be a 3D CGI origin story. CGI zombies? Sign me up.

Titled “Night of the Living Dead: Origins,” the re-imagining is being directed by newcomer Zebediah de Soto and produced by Simon West and Simon West Productions president Jib Polhemus.

As much as I like the zombie genre (my Kung-Fu- Zombie-Western movie is still in the works), I can’t help but wonder what an all CGI zombie flick will bring to the table. Sure, the ability to create a realistic looking human is great, and has done wonders for companies like Disney and Dreamworks, but pairing CGI with horror might make it hard to find an audience in the long run.
