Now that we’re all caught up and we’re done with our trip down memory lane allow me to blow your mind – According to FirstShowing.net there is actually a big screen adaptation of the old school video game in the works. …. Seriously?? That’s awesome!
Not only is there a flick in the works based on the 1993 video game but apparently this thing is cruising right along! There’s already a script completed by John Darko, who’s producing alongside April Wade and Ahmed al Baker. Currently the project is searching for financiers and I get the feeling they’re going to find some – soon!
It happened one typical night in suburbia: two best friends amongst a sea of teenage angst battle for safety against the mysterious uprising of neighborhood zombies.
While that’s the simple plot for the game apparently the film will be its own coming-of-age high school story, while borrowing a bit from the video game of course. For example you can bet ‘Zeke’ and ‘Julie’ will be front and center! Natch!
I don’t know about the rest of you but I’m stoked about this news! The potential here is huge! You can bet we’ll be keeping a close eye on this one so be sure to check back soon for updates!
