Photos ride in from the set of Nick Carter’s Dead 7

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

DEAD 7, the post-apocalyptic zombie Western that writer/director/Backstreet Boy Nick Carter is making for The Asylum, is currently filming, and if previous reports on the movie have left you wondering what such a project directed by a boy band member might look like, pictures have started emerging from the set that give some idea of what we're dealing with here.

In these images Instagrammed by those involved we have Carter, fellow Backstreet Boys Howie Dorough and A.J. McLean, 'N Sync's Joey Fatone, O-Town's Jacob Underwood, and 98 Degrees' Jeff Timmons in costume as their characters, and I have to admit… I may not be into their type of music, but their movie is starting to look kind of cool.

MADtv's Debra Wilson and Carter's wife Lauren Kitt Carter are also confirmed to be in the cast of the film, which tells of 

a ragtag band of gunslingers who must rid a small town of a zombie plague in a post-apocalyptic West.

DEAD 7 is expected to premiere on Syfy in the summer of 2016.
