Director Matthijs Heijningen Jr., whose big screen debut, 'The Thing' comes out next week, is hoping to move onto his new project soon, a zombie movie. 'The Thing' is a prequel to the original John Carpenter movie. If it is as good as it looks, then maybe this guy has what it takes for a good zombie flick. We'll see.
His next project directing "Army of the Dead" with producer Zack Snyder, who also produced the remake of "Dawn of the Dead" will be about a zombie outbreak in Las Vegas. The plot has the U.S. military building a wall around 'Sin City' to keep the zombies, and those who are stuck, inside. Sounds a bit like the game Fallout New Vegas to me. Some of the twists in this zombie flick are, the undead will not be the typical slow moving zombies. They'll be fast. And, the zombie disease will not spread through biting, but through sex. In fact, these zombies will basically be raping the non-infected, turning them into zombies, and producing hybrid human/zombie babies. So I guess this makes the movie about half-zombies, or something. Anyway it sounds quite repulsive. But if 'The Thing' is a flop next week, it all might never see the light of day.
