DAY OF THE DEAD remake!
According to DARK HORIZONS:
Bryan Goluboff ("The Basketball Diaries") has apparently been contacted by Richard Rubinstein (producer on the upcoming "Dawn of the Dead" remake) about scripting a remake of "Day of the Dead." When there's no more room in hell...
mindless studio heads will walk the earth! Come on, do we really
need this remake?

I doubt he would do it as his plans are to conclude the series
with DEAD RECKONING, if it ever leaves development hell!
His on again off again relationship with Fox over the past year
appears to be off again. Apparently creative differences between the studio and Romero over the film's content has come to a head. Just let him make the movie already!

A slight hijack, are the Living Dead the same as zombies, or do they have "zombie" movies and "living dead" or "walking dead" movies (or is there another name that works for living dead?)

Day of the Dead: Contagium
Not sure if this was already posted but I was looking around upcominghorromovies.com and came across this movie Day of the Dead:Contagium. According to the director this is not a sequel, or a prequel (though it works like one) but rather an homage to Romero and his Dead trilogy learn more about the movie here

It's a low budget flick that trades on the Dead trilogy by using Day of the Dead in the title. Anyone seeing it thinking it's going to be like the Romero films will be sadly disappointed.

I read the interviews, and they don't seem to have any official ties with Romero (duh!) (Romero is busy getting his own films green lit) - what, so he won't notice this one?
What's to stop me making something like
Jurassic Park: DINO COPS
It says they're both working on "Creepshow" next - is this another rip off, or an official third sequel? Hmmmm

Yeah, in about 5 years we'll get our land remake.
"Congrats Mr. Romero on the completion of your new film" "Thanks, I just wish It was released before all of my remakes".

Sounds cool. There is another Day of the Dead 'movie' coming out called 'Contagium' or something like that. If you don't want to see it, don't. Knowone is forcing you.

Also, please keep in mind that it is ok for people to be pissed about this news as well.
