Cast for Romero's New Zombie film
Cast Revealed for Romero's New Zombie Film
Source: Variety October 3, 2008 Alan Van Sprang, Kenneth Welsh (The Fog remake), Kathleen Munroe (Durham County), Devon Bostick (Saw IV), Richard Fitzpatrick (Breach), Stefano Colacitti and Athena Karkanis (Saw IV) are starring in George Romero's untitled zombie film. Spring and Bostick each played roles in Romero's Land of the Dead, the former returned as another character in Diary of the Dead. Romero began principal photography on the latest chapter in his undead saga this week. According to Variety, the plot involves inhabitants of an isolated island (confirming what ShockTillYouDrop.com reported here) off the North American coast who find their relatives rising from the dead to eat their kin. The leaders of the island feud over whether or not to kill their reanimated relatives or preserve them in hopes of finding a cure. |
I'm going to put a large bet on this film being called Island Of The Dead.

George A. Romero's SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD
George A. Romero's latest zombie effort has had the title "...of the dead" for some time now, where many fans speculated it would eventually be called Island of the Dead, being that it's appropriately set on a small island town. Luckily the film didn't receive that name, and according to this year Toronto International Film Festival listing, it's now titled Survival of the Dead.
http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/9092/sodb.jpg The story follows on a small island off North America's coast, the dead rise to menace the living. Yet, the islanders can't bring themselves to exterminate their loved ones despite the growing danger from those they once held dear. A rebel among them hunts down all the zombies he can find only to be banished from the island for assassinating his neighbors and friends. On the mainland, bent on revenge, he encounters a small band of survivors in in search of an oasis on which to build a new life. Barely surviving an attack from a mass of ravenous flesh-eaters they commandeer a zombie-infested ferry and sail to the island. There, to their horror, they discover the locals have chained the dead inside their homes, pretending to live "normal" lives...with bloody consequences. http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/2...fthedead10.jpg http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/6...fthedead30.jpg http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/6...fthedead20.jpg What ensues is a desperate struggle for survival and the answer to a question never posed in Romero's Dead films: Can the living ever live in peace with the dead? In addition, a stack of new images have been posted on the TIFF website as the film will have its World Premiere at the "Midnight Madness" section come September. "We're in the final stages of post-production and it's great to come up for air and find out the film's been chosen to appear at the Festival. It's just a terrific honor."...says Romero.
