UPDATE: 'Diary of the Dead 2' Begins Shooting This September

New synopsis inside. Contrary to reports, Diary of the Dead 2 has NOT begun shooting yet, although we have received official confirmation that George A. Romero will be getting behind the lens for another zombie pic on September 15th in Toronto, Canada. Casting has yet to be revealed, watch for updates soon. The NEW synopsis can be found inside.

Our heroes, trapped in a mansion, battle waves of ravenous zombies, barely escaping alive. In search of a safe place to settle, they commandeer an abandoned ferry and sail to a deserted island, only to find that it is already populated by a civilization of the dead… a violent siege set in the middle of nowhere, a desperate struggle for survival and peace, between two tribes: the living and the living dead.

We don't need the first-person style for this one!

NNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I'd rather see the Prom Night remake than sit through this bullshit. It hurts all the more knowing that it comes from Romero.

Ugh first person movies are over done it was nice at first now its tedious. Hopefully this time they have better actors compared to the last film.

I hate where this is going. Civilized zombies? That takes all the scary out of them.

I hate watching this old, senile man slowly take back all the greatness that he used to be...

Is it me or does this pic not have proper grammar. George's A. Romero's? Lol. I hope, like most of you, that this is not in 1st person again. It might be good, but the whole civilized zombie thing.....doesn't sound too good.

I absolutely loved Diary of the Dead. I may be in the minority on that one, but I do not care. Romero took the zombie genre (which he almost single-handedly created) to a new level. One has to take his films on their own terms in order to appreciate them. I am glad that he's making another film.

You gotta be freaking kidding me! This really pisses me off. Not because the last movie was complete and utter buttcrack, but because I know I'm going to eventually buy it. It's hard being a horror fan in your thirties. I spend way too much money supporting washed up artists that I used to idolize. Pleatherface out.......

I honestly feel sorry for people that are stoked for this...you like bad movies.

I honestly can't believe the collective mindset here would prefer the upcoming Michael Bay/Friday The 13th travesty over this. Wait, yeah, I can. Sad, sad, sad lot you are.

I'd rather watch Jason hack people up for 90 minutes than watch some dorks I've never heard of film each other without a steady cam. It's not 1999 anymore Ziltoid. Why do people hate on Michael Bay so much? Like it or not, I think he's done alot for this generation as far as horror is concerned. Both Chainsaws were great! Amityville Horror was not that bad. The Unborn is promising. Transformers was good. People act like this dude killed their grandmother. Pleatherface out.......

Ah. There we go. I just got done posting three rather positive comments, and thought maybe I've been drugged with that happy pill from Brain Candy. But now I can happily take a digi-dump all over this news. Diary of George Romero's Political Agenda 2. I personally think he should have stopped at Day of the Dead, the highlight of his career.

The first one was soooo good even for a zombie film. I think were getting into a era of first person filming. Its pretty interesting how many ideas u can think of with the first person and it really worked well with this film and hopefully its sequel.

Why do they consider Diary part of the series? I'm pretty sure Romero himself has stated that this is a whole different beast.

Romero hasn't had a KICK ASS zombie movie since Dawn.Time to get back to your roots.

I kinda liked the first movie, a big part of why i liked it is how it ended. But making a sequel, oh god no! even if i liked the first one, i really dont want a sequel...

His films have a message, and a socially relevant one. Too bad he can't blow stuff up real good like Michael Bay can.
