We learned this past weekend that Rob Hall's Almost Human FX will be tackling Overture Films' The Crazies, their remake of the classic George A. Romero film being helmed by Breck Eisner. Almost Human is responsible for the FX in QUARANTINE, VACANCY, PINEAPPLE EXPRESS and the ongoing TERMINATOR series, THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES. "As a fan of the original we are super excited to be working on this re-imagining of the cult film," Hall tells B-D when we called to confirm the news. "The script is excellent. One of the best I've read in recent memory and there's more than plenty to keep us busy. It definitely delivers." Starring Timothy Olyphant, the film is slated for release on September 25th.

ahhhh remakes remakes remakes......
If you dont see anymore posts from me its because i killed myself rather than hear about another remake.
GOODBYE EVERYONE! TELL MY MOTHER I'M SORRY!
Romero's original was a template for what would become Dawn of the Dead a few years later in terms of style and editing. This will most likely not resemble that movie at all. Good or bad? We'll see.
So don't rid yourself 'til you watch it ha ha. Never saw the original, so can't say much on this but...Yeah. Yay. Woo...hoo...Another remake. *Sighs* Past the hose, please.
I have said this before, does nobody have any of their own ideas for horror movies anymore. How about a remake of Puppet Master!!! HA-HA!! This is starting to get old.
"i just bought the puppet master box set with puppet master"..."that would be a great franchise to reboot". Not Cool!!
