Ok, this looks like a little bit Dangerous Liaisons meets Dawn of the Dead… Looks HELLA fun, and you can get more info HERE at their official site. It has Sir Ian McKellen in it… YEAH, THAT one… I’ll be keeping my eyes open for this one.

(as usual: click the pic for FULL SIZE!)

I love tying up loose ends, as you know we did an interview with ***ALMOST*** everyone involved with the amazing clip A.D.

What?!?!? you haven’t seen it? OR read the awesome interview?!?!?! Where have you been, under an internet rock?  Don’t worry, the Zombieking has your back, for the clip and interview (if you can’t just scroll down) click HERE to see the clip and previous interview!

Well, I was all broken up that Reneee Tab was out of town when we finally got all this together… but Tarik got her a copy of the interview to her and she filled it out for all of you to see what a ‘feminine touch’ can bring to the mix!  I’m ALMOST tempted to slot this under my ongoing ‘Women in Horror: Not just screamers’ section… but because the response to A.D. has been so great, I decided to pop it up right away (even though I said I was taking a short break this week- let’s just call this a small break from my small break…HA!)  It’s just TOO good to not share, plus I got ANOTHER piece of exclusive concept art!   Also… she asked me to put her answers in purple… I LOVE PURPLE…  how could I refuse?!?!?

Here it is, yet another exclusive follow up to this amazing phenom that you all helped start! Let’s keep it going everyone… Let’s help get this MADE!!!! You will notice the questions are pretty much the same, but that was the nature of the interview, and I wanted her perspective… so here it is!  Only on Zombieinfo.com!

ZK: Hi Renee, thank you so much for taking the time to follow up and welcome to Zombieinfo.com!

Renee: Thank you!

ZK: I guess we will dive right into this, Tell us all what you do in relation to A.D.?

Renee: Producing with Bernie & Tarik and bring the feminine flavor to the bunch.

ZK: So, were you a genre and horror fan always?  What drew you to this project?

Renee:  I am a fan of cutting edge artists and material. AD is super cutting edge, tests the limits of storytelling and with Ben Hibon who is an absolute visionary I am certain it will groundbreaking.

ZK: With the ‘new’ interpretations of the zombie culture out there, do you prefer fast or slow zombies…and why?

Renee: I like them both, as long as it feels fresh and inspired, not dated and familiar.

ZK: I see a lot of ‘genre’ entries in the whole groups history, ranging from Freddy vs. Ghostbusters (go INDIE films!!!), right up to George A. Romero’s Land of the Dead and 300… It’s a really diverse mix… Was your pursuit of these projects intentional or did it just work out that way?

Renee: I used be an agent for directors, now manage and produce for them, including Ben Hibon so that is how I got involved. In terms of genre in my history, as an agent two films I am very proud of working on include HISTORY OF VIOLENCE & EASTERN PROMISES, both on behalf of David Cronenberg ( a FINE Canadian director!: ZK). I am compelled by stories that move, provoke and inspire audiences no matter what genre.

ZK: So looking at ‘A.D.’ the art direction and the overall style it really stands out- what is the overall goal of this piece…is it to make a full length feature, web series, TV show, what?  Any new news as to where you are in the process?

Renee: The goal is to make a full length feature film and so far we have the teaser, an awesome script by Haylar Garcia and an extremely modest budget. We are speaking with financiers now. (AWESOME NEWS!!!! And if you want it…I got about 8 bucks and some gum in my pocket you can HAVE!!! -Z.K.)

ZK: A.D. is looking wicked- we’re super stoked to see how this all plays out… So, what is next on your plate?

Renee: Thanks so much, being able to share AD with you is great and getting all the support of the fans, those who matter the most. One day Bernie, Tarik and I will be bringing Ben Hibon’s incredible short film on CODEHUNTERS to the big screen so stay tuned for that!

ZK: CODEHUNTERS… I saw that short… it’s wicked! Hey, let’s show the Zombieinfo people what that’s all about:

ZK: Listen, I really appreciate you taking the time to follow up with us, It means a lot to me to get the ‘last piece of the puzzle’ in place so to speak!  We will keep our eyes open and our ears peeled for any new news!

Renee: My pleasure and anytime!

Ok, so I promised a NEW piece of the concept art from A.D., …so here it is (Click for full size as always):

So…SO Fucking WICKED!

Stay tuned to Zombieinfo.com for new stuff like this and more!

I’m the Zombieking… and this topic is now DEAD to me.  AND I’m going BACK to my break (we’ll see how long this one lasts though!)  Cya soon Shamblers!

The interview we did with the creators of A.d. (see it below) seems to be taking on a life of it’s own (un-life?) which is awesome… glad I could be a part of it! This is just a quick note to let you know I need to deal with some more RL issues, but I have some awesome interviews coming up and lot’s of great news on the way… and hey… go pick up ZOMBIELAND that just came out on DVD/BR this week… that should tide you over!

Here is a lolzombie to keep you busy …

Too good…

Well, it’s the closest info I could find on George A. Romero’s newest release: ‘Survival of the Dead‘ will get a ‘Spring’ release through Magnet Releasing.
Synopsis (Variety): “Two powerful families maintain a semblance of order in the wake of the zombie holocaust. But as the inhabitants slowly die off, the two clans become sharply divided, leading to an escalating showdown with echoes of a classic Western standoff.”

I don’t care what anyone says, GAR is the top of this whole Zombie thing, I liked every damn one of his films… maybe at varying degrees, but I like em all. If he puts out a whole Zombie version of Britney Spears music videos, I’d watch it… come to think of it, that might be pretty cool… anyway, I’m looking forward to it!
