Matt Birman’s Road of the Dead idea at least sounds filled with crazy potential, but we’ll see if he and Romero are actually able to pull off their wild genre mash-up.
George Romero is moving forward with yet another zombie film, this time titled Road of the Dead.
Romero himself would return to the zombie genre with the sequels Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead, and years later would launch another zombie trilogy: Land of the Dead, Diary of the Dead and Survival of the Dead.
The film that grew from that idea, Night of the Living Dead, would go on to spawn countless imitators, launching an entire genre of horror.
