Last October, Erik confirmed that we’d be seeing Zombies!!! on a variety of gaming platforms some time in 2009.

Well, we’ve hit a little bump in the road for the development of the video game adaptation of popular board game. The original developer, Big Rooster, seems to have dropped from the face of the earth completely. The creator of the board game, Twilight Creations, is currently looking for a new developer to bring this game to the video gaming world.

I’ll keep you updated as to how this affects the release schedule.

I haven’t tried this one yet, but it looks fun. The title says it all — you shoot zombies. Kinda like Diablo with zombies. You can download it now from the official web site for $19.99, or go buy it from Amazon.com for half the price. Your call. From the official web site:

“The human race is in danger again. This time scientists could not cope the imminent threat and became monsters themselves. Crowds of zombie people filled the secret research base. The dreadful contagion is about to spread earthwide.”

The web site has some screen shots so you get the idea.

Quiet Earth just posted a synopsis and trailer for an upcoming zombie movie that looks great — simply titled “The Dead.” I hate to get my hopes up like this, especially in this day and age when everyone and their grandmother is making zombie movies. But I can’t help but be excited for this one.

You can get it all here.

I just got word this morning that the release date for Pride and Prejudice and Zombies has been moved up to April 13, 2009. Kick ass! Now I only have to wait a couple more weeks instead of a month and a half!

For those of you who haven’t heard about the book, here’s what the press release had to say:

“Jane Austen’s Regency classic collides with zombie horror at its best in the first of a new monster literary mash-up genre. Complete with romance and civilised sparring, social satire and rotting corpses, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies transforms Jane Austen’s masterpiece into a gory comedy of manners for a twenty-first century generation of readers.”

You’ll be able to find this at Amazon.com as well as at your favorite book retailer.

Although we have no idea when it’s going to be available in the U.S., the British zombie “reality show” Dead Set has had its broadcast rights sold to four territories around the world. According to Variety, it will be aired on Canal Plus and a major free-to-air channel in Spain, SBS in Australia, BBC Entertainment in Africa, and TV400 in Sweden.

It’s great that so many more people will be able to watch this superb zombie TV show. Soon I’ll have to start petitioning Endemol, the makers of Dead Set, to work out a U.S. release!

As some of you know, I’m a big fan of REC, and I can’t wait to see what the makers do with the sequel. Even though the teaser trailer I found doesn’t offer much in the way of plot, it’s still pretty creepy.

Watch the REC2 teaser trailer here.
