After 23 years, cult zombie movie favorite Night of the Creeps is FINALLY coming to DVD and Blu-Ray! We reviewed this film last year and thoroughly enjoyed it, so I’m excited that we’ll finally be able to see it with great picture and sound quality. The DVD will include an alternate ending along with cast and crew commentary and all those other things we’ve come to expect on most DVD releases. Night of the Creeps creeps into your living room October 29, 2009.

George emailed to alert us to these awesome Left 4 Dead costumes spotted at this year’s ComicCon: Bill, Zoey, and a Tank, a Witch, and another Zoey. Very cool costumes, but how the heck does the Tank move around?

Capcom released a promotional t-shirt for the upcoming Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicle that allows you transform into a zombie! How does that work? Well the face of a zombie is printed on the inside of the shirt, so if you flip the shirt over your head like this it looks like you’re a zombie! Pretty neat, although I see one one potential problem with it – how the heck do you see? This was a giveaway item at Comic-con this year, so unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a way to purchase one.

I was surprised when this popped up in my rss feeds today – Edges of Darkness DVD release date set. , so intrigued, I dug a little deeper. I was able to find the above trailer and the IMDB page, but other than that, not a whole lot on information, which is a shame because the trailer looks awesome! The DVD is also being distributed by Anchor Bay, which is a fairly major deal for what appears to be a low budget zombie flick. Anyone else hear about this one?

We’ve all known about George Romero’s newest film for some time now and today we finally have a name to go with it: George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead. The film, which is set to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, will follow Crocket (one of the characters from Diary of the Dead) as he escapes to an island, only to find himself in the middle of a “Hatfields and McCoys” dispute between two families.

The name “Survival of the Dead” seems significant. As Romero’s series evolves, so to do the zombies. Based on Land of the Dead, it’s clear that the zombies are fighting for their survival – will this film be the epic battle that finally settles things?

Viewers will get the usual chills and thrills, and expect the usual Romero social commentary in this latest installment of his series. There are a few stills as well as a synopsis available on the Toronto International Film Festival website, so be sure to check it out!

There’s a lot of zombie movie news coming out of Hollywood this week so I’ve compiled these all into a small, bite size portions for your reading enjoyment…

Principal cast for a new zombie film, named Gatekeeper , was announced last week. The project has a few big names attached to, such as Judge Reinhold and Ron Perlman – wait, are those really big names? In the famously low budget genre of most zombie movies, I’d say that they count.

The filmmakers behind the I Spit on Your Rave are looking for participants in yet another “world’s largest zombie gathering” record. The gathering will be used in a scene for the movie, which is a mockumentary about the world’s largest post-zombie-apocalypse music festival (try saying that 5 times fast).

A release date has been set for Resident Evil: Afterlife of September 17th, 2010.

The World War Z movie adaption is apparently still happening with the recent addition of screenwriter Matthew Michael Carnahan to the project. It’s unclear whether he is just tweaking the script or doing a whole re-write, although author Max Brooks is optimistic, saying “He’s one of Hollywood’s hot A-list writers, so if they went after him and paid him a mountain of gold, it definitely shows their confidence in this project.” I concur, Mr. Brooks.

Don’t forget, you always check out news on the latest upcoming zombie movies on our Upcoming Movies page in the Zombie Movie Database.

We’d just like to take a moment and say congratulations to our friends over at Permuted Press. They recently announced a co-publishing deal with Pocket Books! This will give them much wider distribution and bring their line of horror books to a much larger audience. Best of all, the first book to be published is one of my favorites – Day by Day Armageddon by J.L. Bourne. (make sure to check out our review!) Permuted Press has been a big supporter of the ZRC since our early days and we’re very happy for them – good work guys!

Augmented Reality is the next big thing in video games. Basically the concept is this: the computer takes live video of the world, inserts graphics of it’s own into that real-time video feed, and allows players to interact with it. Computer graphic chip maker Nvidia has been working on a mobile device chip and released a demo zombie game showing off it’s cool Augmented Reality potential. Players take a use the phone to shoot at zombies, and can even insert Skittles into the map to act as bombs for taking out zombies. Is this the future of gaming? Check out the video below!

Sure it may be a bit of old news but we’re posting it anyway since we missed it the first time around. Zombieland is the upcoming zombie/comedy starring Woody Harrelson and directed by rookie Ruben Fleischer. The movie is a take on the classic road comedy, with zombies. Zombieland is scheduled for release on October 9th, 2009.

A teaser trailer was released for upcoming French zombie flick The Horde today. The film is about a bunch of corrupt cops who go on a murdering spree to avenge a fallen comrade. Trapped inside a gangster’s hideout, they are forced to fight for their lives against an army of “bloodthirsty, cannibalistic creatures”. Looks like a zombie flick to me!
