Max Brooks (writer of Zombie Survival Guide) is writing a new zombie book and look who bought the production rights...

pitt will do ok ..

i'll definately check this one out ...

Isn't Tobe Hooper making a zombie flick too?

Yeah (and I'm sure I'll see it because I watch almost every zombie film) but I'm pretty interested in this one because I already know the guy writing the book it's based on s great with zombie stuff. The Zombie Survival Guide is a VERY entertaining read and it looks like his zombie mythos are clearly spelled out for us already.

Brad Pitt's comapny outbid DiCaprio's for the rights to this, but the book isn't even out yet and there is no guarantee it'll ever actually be made in to a film. (Although with the amount of money and interest they've already invested in it, I'd be surprised if it doesn't see the big screen.)

Anyways, Zombie Survival Guide is great. That book really should get made in to a movie too & if this ever does see the light of day, I'd be all over it!

On a semi-related note, doesn anyone know how I might go about conatcting Max Brooks or his agent?

Book doesn't come until September 12th but I'm excited for it.
