When you hear things like ‘the spirit of the Book’ you should know by now that the final product will bear extremely little similarity to the literary work that you loved (or in our case, hated): Get More: Movie Trailers, Movies Blog You had to guess he’d say things like that. The book doesn’t have [...]

This, however, is no way to induce people to get fit: Indie developer Six to Start and Naomi Alderman are attempting to kick start their new app, aptly titled ZOMBIES, RUN!

We try to lend support whenever and wherever we can for Zombie Friendly public outings, and the ZRC loves Zombie Walks in general.

Well, I guess Sony knows which side their Zombie-hating bread is buttered on, and hopes to buy off their still-seething customer base with some very cheap Anti-Zombie gameplay: In addition, today’s update grants free access to five games: Plants vs. Zombies, Astro Tripper, Altered Beast, Bashi Blocks (Minis), and Jet Moto (PS1).

The film will be directed by Marco Ristori and Luca Boni who made the recent low-budget zombie flick, Eaters, for Boll. [...]
