Oh yes, this sounds like one of the films playing at the megaplex in my own personal hell:

Max Adler, who plays the bully Dave Karofsky on the hit Fox show Glee, already has plans for the upcoming hiatus, and it’s to play a role in a teen comedy movie about zombies.

…

“Comedy and Horror unite in this The Breakfast Club meets Night of the Living Dead tale about a group of oddball high school students who find themselves trapped in detention during a Zombie Apocalypse. Can they put their differences aside and work together to survive the night? Fat chance! This is High School after all.”

I’m having a nasty, almost PTSD like reaction to the concept thanks to ‘High School of the Dead’, which, to be fair, ‘Detention’ could not possibly match as an insult to my intelligence.

On the other hand, people? It’s not clever to add ‘-of the Dead’ to something anymore. If it ever was. Stop it now. Come up with an actual and original title that isn’t a reference to a movie that George Romero and John Russo thought up while you weren’t even a zygote.
