its official, autumn the zombie novel starts shooting as a movie in '07

[Danny]

the only thing i know right now is that it IS official, straight out of moodys mouth that its shooting in '07. if all 4 books get made we could be looking at a dead movie series to rival the romero movies http://www.davidmoody.us/forum//view...=6&jump_to=218

I wish I could say I am familiar with Moody's work but alas, I am not. I shall look forward to this movie nonetheless.

Pretty cool... I haven't read the novel yet but it looks good.

Cheers for the download link, I'll start it next week.

[Danny]

heh, i its only like 250 pages or something i read it in one sitting in about 2 and a half hours.

[capncnut]

That's some damn fast reading. I can polish a book off like that in say about a 5-7 hour sitting. At the moment though, I got another book on the go as well as trying to get my own finished plus hardcore Oblivion sessions to fit in inbetween. Oh yeah, and posting stuff here.

Sweet as, I read the first book and it was rather spiffing, I always thought it'd make a great movie - now we're getting that awesome dream!

I've only read the first one and most of Echoes. Hopefully this one gets made good. Echoes would also make a good TV show as well.

GREAT! and now is time for a tv shows for The walking dead comics, World War Z (plus with movie) and a new cinema trilogy with the books Reign of the dead :P

[Danny]

believe me if you love the walking dead ,and who doesnt, youll love autumn, and if you thought the first was good wait till you read the second, its easily better than ANY zombie flick, and the opening section of book 3 is awesome trapped in a bunker with paranoid military behind a secure area against the deadly virus in the air and 10,000 zombies beating at the bunker door.

Any details yet like where or when its set? Ive read the free autumn section and it was damn good. Its good that every once in a while a romero fan will hit it big and finally something to be proud of pops out covered in a mass of swaying limbs. My card is ****ed so I cant buy off the net but always wanted the second book but screw that I get the next best thing, movie version HPOTD scores again..TZD and now this. If there was a god Id thank him or crotch punch him.. one of the above.

This isn't a retarded gorefest/nerd superhero novel is it?

[DEAD BEAT]

why the hell are people always trying to rival Romero's work? it's an american standard,he is way to much noticed as the icon the grandaddy of the zombie genre!!! there's going to always be some fuuuck nose who thinks he can steal all the kudo's,Romero is like how people think about the beatles "sure great bands will come and go" but they have something special that can never be taken away just like the king!!! in conclusion Romero will always be the genre's inventor so fuuck O' Bannon,Snyder and all those other shiiit stains who try to take the crown because i know the die hards will not let it happen!!! p.s. kiss my hairy beanbag!!!

No it isnt..Autumn is just the tale of a group of survivors in a zombie apocolaypse. Well written and you can get the first 250 pages free from the site..No Supeheroes. Set in england, for some reason had a day of the triffids feel.
