Last winter we reported on talk of plans to convert the original Night of the Living Dead movie into stereoscopic 3-D. Now apparently the powers that bed have decided not to tamper with a classic, but instead, make their own new version to pop out of the screen at you.
According to THR's Heat Vision Blog, newcomer director Zebediah de Soto is planning a "re-imagining" of the original George Romero film, titled Night of the Living Dead: Origins. First of all, I have no idea why anyone would use the Origins title after Wolverine, and secondly, I have no idea why anyone would remake a George Romero film as their first ever feature. I guess boldness ought to be rewarded, but I have my doubts that 3-D will make a new version of a perfectly good classic worth the effort.
