Living Dead - The Musical *Spoilers*

[Jan]

What brand new, never-been-posted-in forum would be complete without dancing zombies?

When JMS unveiled this project at SDCC, he literally had a small dance floor laid in the meeting room and a troupe of riverdancing zombies came out and entertained us. It was surreal and wonderful.

All we know so far is that this project is going to be self-financed by Studio JMS. No word as to when we might see it.

But I can't wait (and I don't generally care much for zombies).

I bet it'll be better than what they've done to the WWZ adaptation...

Can't help but be. After all, Studio JMS is financing and, I believe, making it on their own.

Too bad it's unlikely that the two could come out at or near the same time. It would be interesting to compare reviews. (insert devil smilie here)

I noticed this morning while visiting IMDbPro that "Living Dead: The Musical" has moved from the "Television in Production" section (apparently there's not enough demand for "Web Series in Producion") to the "Past Television" section along with Jeremiah, Crusade, B5. When you click on the page itself, it shows as still being in pre-production and there's no cast or other information as yet but hopefully this means there will be news soon.

It got me thinking about the info JMS gave us back at SDCC last year so I went to the YouTube video and wrote down the song titles JMS revealed:

"There Were Zombies in Jersey and Nobody Cared"
"Stop Shooting at Me"
"It's not my fault that I'm Dead"

...and there's something about a choir, I think but I couldn't hear clearly.

Since this is a project entirely in the control of Studio JMS we shouldn't have to go through the interminable waits for some studio publicity department to roll the bones and read the chicken entrails (not that I think Pat would allow that one) as to the most auspicious time to announce it (unless, of course, Studio JMS has one already (oh, please...NO!)).

Staying tuned...

No, that needs to be amended.

Oh, well, there's progress on so many other fronts, we can wait for this one.
