    Flesh-Eating Nazis Headed Onscreen

    Gil Adler seems like he’s a nice guy. Have absolutely nothing to go off that - just a hunch. He’s certainly built up a decent filmography over the years. His past credits have shown he digs horror (both Tales from the Crypt films Demon Knight and Bordello of Blood), comic books (Superman Returns and Constantine) and World War II (Valkyrie). Now why not have your cake and eat it too? Make a movie that encompasses all three genres, you say?

    Funny you mention that, good reader. The trades report the producer along with Shane McCarthy has nabbed the rights to the horror-themed comic Night & Fog. The WWII set story entails a mist that turns its victims into the undead. Like any good horror tale, our protagonists are isolated somewhere they must escape before turning into zombie food. In this case, we’re talking about an island set military base.

    Nazis and zombies together at last? Fuck yeah, I want to see that. Actually that’s not an original concept in any way, shape or form. Shock Waves and Zombie Lake immediately pops into mind among others. Adler just finished Dead of Night with Superman Brandon Routh and I guess he likes the notion of continuing with the horror/comic sub-genre.

    Whatever works, man. As long as we’re not talking about another 30 Days of Night, I think we’ll be fine.
