Romero gears up From A Buick 8
Land ꦯOf The Dead director will adapt Stephen King’s novel
George A ൩Romero fans may have been salivating at the thought that he’d follow Land Of The Dead with the proposed road-trip zombie film that sees the Dead Reckoning tank crew taking on the undead hordes as they search for a safe haven. But while he is sticking with the world of the supernatural, he’s switching gears to tackle Stephen King’s From A Buick 8.
King’s story features a state trooper in Maine who’s killed at the side of the road. When his colleagues try to help his son deal with the man’s de🌠ath, the trooper’s dark secrets begin leaking out. Specifically, the car hidden in the back shed comes with more than just air-con, CD player and chrome rims… We’re talking EVIL power.
Trivia note: the script’s been co-writ൩ten by Johnathon Schౠaech, best known for starring in Tom Hanks’ That Thing You Do. Schaech is also producing the film.
