Just checked out <em>The Zombie Times</em>. It's fun. Who knew there's quite so much zombie material out there? Well, I mean, I suspect there was, but this just confirms it. Pleased you enjoyed <em>Dead Brigade</em>. You're right, maybe it should be expanded into a full-length novel. A movie would be fun, too. (Incidentally, both those movies you mention are excellent.) I've no idea how to go about getting a script written, however. I'm just hoping one day some producer will come along, wave a fairy wand, and everything will just sort of happen. Nick Sharps and I have been corresponding about zombie stuff recently on the thread headed "Guest Bloggery". You might want to take a look at that. Hi, David. Just checked out The Zombie Times.

As a fan of zombie films (starred in one myself), I ws intrigued by the concept, so I snapped it up. Enjoyable, cynical, topical. However, the nnovella length really does not do the idea justice. 'Dead Brigade' would make a great novel. Better yet, a great film! Have you thought about putting it out for a script option, (I'll write it!) . Inject some dark humour ala my mate Jake West's 'Doghouse' and Neil Marshall's 'Dog Soldiers' (two of my favourite British films) and you could have a winner. You might be interested in the e-zine 'The Zombie Times' which can be found at 'terror4fun'. More power to your pen hand. David Watkins Formerly of Anti-Social Films. Hi James,
