Written by Haro Aso and illustrated by Kotaro Takata, the manga series Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead debuted in October 2018. Here’s the plot synopsis for the live action movie…
Akira Tendo (Eiji Akaso) works at an exploitative company where he suffers endless hours and harassment from his boss. Spending more days feeling dead than alive, he awakes to discover his town has been devastated and overtaken by zombies and suddenly feels excited at the prospect of not needing to go to the office anymore.
After witnessing an older co-worker he looked up to become a zombie, he comes to the realization that he’d rather be eaten by zombies if he can’t do what he wants.
Akira comes up with a bucket list of 100 things he wants to do before becoming a zombie. He crosses these items off the list as he experiences stay-at-home camping, paragliding, SUP yoga and other long-held dreams. What will become of him as he joyfully lives his life amid a zombie apocalypse?! And, as he holds on to his dream to become a superhero who saves everyone, what will happen when he battles a massive and deadly zombie shark!?
There’s also a Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead animated series.
Described as an “epic odyssey,” the upcoming werewolf thriller Wolfland is being directed by Sean Brosnan, and Sean’s movie star dad Pierce Brosnan has signed on to star this week.
Variety reports that Wolfland will feature “creature and design effects” from Imaginarium Studios (Planet of the Apes, The Lord of the Rings), the company founded by Andy Serkis.
The film “follows a young teenager who, when his sister is viciously attacked and showing signs of a transformation, leaves his small village in search of a legendary werewolf hunter who can reverse the gruesome curse. When he finds the “legend,” Devlin, slumped against a bar and in no mood for ghost stories, Delvin takes the kid’s money and agrees to hunt down this phantom monster, only to find themselves in a deadly whirlwind of carnage.”
Sean Brosnan (My Father Die) co-wrote the screenplay with Matt D’Elia.
“I’m excited to be working with Pierce on a film that aims to redefine the werewolf sub-genre,” said Sean Brosnan. “With the amazing special effects talents at Imaginarium, we’ll craft a werewolf transformation set to rival the iconic scenes from An American Werewolf in London. We’re thrilled about the potential impact of an expanding Wolfland universe.”
Producers include Marcus Warren for Light Sound Frequency and Christian Moore for The Consortium.
