This is a new movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger. I haven't heard a lot about it but it is getting some good early buzz. It looks intriguing though I wonder if the movie will go to its logical conclusion or not.

I swear this is a comic book. Not a recurring one, some one shot story I read somewhere. I want to say in Creepy or Eerie magazine when I was a kid.

Arnold looks much better with the beard. He should keep it.

Where'd a guy named Wade Bowman get that accent?

Putting aside the accent this movie looks like it'll have some of Arnold's best acting.

What. That's a perfectly egitimate Kaleefornyah accent.

You call it an accident. I call it justice.

Was just coming to post this movie having seen it linked in my G+ page. I concur that Arnold does look great with a beard and really looks like he can do this dramatic role. That said, looks like a twist on virus>zombie>end times. I am not a fan of that, but this movie looks good enough to set that aside.

My read is that this is going to be a drama about the relationship between a father and a dying/dead/undead daughter. I suspect it's going to be using the zombie virus to stand-in for something like cancer or HIV.

Unlike JCVD, who was great in JCVD, I just have no interest in Arnold doing anything that costs less than 20% of a billion dollars and has more explosions than WWII.

Aaaah it's the girl from Zombieland!  I had to IMDB her to figure out why she looked so familiar.

I will watch this.  I will not expect it to be great, but I've never actually regretted seeing an Arnie film.

I still think of her as Little Miss Sunshine.

Even though she's really, really NOT anymore.
