Dawn of the Dead in 3D and A Sequel!

Yes folks you read that right. Fangoria recently spoke with Producer Richard Rubinstein about the goings on with Dawn of the Dead. Apparently Rubinstein is enlisting the help of In-Three, Inc. of Agoura Hill, CA to rerelease the film in true 3-D!

"When Mike Messina [another producer on the DAWN redux] and I began to investigate using In-Three's technique, I was very skeptical," Rubinstein tells Fango. "I couldn't see how it could be used without re-editing George's film, which I was not going to do. I was also concerned that converting a 29-year-old movie would not be competitive qualitatively with the new 3-D live-action features being shot today. I was wrong in both cases. George’s DAWN OF THE DEAD can be reformatted into 3-D without any editing, and the image looks spectacular! As it stands now, it will take about a year to complete the conversion of the whole film."

Besides this awesome announcement he also revealed that he is working on a direct sequel to Dawn of the Dead the original! Now that is really a shocker. Will they bring back Ken Foree and Gaylen Ross? Because without them, I doubt they really have much support from the original's fans. But we shall see in the coming months what becomes of the project. Keep it here for more!
