Greg Nicotero Directing Drive In!

At Fear Festival Greg Nicotero dropped a bomb shell to us. He is going to be directing Joe Lansdales The Drive In. Now that said he also added the caveat that now that he has told us it will likely not happen, which cracks me up since its so true! But at this time Greg plans to break into directing by directing Drive In. He has directed under other directors doing unit directing but this will be his first stab as a true director so to speak.

The story is about a group of friends who decide to spend a day at the world's largest Drive-In theatre horror fest. They expected to see bloody murders, rampaging madmen, and mayhem -- but only on the screen. The suddenly find themselves trapped by a mysterous force inside the Drive-In and the worst in humanity comes out. Yes kids we have an FX legend doing a horror film and its not a remake or a sequel but based on a truly unique and original horror tale by Joe Lansdale!
