There can never be enough zombies in the world. Zombie films and series, anyway. Actual zombies would suck, but watching people run from them is always entertaining. It's a good thing a lot of fans feel this way too, because we're getting another zombie project. Called "As We Know It," the independent horror film takes place during "a nuclear zombie apocalypse," according to Variety.
