The movie, based on Max Brooks' book, is finally getting going. I loved the book and am excited for the movie. Robert Richardson, who was the cinematographer on Kill Bill and Natural Born Killers, has begun work in London. Imagining how grisly Richardson will make this movie, based on his previous work, kind of makes me nervous.

As Boston Biker said, "You've been warned."

"The genre always fascinated me, and when they pitched it to me, it reminded me of the paranoid conspiracy films of the '70s like All The President's Men."

World War Z is the best book I've read in about forever. A fictional history of an event that happens in the future, WWZ touches on what I usually find missing in apocalyptic stories (and what I liked so much about Jericho): the breakdown of the state. Creative and clever, there are so many subtle references to events that could be further fleshed out in future stories.
