From Variety comes word that Wake The Dead is coming to theatres and it will be directed by Jay Russell. WETA are being tapped to do all the visual effects which should make for a pretty kick ass movie. Steve Niles describes the comic quite well on his blog as this;
“Basically Wake The Dead is a re-telling of ALL the Frankenstein stories I’ve ever read, or watched. It’s like a story created out of the bits and pieces of other stories, so in a way, Wake The Dead is a Frankenstein monster all its own,” says Niles. “I wanted to capture the essence of the original book as far as the youth of the characters and the price paid for playing God, but I think we’ve still managed to create an original and really freaky story.”
