Barbara flees and takes refuge in an abandoned farmhouse along with stranded motorist ben and four local survivors found hiding in the cellar. Together, the group must fight to stay alive against the oncoming horde of zombies while also confronting their own fears and prejudices.

Did a survey for this release from Warner Bros A-List a couple months back. Thought it was a dumb idea. They did go with the best cover though at least.

Fairly impressive cast of voice talent involved gives me hope this is somehow maybe decent - at least should be a professional production.

It's still hard to imagine ever actively choosing to watch this over just watching the original movie, especially if it is just a shot-for-shot remake based on the original script.

Hopefully they stylize it up somehow just to differentiate it. Still certainly not meaning to imply that could make it better than the original movie, but at least could give an animated version a reason for existing, even if just as an experiment.

The article mentions including never-before-seen scenes, presumably those are unfilmed scenes from the original script and not something newly added in. But it doesn't really specify.

I'm interested in it as a curiosity at least.

Is there any footage available to view?

For a second I thought this was for that awful looking CGI one from a few years ago:

Is the concept of a animated remake of NOTLD really worth revisiting

Not a great sign.

I may watch it on HBO Max sometime.

MifuneFan · 08-04-2021, 03:20 PM

I feel like this is either gonna be okay or really really awful. Today's western cartoon climate is rife of stuff so I wouldn't be shocked.
