What is the status of Twilight of the Dead (Romeros fourth Dead film)?
TOTD is not even written…by George, that is. When he does it will be based on his online serials ‘The Death of Death.’ Many fans have written their own conclusion to the series calling it “Twilight of the Dead” (based on articles and The Zombies That Ate Pittsburgh’s mentioning). They have even sent these to him hoping he would select it for his own use. Now he’s gathered all the ideas and is writing the thing…no just kidding. He is not using a shred of the material that has been sent in. The only other alternative to making a new deadscape would be the obvious: a prequel sandwiched between Dawn and Day. If Hollywood thought the concept to be lucrative one, it would be in production now. But they’re not interested in “adult horror” as we know. The prequel concept has been done in countless variations and George would probably not want to look like a clone…of himself. “Twilight of the Dead” would DEFINITELY NOT be the name of the fourth film. George has stated this several times.
