EXCL: Producer Offers Hater Update

August 22, 2009
Producer Mark Johnson, who is currently balancing duties between the next Chronicles of Narnia picture and Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, told me earlier today that progress continues on Hater, an adaptation of the David Moody novel he is co-producing with Guillermo Del Toro.
"The script is getting turned in this week, actually," he said. The Shield's Glen Mazzara is adapting the book. "I describe it as a zombie movie without zombies. So we'll see what we get. It's one of the few ones that focuses on an outbreak that affects people where it's never explained. A really good one. Others may do the same thing and be metaphors for AIDS or whatever, but, in this particular case you, can read all kinds of interpretations into it but at the end of the day it is what it is."
In Moody's 2006 tome, an epidemic breaks out forcing people to break out into fits of violence. The Orphanage's Juan Antonio Bayona is slated to direct.

Well, if any of the writers from The Shield are on anything I am down. They are some of the best writers on television hands down.

I liked it better when it was called 28 Days Later. The book wasn't bad, though.

A zombie movie without zombies? I like them Freddy And Jason shows without Freddy and Jason, too. Zombies without zombies? Why?
