Production company Severn Screen (previously known as Garage Light Films) and Warp Films have secured £150,000 from the Film Agency for Wales to fund a zombie movie based around the 2012 Olympics. Said flick doesn’t have a title yet, nor are the plot specifics known – although I’d like to think the flick will have world class athletes squaring off against a horde of the undead.

UK distributor Revolver is also co-financing. Chris Boyle will direct while Kate Crowther (SUBMARINE) will produce. Principal photography will begin in September in Wales.
