Halo-8 Entertainment has slated award-winning director Matt Pizzolo (upcoming GODKILLER, THREAT) and Emmy-winning producer Brian Giberson to create an “illustrated film” adaptation of “XOMBIE: REANIMATED,” a horror/sci-fi adventure comic book created by James Farr, published by Devil’s Due Publishing, and produced by Epic Level Entertainment in a deal that marks the second collaboration between Halo-8 and Farr after XOMBIE: DEAD ON ARRIVAL was released by the studio in March. Halo-8 has scheduled the new film for production in early 2010 (after Pizzolo and Giberson complete their work on Tim Seeley’s LOADED BIBLE), with a theatrical release planned for later in the year.
