Ah, zombies. Those creepy, lurching, decaying, attractive monsters. Wait, there's a word out of place there. Attractive? Well, yes, according to upcoming film Fragile, which is billed as a zom-rom without even the com to go with it. And Eduardo Rodriguez (not to be confused with that other zombie love, Robert, although the latter did write and produce Eduardo's last film Curandero) is directing.
The story is based on a graphic novel by Stefano Raffaele, about a world where an airborne virus has turned most of the population into feral zombies. Two recently undead souls fall in love, despite the process of gentle decomposition they're both going through, and search for a rumoured cure to the disease while being hunted down by both the remaining humans and their remaining zombie brethren.
Jeff Dixon's writing the script, and it's likely to go ahead once Rodriguez has finished work on Open Grave, the story of a man who awakens surrounded by corpses, and has to figure if one of the strangers who rescued him killed all those people, or if he did it himself. Ooooh, mysterious!
