George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead--which has been playing at select film festivals since September--finally has an official U.S. release date. Dimension Films announced yesterday that the fifth Dead movie, which follows the story of a group of student filmmakers on the run at the start of the zombie outbreak, will hit theaters on February 15. That's one day after Valentine's Day for all you single people. So...I guess that makes it a perfect date movie, right....? Doesn't it?
As was reported here last week, the sixth picture in the series (as yet untitled) is now officially underway. Check out the first teaser poster above, courtesy of Aint It Cool News.
