New R.L. Stine Flick 'ZOMBIE TOWN' Stars Dan Aykroyd And Chevy Chase [Trailer]
Teens battiling the undead, yep that’s right up author R.L. Stine’s spooky alley, the man did write Goosebumps and Fear Street for crying out loud, and it’s the basic idea behind the next film adaptation of his work called ‘ZOMBIE TOWN’ and we have your first look at it here at MacabreDaily.
We were able to find out that Viva Pictures will be releasing Zombie Town in theaters on September 1.
Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase star in the film, which looks to feature a major role from Aykroyd and likely a minor one from Chase.
Watch the official Zombie Town trailer below.
In the film, “Amy (Madi Monroe) and Mike (Marlon Kazadi) uncover a centuries-old secret when they decide to watch an exclusive film reel. Before they know it, their town has been turned to the undead before their eyes. The duo must track down an infamous filmmaker (Dan Akroyd) and navigate a town of hungry zombies to break the curse before it’s too late.”
Peter Lepeniotis directed the film, which was recently shooting in Ontario.
“We are delighted to bring the pages of R.L. Stine’s Zombie Town to the screen and equally thrilled to be working with such an exceptional cast and crew on this production. A three-time Nickelodeon Kids Choice Award winner with book sales of over $500 million, R.L. Stine has a phenomenal track record of crafting stories that engage and entertain audiences,” John Gillespie, Trimuse Entertainment founder and executive producer, said in a statement.
