Damn Nation Going to Silver Screen


by Irma Arkus

Paramount has hired Ashley Edward Miller and Zack Stentz, better known for their work on Thor, to work on the adaptation of Damn Nation for the silver screen.

Damn Nation is a Dark Horse comic book mini-series, a trilogy written by Andrew Cosby, on the subject of a vampire-creating disease outbreak. A combo between zombies and vampires. US is attacked by creatures of the night to such an extent that most population has been entirely evacuated.

A la Omega Man, but with a lot more fangs. In fact, now that I think about it, Damn Nation may be more Richard Matheson than “I Am Legend.”

Once the infection takes place on a large scale, a group of scientists returns to US, trying to find a cure. And you know what happens then.

    damn nation sounds very cool. but I can’t resist feeling being taken advantage of. as much as I love the “I’m being chased” genre of film I still think that they are following the tried and true script. then again, maybe I need to sink my teeth into the comic book first.

    vampy. very vampy. I kinda like the whole Omega Man twist but I would honestly rather watch another 28 days/weeks/months/years/whatever. the franchise is already there and it already kicks ass. just no Will Smith please!

    as far as I’m concerned, the more vamps the better
