Hi-Sci-Fi

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.
