Jane Austen + Zombies = Awesome

As someone who loves both the novels of Jane Austen and zombie movies, this sounds like perfection:


"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features the original text of Jane Austen's beloved novel with all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie action. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton—and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she's soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers—and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield as Elizabeth wages war against hordes of flesh-eating undead."



My prediction: Best Book of 2009.

I can't wait to see how the zombie scenes are written. "Pip pip, old chap, could I trouble you for a spot of brain?"

Pride and Prejudice is pretty much perfect as is, but there's really nothing that zombies can't improve. I am 110% behind this.
