But they've managed to make a crap zombie film.

House of The Dead
http://www.apple.com/trailers/ artisan/houseofthedead/large.html

How to ruin a zombie flick?
Teens
Wire-Fu
Bullet Time
Swimming zombies
Kung fu zombies

A once good genre dumbed beyond belief to pander to moron teenagers in multi-mall America.
Ah well.

Ah, zombies. A true film-makers plight.

Film-maker sits in the conference room with the studio boss and thinks about the story for his new movie.

"OK. The film company wants a Zombie movie, what can you give us that's new?"

"Hm. Zombies. I like zombies, but they're so one-dimensional, they just go 'uuurg' and walk around with no agenda. Lets have zombies with dialogue, zombies with feeling, zombies that can make you empathise with them...."

"But won't that make them human and not zombies?"

"hm. Good point. Ok, we'll just have them running around chasing people for their brains then..."

And there goes another idea for a Zombie movie...

Yeah, by most of the people that did Spaced! It sounds ace, but I haven't seen any clips or screens yet.

The title makes me think of Mr Burns & Homer stuck in that avalanche.

Looks like utter guff.

An Australian Zombie film called Undead (if I remember rightly) is looking pretty promising though.

Yay, teenagers with guns shooting floating zombies, how can that fail, no seriously. All right, it looks utter balls, but you should have seen the original trailer, the only trailer I've seen that made me laugh unintentionally.
