THE MOVIE: The premise for Dolph Lundgren’s Battle of the Damned sounds like something a 7th grader dreamed up after binging on Mountain Dew and pixie sticks: Dolph Lundgren plays a professional soldier leading a ragtag group of rebels – and an army of robots – against the undead after a zombie outbreak wipes out civilization.

Sounds crazy but apparently it’s legit; writer/director Christopher Hatton says he’s going for a tone similar to 28 Days Later and Escape From New York. The poster certainly looks cool and claims that filming starts in June of this year but it also warns that “credits are not contractual,” leading me to believe that there’s a chance Dolph might not even star in the movie. Rest assured, Cityonfire.com will keep you posted.
