For the moment, Midnight Meat Train has a release date of August 1.

After nearly three years Vukota Brajovic and Milan Todorovic have finally gotten the financing and started shooting what will be Serbia’s first zombie movie, Zone of the Dead. Ken Foree and Kristina Klebe will star. “Taking its title from the colloquial name for an industrial zone that is the setting for the film, Zone of the Dead follows a police escort transporting a dangerous prisoner under armed guard. An ecological disaster has turned the local inhabitants into zombies, and an alliance with the prisoner may be the only way the survivors can get out alive.” They also want to set the film apart by not having any swearing.

Atom Egoyan will write and direct reality and fantasy blending Seven Wonders. After Pandora’s relationship ends, she becomes obsessed with, and follows, a commercials director (currently filming the Seven Wonders of the World) and her boyfriend. The women meet on line, and it’s unclear whether some of their interactions are all in Pandora’s head.

Producers Brad Fuller and Andrew Form on Horsemen: "What happened on Horsemen is we made the movie, and then we had to do a couple of days of reshoots, and then, unfortunately, [star] Dennis Quaid had this horrible thing happen with his kids, and so that put us way behind on that. So we literally just finished that movie a couple of weeks ago, and we're going out to distributors on that now. That is a very challenging movie, simply because the subject matter is so dark. But it's a really good movie. It's just really dark. So we're figuring out that as we speak."

Andrew Form also said that David Goyer’s The Unborn has finished filming, and will be out around Halloween.
