The hills are undead with the sound of music?

How soon will the booming zombie bubble burst? Not, I hope, before we've seen Rodgers and Hammerstein's alpine romp refilmed as a zombie flick .

We all know the the modern undead can run. Now it's time for them to sing and dance!

Ozzie would be perfectly cast as a Captain Von Trapp for the new millenium. An actress to follow Julie Andrews is far more difficult.

My personal vote goes to Björk.She would give the role of Maria a certain icelandic impishness that was lacking in Ms Andrews's interpretation.

Director? Mmmm. Lars Von Trier? Ang Lee? Or perhaps Michael Bay, the guy who's done the new Transformers films? Then we can be guaranteed lots of car chases, explosions and a very LOUD soundtrack!

I think the world has good reason to be glad that I'm live in Kärrtorp and not Hollywood. Here I'm just a harmless loony with a laptop who ought to get out a bit more. There, people would be throwing mountains of diosh at me to make the cinematic monstrosity just described!

PS

Talking of monstrosities, thanks to Neil in Hong Kong for sharing these with me.

I notice that there's no Zombie Ken. You have to be alive before you can be undead.
