Director Burr Steer‘s latest Regency era action horror spoof, Pride And Prejudice And Zombies, has plenty going for itself by next year.

Seth Grahame-Smith is about to make his directorial debut with Warner Bros. for the upcoming DC adaptation of The Flash. Bear this in mind with the fact that he did something quite incredible as author of successful books like the 2010 Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter which eventually saw its way to a 2012 big screen take. Prior to that, his 2009 publication, Pride And Prejudice And Zombie, surfaced and went right into full film development that year.
