Radha Mitchell Joins ‘Crazies’ Cast

Just because there isn’t enough remake talk in the news lately, Radha Mitchell has joined Timothy Olyphant in Overture Films’ remake of George Romero’s ‘The Crazies’. Â  For those uneducated about ‘The Crazies’, it’s the story of a biological weapon unleashed on a small, Pensylvania town that causes insanity in those affected.

Release in 1973, the original was basically Romero doing another zombie movie without really having to do a zombie movie. Â  In my humble opinion, it is his best film outside of the ‘Living Dead’ films.

The remake is being directed by Breck Eisner (‘Sahara’) and is scheduled for a September 25th release.
