Diary of the Dead is being released by the Weinstein Co. on February 15th, no word on if it will be a wide release or not. Meanwhile Diary of the Dead 2 has already been greenlit (Read More Here), and Romero’s Knightriders is also getting a sequel (Read More Here).

The Diary news is good, but the Knightriders is not, since it is being made by the same people who brought us Crapshow 3.

Synopsis from Horror-Movies.ca:

“The “Diary” continues. Our heroes, trapped in the mansion where we left them, battle waves of ravenous zombies, barely escaping alive. In search of a safe place to settle, they commandeer an abandoned ferry and sail to a deserted island, only to find that it is already populated by a civilization of the dead.

Told in the same first-person style that distinguished “George A. Romero’s Diary of the Dead”, the next episode of the saga is a violent siege set in the middle of nowhere, a desperate struggle for survival, and peace, between two tribes: the living and the living dead.”
