You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me.

Movies to Watch - Maybe? "Warm Bodies"

So would you see it? That is the question.  Honestly, it's been about Wizards and Vampires for who knows how many years now.  We have nothing but sparkly vampires (Twilight), vampires falling in love with humans (Twilight, Vampire Diaries, True Blood), Wolves, Witches, and Fairies.  When will this phenomenon stop?  Oh.  I know.

Next August, when they have Zombies taking over our hearts in the movie, "Warm Bodies".  No, Really.  Nicholas Hoult (Skins, X-men: First Class) will star alongside "I Am Number Four" co-star Teresa Palmer.

AMC already has us feeling bad for "The Walking Dead," and now we have Zombies falling in love, and talking?!?!  Really?  Zombies don't need talk, they're dead!  All they crave are brains, not love!  I don't know, the story sounds kinda interesting, but I don't know. I'm still in that, "maybe" stage.

What do you think?  Will you be watching this movie?  The movie will also star Rob Corddry, John Malkovich, Analeigh Tipton, and the very yummy Dave Franco.

For a synopsis of the movie, read after the jump...
Zombies love people, especially their brains. But "R" (Nicholas Hoult) is different. He’s alive inside, unlike the hundreds of other grunting, drooling undead—all victims of a recent plague that drove the remaining survivors into a heavily guarded city. Now the Zombies roam about an airport terminal, searching for human prey and living in fear of the vicious Boneys, the next undead incarnation.

One day, R and his best friend "M" lumber toward the city in search of food. There, R first sets his eyes on JULIE (Teresa Palmer), a beautiful human. Determined to save her—first from the other Zombies and then from the Boneys—R hides her in his home, a cluttered 747 aircraft. Julie is terrified, and R’s grunted assurances of “Not…eat” do little to calm her. But when R begins to act more human than Zombie, coming to her defense, refusing to eat human flesh, and even speaking in full sentences, Julie realizes that R is special.

After a few close calls with the Boneys, and with her father mounting an armed search for her, Julie realizes she can’t hide forever. So she sneaks back home, leaving R broken-hearted. Desperate to see her, R decides to comb his hair, stand a little straighter, and impersonate a human long enough to get past the city guards. If only he can prove to the humans that Zombies can change, maybe R and Julie’s love might stand a chance. But with the rampaging Boneys heading toward the city and Julie’s father intent on killing R and his Zombie friends, the stage is set for an all-out battle between the living and the undead.

A genre-bending tale of love and transformation, WARM BODIES is a story about a boy who loves a girl…for more than just her body.

Uh, sounds pretty cheesy, and like that short film about zombie love that you did earlier this year just got seriously ripped off. If the vampire phenomena is running out of blood then I guess that zombies are the obvious next choice, so says those reject muppets from a few days ago, gloves and shoes. Either way, Nicholas Hoult needs to be hot in every movie he makes and being a zombie won't help, despite his best attempts at undead sexiness in the photo to the right. Sounds kinda eh but we'll have to see how it all turns out.
