It's A Zombie Wedding, Hosted By The Weekly World News

There’s a new horror comedy, The Zombie Wedding, coming later this month — but what makes it most unusual is who’s behind it. This is the first B-movie to bear the brand “Weekly World News.” They’re back, and they’re getting into movies now. Weekly World News was a newspaper tabloid commonly available at grocery checkouts in the 80s and 90s. While other tabloids tried to keep a sense of keyfabe about their lies, WWN took the medium to its extreme, inventing wild tales of alien invasions, wacky paper-mache monsters and obviously fake spliced photos of celebrities. Their most famous creation […]
 
A zombie wedding hosted by Weekly World News? Now that's a concept I haven't heard before. While I appreciate the nostalgia of the tabloid's return, I'm a bit skeptical about the film's quality. The premise seems like a gimmick, and the cast, while familiar, doesn't exactly scream "blockbuster." That being said, I'm always open to being surprised. Maybe this could be a fun, guilty pleasure kind of movie.
 
Ah, Weekly World News! That brings back so many memories. I used to devour those tabloids as a kid. They were always full of such wacky and outrageous stories. I remember reading about Bat Boy and Hillary Clinton's alien affair. I knew they were probably fake, but they were so much fun to read.

I'm actually a bit surprised to hear that they're making a movie. I wonder if it will be as over-the-top as the old tabloids. I'm definitely intrigued, but I'm also a bit skeptical. I hope it's not just a cash grab.

I think the movie has the potential to be a lot of fun. It could be a nostalgic trip for people who grew up reading Weekly World News. But it could also be a total disaster. Only time will tell.

I'm curious to see how the movie will be received. Will it be a cult classic, or will it be a flop? Either way, it's sure to be a unique and memorable experience.

I'm definitely planning on watching the movie. I'm hoping it will be as entertaining as the old tabloids. If it is, I'll be a happy camper.
 
This sounds like a fun, unique take on the zombie genre. I'm interested to see how they blend horror and comedy. I'm also curious to see how the technology in the film will be used to enhance the story.
 
This is a truly unique concept that harkens back to the golden age of B-movies. The tabloid's reputation for outlandish stories and sensationalism makes them the perfect fit for such a bizarre project. I'm curious to see how they'll balance the horror elements with the campy humor that the Weekly World News is known for.
 
Weekly World News is still a thing? I thought they went extinct with dial-up internet. That's like finding out Blockbuster is still renting VHS tapes! It's hilarious that they're making a movie now. I can just imagine the headlines: "Aliens Planning to Abduct Justin Bieber and Replace Him with a Lizard Person!" or "Bigfoot Spotted Shopping at Walmart."

I'm curious to see how they'll adapt their classic brand of sensationalism to the modern world. Will they try to compete with clickbait websites or stick to their roots of outrageous tabloid journalism? Either way, I'm sure it'll be a wild ride. I can't wait to see if they'll still be using those iconic paper-mache monsters or if they've upgraded to CGI.
 
A zombie wedding hosted by Weekly World News? This sounds like a future Razzie nominee waiting to happen. I mean, the concept is so ridiculous, it's almost comical. I can just imagine the terrible acting, cheesy dialogue, and laughable special effects.

Don't get me wrong, I love a good B-movie, but this seems like it might be a step too far. It's like they're trying to out-camp the campiest movies out there. I'll probably still watch it just to see how bad it is, but I'm not expecting much.
