According to a report from First Showing, LucasArts’ 1993 zombie classic is being prepped for a Hollywood production, described as “John Hughes meets Judd Apatow meets George A. Romero” or “a bit like Superbad + Zombieland + Home Alone”.
It doesn’t seem like this Zombies Ate My neighbours project has the blessing of LucasArts yet, as First Showing reports the writer and producers are still seeking rights and funding. Still, high school coming of age comedy with some goofy zombie slaying? I might be able to get behind that.

Quite possibly the best conceived game, and probably the best ill-conceived movie.
