The upcoming killer lawn gnome film from Robert Zemeckis will probably be more realistic than the Rise of the Planet of the Apes film, and more entertaining unless Zemeckis makes it with that creepy motion-capture animation, in which case it will be the worst thing that ever existed until Zemeckis’s next creepy motion-capture box office bomb.
Basically, the book How to Survive a Garden Gnome Attack: Defend Yourself When the Lawn Warriors Strike (And They Will) by Chuck Sambuchino
has been optioned by Sony and Zemeckis, with Zemeckis slated to produce. It’s a comedy, so hopefully the film will be good campy fun and not stupid. But don’t hold your breath!
