Romero has been talking about this for years. I read in some fanzine a year or so ago that Anchor Bay had agreed to put up a third of the budget for exclusive video rights, a third was coming from the Italian backers of Dawn (Argento?), and that Romero was still looking for a final backer. On the IFC docu American Nightmares Romero talked about making the Hollywood circuit and unsuccessfully pitching the idea to studio heads. He did seem a little more sure of himself in the House of the Dead docu, though.
