Midnight Syndicate is making a movie

The spooky soundtrack band Midnight Syndicate, providers of great gothy ambiance for haunted attractions across the country (including our own Carnival of Souls), announced on their mailing list today that they are making a movie. The movie is called The Dead Matter, and is apparently a remake of an earlier labour of love by one of the members of the band. Midnight Syndicate will be doing the movie soundtrack, natch. Knowing the tastes of the band, I'm pretty sure I'm going to like the movie. Unfortunately, preproduction doesn't start until 2006, so it looks like we'll be waiting a while before we see their dark vision on the screen.
