I guess you can't have a good idea and expect that no one else will come up with it sooner or later. It has finally come to pass that someone has made a zombie movie from the perspective of a zombie.

I was dreaming of making just such a film at least 7 years ago, but I guess you can’t copyright dreams. Or short stories that you never finished.  Ugh.  What further chaps my ass that the fellow who did turn *my* idea into a film managed to do it on no budget (even though the CNN article is a bit misleading since the guy seemed to have some connected friends giving him supplies.  And no mention of where he got the camera and other equipment.  Not for $70, I assure you) and distributers are chomping at the bit to pick the film up.
Damn. Damn. Damn!
