The Backstreet Boys And NSYNC Zombie Apocalypse Movie We've All Been Waiting For Is Finally Almost Here

EW – Boy band aficionados need no longer choose their favorite child:Backstreet Boys and NSYNC are teaming up to star in a Syfy channel movie called Dead 7.

The film will be written and directed by BSB’s Nick Carter, who will also star alongside wife Lauren Kitt. Bandmate AJ McLean will join him, as will NSYNC’s Joey Fatone.

Now I’m going to have to kindly ask for everyone to sit down, shut up and listen for a hot second. I can already tell that plenty of you are going to be writing this off, saying something along the lines of “I know you’re gay because you like Backstreet Boys and NSYNC”. Well let me hit you idiots up with a bit of truth because you’re the gay ones for not liking them–not that there’s anything wrong with that. I realize that we all want to look big and tough on the outside, but you know that deep down inside you freak out a little anytime “Backstreet’s Back” comes on at the bar. And I, your 10th favorite blogger, am here to tell you that that’s perfectly alright. The Backstreet Boys and NSYNC were the kings of the late 90s early 2000s. Every chick wanted to be with them and every guy wanted to be them. Personally, I was probably more of an NSYNC guy than a Backstreet guy, but that’s probably the hardest question I’ll have to think about all month.

Let’s get to the movie itself. First of all, shouts go out to SyFy for doing everything they can to keep people’s careers alive. Unless you’re like Subway Jared and get caught getting off to kiddie porn, you can basically always count on having a role in one SyFy movie or another. So now we’ve got Nick Carter, AJ and Joey Fat One playing a bunch of gunslingers who have to rid the world of zombies together. Sure, they kinda picked the worst 3 of the bunch to star in this movie but that’s what is going to make it so great. It sounds epic AF and you’re lying to yourself if you don’t think for one second that you wouldn’t watch this. Especially if this movie is anything like Sharknado and finds a way to give the rest of the guys a cameo appearance or two.

Also, check out all this controversy the movie is already stirring up.

I get trying to bring One Direction into the mix would make this movie the biggest blockbuster to date, but still… asking that goofy British bastard to play your brother before you even ask Aaron? Now that’s some messed up shit. Last time I checked, One Direction still hasn’t put out a better track than “Aaron’s Party” yet. Show some respect.
