What combination of things makes even less sense than a tornado made of sharks? How about a post-apocalyptic zombie Western made by and starring boy bands?

Members of Nsync, the Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees and O-Town do battle with zombies in Dead 7...
Back in their 90s heyday, when the Backstreet Boys and Nsync were at the height of their boyband powers, you’d wouldn’t immediately assume that they’d be fodder with a Syfy zombie movie two decades later. Yet that seems to be what’s happened.
Members of Nsync, the Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees and O-Town make up the cast of Dead 7, billed as being from the makers of Sharknado. Nick Carter and Sawyer Perry have penned the screenplay, and Danny Roew is directing. And the movie is set to debut on Syfy in the Us on April 1st.
The first trailer for Dead 7 has landed too, and you can get a flavour of what lies ahead right here…
And here’s the poster…
More, er, as we hear it…...
