Bill Moseley and Pat Tallman will be getting some new company on their latest team-up, Dead Air, which we first told you about right here.

Recent additions to the cast include David Moscow (young Tom Hanks in Big), Navid Negahban (Charlie Wilson’s War) and Anthony Ray Parker, aka Dozer from The Matrix (pictured).

Cameras are supposed to be rolling this week on the film which the writer, Kenny Yakkel, wanted to be sure we were clarified on; Dead Air is not a zombie movie, perse, because the monsters are not the shambling dead. Rather they are humans who have been dosed with a poisonous toxin that turns them into "rioters acting as if PCP were baby aspirin". So no rotting corpses for you, sorry!

Corbin Bernsen is directing from a script by Yakkel, who is also one of the co-producers for the Flash-animated cartoon Xombie. Look for more on Dead Air very soon!
