As much as that is fascinating it is laced with ethical issues that will probably never allow it to go to human testing.
Just imagine the proffessor in front of the ethics commitee "Yeah, i wanna kill a few humans, fill them with salt and then see if i can bring them back to life"
I extremely doubt it will get further than laboratory testing.

People will volunteer for the tests. People will do anything for money. It sounds pretty cool anyway.
Does anybody know the phone number of the institute doing the testing - I'm broke...

no not money.
I think a more likely situation would be someone with a deadly wound (gunshot), or someone who has to undergo a very high-risk heart operation where the risks of dying are very real.
Oh, and the whole reviving dead-organs has been going on for more than 40 years.

The origional or the re-make?
Seriously, I think it's cool where science is going, all up. Isn't this all a part of evolution? I think so.

I meant the re-make, the one where they shoot Jean Leno (the dude from kate night show) and stuff from the rooftop right?
Yeah Science is totally wicked. Someday it will probably be used in footbag which i hope will not happen.

Lol, awesome as that movie is - it's not George Romeo. I heard George loved it so much that he got Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright to have cameo roles as zombies
