In the Flesh creator Dominic Mitchell has said he "wouldn't rule out a Kickstarter campaign" to resurrect the axed series as a movie.
The BAFTA winner told Radio Times that he could imagine following the path set by Veronica Mars, which came back as a fan-funded film.
"I believe a movie would perhaps work even better than a third series or webisodes," he said.
"You could really explore the parallel universe of In the Flesh. See how they handle PDS sufferers in the capital, in Scotland, in Wales, in the whole of Great Britain. That excites me a lot."
The supernatural drama - which aired two series on BBC Three before it was cancelled - was a modern take on the zombie thriller, with Partially Deceased Syndrome (or 'PDS') sufferers being reintegrated into society.
"I haven't contacted any of the producers or the cast or crew [about a film]. But In the Flesh was such a special experience for everyone involved that I hope they'd be on board, if a script was written and the financing was in place," Mitchell said.

"I don't have words on paper yet, or investors lined up. However, the idea for a film version has been niggling in the back of my brain for about a year now - and after the cancellation it was suggested to me by a lot of folks."
Earlier this year, Luke Newberry - who played In the Flesh lead Kieren Walker - told Digital Spy that he would "love" to return to the role.
