Free Dead Rising Movie Zombifying World This Summer


Capcom's Dead Rising movie is coming this summer and looks a little weird, but at least it'll be free.

The ultra weird Dead Rising movie trailer [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/97765-Dead-Rising-Movie-Trailer-Is-Bizarre-Like-Whoa] has turned out to be for a full-fledged production. Capcom has announced that the trailer is for Zombrex Dead Rising Sun and the final product will be released online for free in Europe and North America sometime this summer.

Ultimately it's all about promoting Dead Rising 2 [http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=74656], but nearly anything with zombies in it has the potential for some redeeming value. Capcom re-released the same trailer we already saw before, but now with English voice-overs like those the official movie will also have. Zombrex isn't a misspelling of "zombie," it's the name of a medication in Dead Rising.

Zombrex Dead Rising Sun is said to be "inspired" by the Dead Rising universe and is written and directed by Capcom veteran and Dead Rising producer Keiji Inafune. It takes place during a zombie outbreak in Japan and follows two brothers trying to survive. Though it looks cheesier than cheesecake laced with Cheetos served on a wheel of Gruyere, Capcom says Zombrex Dead Rising Sun is an homage to zombie movies of the 1970s and will provide links to Dead Rising 2. Plus, that bladed chainsaw wheelchair just cannot be denied.

The movie will be released in eight episodes for just $0.00 each, possibly here [http://www.zombrex.com/]. I doubt it'll be the next Dawn of the Dead, but free is free so the price of entry is right where I like it.

Well... Still looks as good as it did in Japanese. Glad I get to understand what's going on, without having to read anything. Although, since it's dubbed over the original Japanese Cast talking, my mind is going to hurt. As is my sense of awesome.

Calumon: Freebie-Jeebies!

I'm really not sure what to make of that... I know it's free and all, but I'm really not terribly impressed...

Capcom has proven yet again that they are the worst company in the world when it comes to writing dialogue.

My eyes!!! They hurt!
Only a zombie physically ripping them out would be worse than watching this stuff.

Wow... a movie based on a video game that is available for free?

How many warning signs of "don't watch" is that?

Capcom are missing a trick if you can't find a TV in the Vegas complex to watch this on, in the game. Couple of clicks and it's full screen, if they divx it onto the disc it should only take a few hundred meg of space.

Pretty much. I know it's going to be bad, but I'm going to watch it just to have a good laugh.

Looks funny, in a cheesy kind of way. I don't think it's meant to be a good film, if anything it's just a spoof of zombie movies and advertising for their games.
