Dead Rising Movie Trailer Is Bizarre Like Whoa

All you need to know about the Dead Rising movie trailer: It puts chainsaws on a wheelchair, it uses first-person camera, and it is completely incomprehensible.


I. Um, okay. I am really at a loss for words here, guys. I honestly have no idea what to make of this.

The above trailer comes from a page on the Capcom Japan website [http://www.capcom.co.jp/movie/deadrising/], and apparently details a low-budget film that looks to be about four people in a warehouse killing zombies with the cheesiest makeup and special effects you could imagine. I don't know what's going on, except there are first-person elements (at least Doom was based off of, you know, a first-person shooter) and then there's a scene where there are multiple weapons attached to a wheelchair including a chainsaw or five.

In fact, my initial hunch is that this isn't an actual movie trailer at all, but rather something that Capcom just threw together to promote the upcoming Dead Rising 2, since trailers have shown protagonist Chuck Greene slapping dual chainsaws-on-a-stick onto a motorcycle [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/91294-Dead-Rising-2-Trailer-Features-Chainsaw-on-a-Stick]. At least, I hope it's not an actual movie trailer. Frankly, I don't know.

On the other hand, Joystiq [http://www.joystiq.com/2010/01/26/dead-rising-the-movie-puts-chainsaws-on-a-wheelchair/] informs us that the full title of the movie actually translates to "Death Disease Contamination Dead Rising," which is kind of an epic name for a film. Maybe they can reuse the title for an actual movie that doesn't look like it was put together in a week as a gag by Capcom employees.

Or maybe it wasn't. Maybe this is a real flick directed by Dead Rising big shot Keiji Inafune. I don't know anymore.

What a way to start your Tuesday.

It's possible it might be a gag... I hope so anyway. Either that, or as swaki pointed out, maybe it's fanfic that Capcom's promoting.... at least I hope.

Looks something Like Tokyo Gore Police, just completely off-the-wall and as gory as a butchers on delivery day.

...

Isn't that the warehouse from Indiana Jones?

The one with the Ark of the Covonant in it?

Or am I just seeing things as a result from this trailer?

You know what?

I think it looks better than the Prince of Persia trailer.

Because that trailer sucked

Whatever it is...I still don't want the game.

I AM SICK OF ZOMBIES!

Even if I can killed them with a "flaming-chainsaw-shooting minigun", it would just bore the fuck out of me.

How about a flaming chainsaw shooting minigun with tits that are also on fire?

He's right, some japanese movies ARE like this, this is disturbing.
I seriously hope this is NOT a serious stab by Capcom.

Touche. Pretend that e at the end is fancy. I don't know the alt-combination for that and I'm too damn lazy to open up the character map to look for it.

Chainsaws on a wheelchair...

BRILLIANT!

Why didn't I think of that?

Alt + e, at least in the EU.

And wow, that was a terrible trailer. DEAD RISHING!
