Prepare to laugh, scoff or cringe as Capcom have actually put together a live action movie based on survival-horror game Dead Rising.
Not only that but it will release over Xbox Live this year, and was co-written and directed by the legendary Mega-Man creator, Keiji Inafune.
”The movie is set in an alternative reality in which areas effected by outbreaks are strictly quarantined, and those living in the area are coordinated off from the rest of the country. Two brothers George and Shin, hatch a plan to escape,” reports Kotaku. I’m sure they meant ‘cordoned off’ and not ‘coordinated off’ in their piece.
It stars Hiroki Yoshida and Hiroshi Yazaki as the leads in ‘Shibyou Osen DEAD RISING’. Keiji Inafune was also the game designer for Dead Rising, so he knows the world. Ignore the obviously stupid name of the trailer below, because it’s not Dead Rising 2.
Enjoy!
