If you were afraid that the Dead Rising movie would be a by-the-numbers zombie flick devoid of the campy, quirky charm of its source material, I've got a new trailer for you. This minute-and-a-half long look at Dead Rising: Watchtower features a Sledgesaw, a Servbot shirt, and a cameo from a certain investigative journalist.
Although, to be honest, Rob Riggle's take on the semi-sleazy reporter is so spot-on that I kind of wish he was out there smashing zombies again. The new protagonist played by Jesse Metcalfe probably hasn't even covered wars, even if he is similarly scoop driven.
The feature-length film is set to debut on March 27 on ad-supported streaming service Crackle.
(And your ears aren't deceiving you, fellow Cowboy Bebop fans, that is definitely 'Memory' playing over the Zombrex TV commercial. Kind of an odd choice.)
