Philly SWAT's barrage of videos made me act on an idea I had a long time ago.

It is Roger's story from Dawn of the Dead as told by Guns N Roses (be sure to try and pair up the lyrics with the action :) )

Hells yeah!

Nice alignment with the "they break out the doors". ;)

My personal favorite sequence is...

They push me in a corner
Just to get me to fight but
They won't touch me
They preach and yell
And fight all night
You can't tell me
I lose my head
I close my eyes
They won't touch me
'Cause I got somethin'
I been buildin' up inside
I'm already gone

Excellent find in the lyrics, mate. :cool:

Nice vid axlish! I wasnt aware that two videos constituted a "barrage"... :) I got another one I made that I think is my best yet, by far. I will wait a couple of days before I post it so everyone can see the others I made and yours first. Dont want people to get sick of them!

By the way, two questions...one, I guess you used the Argento cut for that?
And two, at the end when the lyrics are "SO you can suck me!", you have Roger and Peter looking at each other, in kind of a ....loving fashion. Was that on purpose? :lol:

You know someone has an interesting life when GNR provides the soundtrack! :evil:
I've never seen some of the scenes (or shots?) in this video. What version was that from? I guess I learn something new every day.

Just curious...could you do a video of the stupid nurse zombie set to "Used To Love Her (But I Had To Kill Her)"? LOL

Philly...
-It is a good barrage
-Bring your new video on, the more the merrier
-I used the extended cut, a few shots are recycled. Basically, I wanted the tennants to break down the door when Axl says "break down the door" and that provided about 12 seconds to fill with action so I didn't have Wooley speaking silently for that amount of time so I recycled some action shots of the SWAT mobilizing.
-In the context of the video, the look was more of a sarcastic notion. It almost looks like Peter is ticked that Roger killed the zombie, so "suck me" is more of a "whatever" moment :)

Good stuff, Axlish!

I really like all the media posts posts, lately. Very fun to see.
