    Dead Rising (film)

    http://variety.com/2014/digital/news...fe-1201224250/

    A full-length digital feature based on Capcom’s zombie videogame franchise “Dead Rising” will stream on Sony’s Crackle. Film is the first project to come out of Legendary Digital Media.

    “Transformers” franchise producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura will executive produce the film that Tim Carter will write and produce with Tomas Harlan through their Contradiction Films banner. Director is not yet set.

    Crackle will have the domestic rights to “Dead Rising,” which will be distributed internationally by Content Media Corp.
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    "Digital feature", eh? So, like, a CGI movie? I think they did that with Resident Evil or something like that at some point, didn't they?

    Videogame-to-movie films usually don't work out, so whatever, I wouldn't be surprised if this turned out to be a load of dreck like the vast majority of other game adaptations. It's quite surprising how bad most of them tend to be, isn't it?

    Actually a 12 part series set in real time could work featuring survivors trapped in a mall waiting for rescue. It would be 24 with zombies.
