A Really Lame Zombie Movie
27 March 2015
I accidentally discovered "Dead Rising" on YouTube where there are these edited together game footage "movies" that are quite impressive. I don't know if these editors are connected with the game company that owns "Dead Rising" but if they aren't they should be hired because they did a far better job than the people behind this live action "Dead Rising" movie put out by Crackle.

The whole "Dead Rising: Watchtower" movie was an endurance test. Really a bad movie and what I don't understand is why these film makers don't watch source material like George Romero's movies and all of the Italian zombie rip-offs made during the eighties for ideas. It's like they just watched The Walking Dead and tried to guess what made that show successful and came out with this generic paint-by-the-numbers lame zombie movie.

This movie failed not only the "Dead Rising" game fans but "The Walking Dead" fans who will surely be watching this movie to get their zombie apocalypse fix during the season hiatus of "The Walking Dead".

This movie was a waste of my time.
