Above is a short trailer for a CG zombie flick called A.D., found by Zombie Info. Despite the very poor zombie survival techniques displayed by the characters -- i.e., just sitting in the middle of the road and allowing themselves to get surrounded -- it's a beautiful trailer, especially the environments. I even like the extreme, Clone Wars-esque character designs, since they don't look like they're actually made of wood, and it looks extra cool on the zombies. Zombie Info has way more, er, zombie info on the makers and their hopes to turn this into a real movie; you should check it out. Thanks to Snoodle for the tip. (Via io9)

I like it! I would watch a CG zombie movie, hell yeah!
Anonymous replied to Shane no AKA:
Well in the meantime you could watch RE degeneration (better then all 3 re movies combined). This looks like it could end up being a lot more stylish though!
SpecterM91 replied to Max Power:
I second that. Makes me wonder why they didn't just make all the movies CGI adaptations or sequels to the game. Speaking of Capcom and zombie movies... Why are they going the route they're going with the Dead Rising movie? It could be so much better.
Shane no AKA replied to SpecterM91:
Yes! sorry I actually own RE: Degeneration, and yes agreed it was better then the live action namesake.

Holy shit. That looks beautiful. Hopefully they do manage to get a full movie out of it. I'd watch it.

I'd GLADLY pay 8 bucks to see this thing. Fan-fucking-tastic.

Looks great. I would watch that.
But you don't even have to read the survival manual to know you can't just be sitting in the middle of the road like that!
Come on!

Awesome Dead sounds like an Egoraptor film. It stands for After Death I think.

Is it just me, or does anybody else want to see a zombie movie where the survivors actually know what they're doing? Zombieland did a pretty awesome job of this, but now if we could just see it in a more serious sense. It always pissed me off to find out that the survivors of the zombie holocaust were apparently the stupidest mankind had to offer...
Kaoy replied to Max Power:
To be fair to these two, it looks like they just survived no only the Apocalypse, but a plane crash to boot. Judging by the way the guy gated a bit as he charged the zombie in the end, I bet they have some injuries that keep them from moving especially quickly or silently.
But yes, Comedy Horror is a genre only we geeks and nerds really understand. As a result, it is always us penning them, so the rules always get followed. Other movies care more about bouncing tits and thinking of creative ways for the slutty girl and black guy to die, so they get a little distracted and forget themselves.

I can stand the style for the people, sure, but you're absolutely right about the stylized look really shining for the zombies themselves. Can't wait.

Is it just me, or does the guy bear a resemblance to Abe Lincoln?

Effin A. This is very nice indeed.
Blank said:
woah, why is Dr. House cutting their heads off? He should've found the cure about 30 seconds into the trailer

I like use of UNKLE for the music. Looks interesting.
Doofus replied to plagueoftruth:
Which UNKLE track is it?
tredlow said:
Wow, that dude looks just like anybody doesn't he? One guy says Abe Lincoln, one guy says House, I say Bruce Willis with hair.

The UNKLE track is Safe In Mind.
