New Anti-Undead Film Being Made Using Left 4 Dead Game Engine
Machinima is the practice of using the increasingly powerful and versatile 3D engines used to power modern computer and videogames to produce movies or other film-like works. It was only a matter of time, given the number of such games that feature Anti-Zombie violence, until someone put two and two together and came up with the idea of making their Anti-Undead feature in virtual space:
A new indie zombie project entitled Mary Doe, the first entry in a planned trilogy, is officially on the horizon from filmmaker Nick Nicolaou, and the project has piqued our interest due to its unique approach of using the Left 4 Dead video game engine to create a zombie-filled landscape in which to tell its tale.
…
A twelve-day trek across the desert and the insignificant form that is Mary Doe has exhausted all life within her. Rescued from death’s door, she finds herself abandoned with five men in a decommissioned government facility used for testing biological weapons.
Lost with no memory of who she is and no placement in this world, she finds no reason to want to win her freedom – to journey BACK FROM THE DEAD…
Isolation breeds paranoia – no one can hide from their demons forever. As Mary unravels her past, the world she has fallen into crumbles down around her. The MUTANTS have found their way into the bunker. She has to gather her strength and find a reason to want to live – to want to get out of this HOLE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE.
Mary Doe is a horror/thriller in the vein of films such as Alien, The Thing, Dawn of the Dead and Terminator.
Murder, Deception, Justice… A classic noir femme fatale story set in the world of the BANISHED and the UNDEAD!
Yes, that’s just what we need, more synergy between Anti-Zombie movies and Anti-Zombie games.
Though to be fair, it couldn’t *possibly* be worse than RE: Afterlife. Uggh.
