Synopsis:

Dead Rising: Watchtower takes place during a large-scale zombie outbreak. When a mandatory government vaccine (Zombrex) fails to stop an infection from spreading across the city, four unlikely survivors must evade the zombie horde whilst at the same time discover the root of the epidemic - all signs point to a government conspiracy! Their perilous, action-packed journey to escape and uncover the truth forces them to question what they’re willing to do to survive, and ultimately their own sense of humanity.

We like it because:

Dead Rising: Watchtower is inventive, full of pumped up energy and unforgettably awesome zombie crushing moments!

This live-action adaptation stars a first-class cast - including Jesse Metcalfe (Desperate Housewives), Oscar-nominee Virginia Madsen (Sideways) and fan favourites Meghan Ory and Keegan Connor Tracy from ABC’s Once Upon a Time.
