Wyrmwood Apocalypse (Trailer)

(Gore) This unhinged Aussie zombie flick looks like what might happen if Mad Max and Zombieland had a love child.

Live-Action Resident Evil 2

Live-Action Resident Evil 2

The first couple of Resident Evil games were groundbreaking but also suffered from some of the wonkiest controls, cameras, and load screens in the history of video games. TikTok user lake_skywalker perfectly captures the gameplay of Resident Evil 2 if it was remade with real live characters.

Adding Tig Notaro

Adding Tig Notaro

(Gore) You might not know that Tig Notaro wasn’t in the original cast of Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead. After Chris D’Elia was bounced from the film, Tig stepped in and was digitally integrated into scenes. Watch how VFX artists performed the feat in this effects breakdown reel, which also shows how they did the zombie tiger gag.

Zombie Time

Zombie Time

We’re doubtful that the makers of The LEGO Movie franchise will ever make a zombie movie, but that’s okay, because Paramotion Films has already gone and done it for us, with their extremely well-executed short film that proves that dismemberment doesn’t have to be gory – at least when it comes to minifigs.

The Origin of Zombies

NERF Zombie Strike Nailbiter

NERF Zombie Strike Nailbiter

While NERF’s nailgun-inspired weapon is unlikely to take down the undead – or join wood or roofing as well as an actual power nailer, it is a pretty cool looking toy regardless, offering quick firing of up 8 foam projectiles without priming.
