New poster for Zach Lipovsky’s Dead Rising: Watchtower

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

Crackle’s live-action adaptation of Capcom’s "Dead Rising" franchise is nearing its March 27th release, and now we have the brand new poster for Zach Lipovsky's DEAD RISING: WATCHTOWER for you to check out, and it certainly evokes the spirit of the videogames. The trailer was goofy fun, so here's hoping the flick will be worthwhile entertainment.

The film stars Jesse Metcalfe, Meghan Ory, Virginia Madsen, Dennis Haysbert, and Rob Riggle. The script was written by Tim Carter, who also produces alongside Tomas Harlan under their Contradiction Films banner. Lorenzo di Bonaventura (TRANSFORMERS) is the executive producer.

Dead Rising: Watchtower takes place during a large-scale zombie outbreak. When a mandatory government vaccine fails to stop the infection from spreading, the four leads must evade infection while also pursuing the root of the epidemic, with all signs pointing to a government conspiracy. Politics, public paranoia, and media coverage play an important role in the story’s narrative.

Look for DEAD RISING: WATCHTOWER to release on Crackle on March 27.
