Hot on the heels of the breaking news that Rob Riggle has joined Zach Lipovsky's DEAD RISING: WATCHTOWER comes the following: the first official image from the adaptation of the Capcom zombie game. Click it above to see a bigger version, as Virginia Madsen leads Meghan Ory and Jesse Metcalfe away from danger (if that's possible) while Lipovsky and crew look on.

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.

DEAD TOWER: WATCHTOWER stars Rob Riggle, Dennis Haysbert, Virginia Madsen, Jesse Metcalfe, Meghan Ory, Harley Morenstein and Keegan Connor Tracy.

Crackle will debut DEAD RISING: WATCHTOWER in its feature-length form in the U.S. in 2015. After Crackle's exclusive distribution run, the project will also be released on SVOD, DVD, VOD and TV. Content Media Corporation will distribute Dead Rising: Watchtower in both feature-length and episodic formats for all international platforms.
