The movie based on Dead Island’s trailer is back on
Back in 2011, we reported that Lionsgate had picked up the rights to make a movie that was, essentially, based on video game Dead Island’s legitimately excellent announcement trailer. The game itself—made by a studio called Deep Silver—didn’t end up being anything especially notable beyond its solid zombie-punching mechanics, but man, that trailer. Anyway, that movie never happened, but Dead Island 2 was announced at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo with a pretty good trailer of its own, so now the idea for a Dead Island movie is getting stirred up again.
