Crackle, Sony’s free streaming network, today released its brand new original film, Dead Rising: Endgame.  It’s been two years since investigative reporter Chase Carter (Jesse Metcalfe) discovered that the Army and pharmaceutical giant Phenotrans had conspired to engineer the zombie outbreak in the East Mission City quarantine area. Now working at the television network UBC, Chase continues to pursue any lead that will expose the plot and reveal the Army’s complicity in the kidnapping of his former partner Jordan Blair (Keegan Connor Tracy).

Following up on an informant’s tip, Chase gathers damning evidence of a criminal enterprise involving powerful two-star Army General Lyons (Dennis Haysbert).  But his discovery has unforeseen consequences, as Chase learns when a corporate whistleblower named George Hancock (Ian Tracey) reveals the chilling dimensions of a rogue military operation called “Afterlife.” A potential massacre is only hours away and it’s up to Chase and his team – his colleagues Jill (Jill Harmon) and Sandra (Marie Avgeropoulos), Hancock and sardonic combat vet Garth (Patrick Sabongui) – to thwart Lyons’ plans. Descending behind the walls of East Mission City, the would-be rescuers find themselves in a zombie-infested hell-zone unlike any other: thanks to the perverse brilliance of Rand (Billy Zane), the undead are faster, meaner and more terrifying than ever.

 

The film is based on Capcom’s enormously popular zombie video game franchise, Dead Rising, which has sold more than 9.1 million copies worldwide.  This year marks the 10th Anniversary of the North American release of Dead Rising.  Most recently, Dead Rising 4 was announced and expected to release in December 2016.

 

Legendary Digital Studios presents a DR2/Contradiction Films Production of DEAD RISING: ENDGAME. Directed by Pat Williams (“Continuum”) and written by Michael Ferris (TERMINATOR SALVATION, TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES) and Tim Carter (DEAD RISING: WATCHTOWER, MORTAL KOMBAT: LEGACY).  Based on the video game Dead Rising by CAPCOM.  Produced by Tim Carter. Executive producers Tomas Harlan, Haruhiro Tsujimoto, Kiichiro Urata and Thomas Lesinski.
