Heart Wrenching Dead Island Trailer Re-Shot in Live Action

November 1, 2013 by Yesika Reyes

Remember that heartbreaking backwards Dead Island trailer? Here’s a live action version by Machinima.

Machinima posted a re-shot live action version of the famous Dead Island trailer that featured a family's heartbreaking demise through non-linear sequences.

While there are small details that couldn't be replicated, it is extremely close to the original CGI trailer. The chopped limbs, hotel room, characters, and zombies were closely mimiced. 

Earlier this year, we reported that the first game has sold more than five million unit since its launch in September 2011.
