FREDDY KRUEGER, BUFFY, & MACHETE BATTLE ZOMBIES IN CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS CORPORATION - CALL OF THE DEAD

Channeling the fake trailers of the Grindhouse era of the 70's, Activision Publishing, Inc. and Treyarch have created a trailer featuring famed horror and action stars Robert Englund, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Michael Rooker and Danny Trejo in the cast of Call of Duty: Black Ops Escalation's zombie level, Call of the Dead.


According to Shocktillyoudrop, the Call of the Dead storyline is inspired by none other than legendary horror writer and director, George A. Romero, who also stars as himself in the new level and features Freddy Krueger, Buffy Summers, The Walking Dead's Michael Rooker and Machete battling zombies.

"Our latest zombie creation, Call of the Dead, is unreal!" says Mark Lamia, Studio Head of Treyarch. "We set out to create an exciting new zombie experience for fans of the genre that takes Zombies to an insane new level."

"This is Treyarch's tribute to the legendary George Romero, who truly defined the zombie genre and whose incredible work has been such an inspiration to our team," says Dave Anthony, Call of Duty: Black Ops Director. "It was an absolute honor to work with such an amazing and talented cast whose passion and energy brought their characters instantly to life. Fans are going to love this."

Not only do I love the awesomeness of this game, but I love the trailer as well. If we can get a Freddy vs. Jason-style film made out of this trailer (like what happened with Machete going from fake trailer to feature film), that would be awesome as well. Oh, and in case you were wondering, the rock track featured in the trailer is from Return of the Living Dead, a film I happen to be obsessed with.
