'Editing the Dead' lets you choose your own zombie adventure
By Winda Benedetti.
"I say you can never have too many zombie games.But thanks to you-tube now you can"
And certainly, a zombie game that mines some of the most beloved and ground-breaking zombie territory — well that's not just welcome, that's just plain wicked.
George A. Romero’s 1968 flesh-munching classic "Night of the Living Dead" has been turned into a choose-your-own-adventure style game thanks to the wonders of YouTube.
The film has been sliced and diced into bite-size pieces (bite-size pieces, get it?) and, with some help from YouTube's video-linking feature, you can now select how this harrowing and claustrophobic tale of hungry undead and bickering humans unfolds.
Remember those old choose-your-own adventure books from when you were a kid? Yeah. It's like that. But on YouTube
You might be wondering if this project is going to get pulled from YouTube due to copyright issues. But not to worry, "Night of the Living Dead" is now in the public domain thanks to a copyrighting mistake made decades ago. Whoops!
All in all, this is a great way to kill some time while you're waiting for the next episode of "The Walking Dead."
