I have my doubts on the outcome of this...

Another video game-based movie waiting to get criticized badly.

The main thing about this one is it's an independent film, which means it will not have the same budget like a movie such as Resident Evil. Also it's technically considered an unofficial movie for the game, but it certainly has an interesting trailer. Although I really don't find a movie based off Left 4 Dead necessary, but maybe it will be good because it's an independent film.

I personally am not going to watch it. But hey, look at the bright side:

It's not being made by Uwe Boll.

The trailer was a little...lacking. I've only seen the game played before, never myself, but it felt like more of an excuse to blow up zombies (which is fair enough in its own right) than the plot-rich material needed to base a decent film off. I may be wrong however.

Great, yet another zombie armageddon game gets adapted into a movie. Don't get your hopes up, folks.

Well the good thing about an independent film is that while a plot is necessary, it's not entirely desired as much as for a full blown movie. Since in the game each chapter was like a movie in itself, maybe they can use that for the movie. Of course, in the game the chapters were at least an hour each, and if this movie is only supposed to be 20 or 25 minutes, then that might be a problem.
