For all the excitable people who scream at the characters in horror movies and then get abusive when they don't take advice, your day has come. This clever Youtube video series uses footage from Night of the Living Dead to let you test how you'd fare during a zombie takeover. It's fun for a while even if you've seen the film (which I hope you have), and may be a total blast if you haven't. But with television integrating 3-D technology and threatening to take over movie theaters' new cash-cow gimick, I couldn't help but wonder how current directors would adapt if this sort of viewing experience became the norm.
Imagine, a Michael Haneke film where all of your choices lead to one of seven completely devastating endings (and possibly one lecture about your inherent lust for violence). Or a Michael Bay film where your choices dictate whether you see a car chase or a building explosion. Repeat viewings!
Alas, this type of experience seems more suited for the internet, television or DVD extras, so we can probably only dream. Plus we already have video games (though a little bit of interactivity in a Zach Snyder movie might go a long way). Anyway, whet your appetite for the next episode of The Walking Dead below:
