Dead Rising

Dead Rising follows the harrowing tale of Frank West, an overly zealous freelance photojournalist on a hunt for the scoop of a lifetime. He suddenly finds himself in a small suburban town overrun by zombies.

Introduction

From the official website: The city is Willamette, Colorado. One day, this small, run-of-the-mill town found itself sealed off from the rest of the world. National Guard troops blocked off the roads and all transmission were put into a tight information lockdown. Communication lines were closed off and the wireless radio waves were jammed. Something was going down. Something big, real big.

Enter Frank West, freelance photojournalist. His instincts have gotten him out of some nasty situations in the past and this time they tell him something huge is happening. Armed with a camera, he hires a junker helicopter to take him in. With luck, he’ll score the biggest story of his career. The helicopter pilot, oblivious to the state of emergency, does his usual tour guide thing. “Here she is, Willamette, Colorado. Population 53,594!”
