Score 1 for the Zombies
In February, Capcom was sued by a film company that claimed Dead Rising ripped off Dawn of the Dead. Now comes news that a judge has dismissed the case:
Last month, United States Magistrate Judge Richard Seeborg granted Capcom’s motion to dismiss the suit, saying that The MKR Group (the producer’s company) “has not identified any similarity between Dead Rising and any protected element of Dawn of the Dead. Rather, the few similarities MKR has alleged are driven by the wholly unprotectable concept of humans battling zombies in a mall during a zombie outbreak.”
