Call of Duty: Black Ops ‘Call of the Dead’ Zombies Trailer and Screens

Activision and Treyarch have taken the wraps off ‘Call of the Dead,’ the new zombie level that makes up one of five maps in the ‘Escalation’ DLC pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops.

‘Call of the Dead’ is foremost a tribute to legendary horror filmmaker George A. Romero. The storyline has been written as an homage to Romero and includes the filmmaker as himself in the game.

Joining Romero to fend off hoardes of zombie attackers is Buffy herself Sarah Michelle Gellar, Robert Englund aka the man behind Freddy Kruger, Michael Rooker of AMC’s ‘The Walking Dead,’ and Machete’s Danny Trejo. Each is dressed in attire similar to that of their famous on-screen personas.

You can catch a first look at ‘Call of the Dead’ in the first trailer and screens from the new zombies level below. Click on any of the screenshot thumbnails to view the high resolution version.

Call of Duty: Black Ops ‘Escalation’ featuring ‘Call of the Dead’ and four other maps will be available May 3 on Xbox 360 Marketplace. Pricing is still to be determined.
