We don’t speak enough about the joys of the Dead Rising Franchise, and while the second iteration falls just shy of being the best in the series, it does have a memorable father figure in the form of Chuck Greene.
Unfortunately for our Chuck, his daughter Katey has been infected with the horrible zombie virus by her mother, and so he must routinely top her up with Zombrex to prevent her from turning. It’s a grim tale to say the least, but that’s what makes Chuck such a good dad as it’s through the adversity he must overcome that he proves his commitment to do right by his kid.
In the face of thousands of zombies, looters and demanding survivors he still manages to pull through time and time again.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
