== Overview ==

Corpse Killer is a horror-themed FMV rail shooter developed and published by Digital Pictures released for the 3DO that features live-action full motion video in a format similar to other games developed by the company.

Footage from the game was later recycled for the 2003 film Game Over.

== Story ==

An unnamed United States Marine is airdropped onto a tropical island on a top secret mission to stop the evil Dr. Hellman, who plans to release his army of zombies on the world. He is bitten by a zombie and also meets an attractive female reporter and a Rastafarian male driver. Four of the marine lieutenant's comrades are captured by Hellman and turned into zombies. To rescue them, the lieutenant infiltrates Hellman's compound and shoots each of them with bullets coated with extract from Datura plants, which can turn freshly-created zombies back into humans.

== Game Play ==

Most of the gameplay is similar to other shooting full motion video games such as Lethal Enforcers. The player moves through the jungle shooting various zombies, collecting better ammunition (to prepare for a raid on Hellman's compound) and medicine to recover health.

== Development ==

John Lafia directed the live-action footage, which was filmed on location in the Caribbean, with most scenes being shot in Puerto Rico. The actors portraying the zombies wore latex masks.

== Other Versions ==

The original game was also released for the Sega CD, Sega CD 32X (Of which it was the first CD game for the 32X), Sega Saturn, Windows 95 and Macintosh.

The Sega Saturn version of the title was released with the subtitle of "Graveyard Edition". This version features a few exclusives such as a full-screen video (other versions have the FMV boxed in), improved video quality, a difficulty selection (ranging from normal to bloodthirsty to cannibal), items and power-ups that drop down from the top of the screen and can be shot and collected, and "in your face" zombie attacks. These attacks involve a zombie that pops up immediately in front of the "camera" and attacks the player. They can only be killed with armor-piercing rounds or Datura rounds. The Saturn version is also the only version of the game to lack light gun support (though there is no mention of light guns in the manual or packaging for the 3DO version, it does in fact include light gun support).

It was later remastered for Steam, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.

William Mesa, Flash Film Works and Screaming Villains remastered the game from the original source material in 2019 and re-released it as a "25th Anniversary Edition" for Steam, and PlayStation 4. It was also released in physical PS4 media by Limited Run Games. The new version contained several hours' worth of behind-the-scenes video from the original production as well as hundreds of still images, the original production script and other assorted documents.
