'West Side Story: Redux'

Alternate Movie Trailer Spoof

On the heels of the tongue-in-cheek reimagining of "The Shining" coming attractions preview, which has been making the rounds recently on the Internet, IFILM hosts another film's alternative trailer, explaining the premise:
    "In the Summer of 1961, 14 blocks of Manhattan's West Side were quarantined. The source of the outbreak is still unknown. Those who survived spent the next three days defending themselves against the infected. In other words, this isn't your Grandma's 'West Side Story.'"
Edited by Tom Collella of PS260.com, the *new* film is nothing to hum about, instead, the former musical is transformed into perfect zombie entertainment.
