The crew at Night Zero love zombies. They have a graphic novel series where they use real actors to tell their zombie horror story. I've gone through a few pages and like it so far.
Recently, they took a small break from their comic to come up with this tribute to Left 4 Dead, called Left 5 Dead. Night Zero found real people that look like the four heroes from the game and dressed them up as the characters to create this fantastic photo shoot. Some Photoshop was used as well to help give the pictures the Left 4 Dead feel.
In some of the photos on the Flickr page, there is an additional member (hence the name of the shoot). His name is Jack and he looks like a pirate. Not sure why he's in the shoot, but I wouldn't turn him away if I was in the middle of a zombie apocalypse ... even if he is a dirty stinking pirate.
Check out Night Zero for behind-the-scenes pictures from the shoot and keep an eye on the site as they promise to have more Left 5 Dead pictures going up in the near future.

He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

...other than the pirate. Like, to the point where it's throwing me off. I feel he makes the pics he's included in slightly worse (especially that group pose one).
These are rad though.
Actually, everyone needs to put down the HDR.
