Pet Zombies trailer spoofs those super sad ASPCA/Sara McLachlan animal cruelty commercials. This is just a terrific idea for this spot — it almost makes up for the otherwise nonexistent promotion for the game.

The concept for the game is also great: it’s a parody of those Ubisoft Petz games that flooded the DS, but instead you’re nurturing, feeding, torturing, and playing minigames with the undead. It’s a fun idea, but I don’t think that joke will be compelling enough to convince people to spend $30 on a zombie pet-raising sim…
