It's been acknowledged here at Joystiq HQ that the Dead Island trailer released earlier this week is pretty much a jaw dropper. Unfortunately, about half of it also backwards and in slow motion, which seems like kind of an oversight for the Dead Island marketing department. Thankfully, the editors at G4 have rectified the situation and pieced the trailer together in its proper chronological order.

Also, as an experiment, they remixed the trailer again, this time tossing in some cheerful music and goofy sound effects. Let this be a reminder to all the aspiring trailer artists out there: It's all in the editing. Check out both remixes after the break.
