This Week In Viral – Even More Terminator Dan Koelsch, April 5, 2009July 18, 2010 Well, the Terminator Salvation viral just keeps getting better.

The video on the page talks about Judgement Day, so it’s logical to assume that this countdown is for that. (Please note that this viral has yet to be confirmed as official). The Resist Or Be Terminated group also have a new video. The site’s writer claims the video just showed up on his computer. Looks like it’s from the future!
