Dawn of the Dead (1978)
Body
Featuring an introduction from George A. Romero Foundation COO Jeff Whitehead and Adam Charles Hart, author of the newly published book, Raising the Dead: The Work of George A. Romero.
In 1968, director George A. Romero brought us Night of the Living Dead. It became the definitive horror film of its time. Eleven years later, he would unleash the most shocking motion picture experience for all times. As modern society is consumed by zombie carnage, four desperate survivors barricade themselves inside a shopping mall to battle the flesh-eating hordes of the undead. This is the ferocious horror classic, featuring landmark gore effects by Tom Savini, that remains one of the most important (and most controversial) horror films in history.
