Of Land, Diary and Survival
Description
Romero never let the Dead rest, and neither do we. Come along as we discuss how Romero’s Dead shuffled into the 21st century. We’ll climb into the ivory tower of LAND OF THE DEAD, wrestle with the found-footage chaos of DIARY OF THE DEAD, and weigh the Western-styled grudges of SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD. These films gave us everything from Dennis Hopper’s smug capitalist overlord to camcorder-wielding survivors obsessed with documentation, to families so divided they’d rather fight each other than the zombies at their door. While these entries are often debated among fans, they reveal Romero’s persistence in pushing horror to say something bigger about society. Join us as we sift through what these films meant then - and what they say now. Get ready folks, it's about to get Spooky!
