GEORGE ROMERO AND ROY FRUMKES – TOGETHER AGAIN!

THE DEFINITIVE DOCUMENT OF THE DEAD is and all-new version of the classic 'making of' project based on 1978's DAWN OF THE DEAD!
George A. Romero, director of the original NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, is one of the horror genre's most celebrated directors. The original 1979 version of DOCUMENT OF THE DEAD was an intimate look at Romero's creative process, with an outstanding collection of interviews, effects demonstrations (courtesy of makeup artist Tom Savini), and behind-the-scenes footage from Romero's classic 1978 zombie film, DAWN OF THE DEAD.
