Diary of the Dead
WHERE WILL YOU BE WHEN THE END BEGINS?
In his first independent zombie film in over two decades, George A. Romero
returns to ground zero in the realm of the undead. A group of film students
making a horror movie in the woods discover that whenever someone dies, they
come back as the living dead. Turning their cameras on the shocking real-life
horrors happening around them, they create a video document, a diary, of their
terrifying encounters and of the world as it becomes overwhelmed by hordes of
the undead.
Told with Romero's pitch-black humour and an unflinching eye on our modern
world, GEORGE A. ROMERO'S DIARY OF THE DEAD marks the legendary
trailblazer's return to his roots.
