In a novel that zombie fans everywhere can look forward to we’re getting an updated edition to ‘Book of the Dead: The Complete History of Zombie Cinema’ which is clearly a history of the undead that will constantly need updates with how increasingly popular they have been in the media over the past decade.
Synopsis:
Covering hundreds of movies from America, Europe, Asia, and even the Middle East, Jamie Russell examines zombies’ on-screen evolution from Caribbean bogeymen to flesh-eating corpses and apocalyptic plague carriers. With an exhaustive filmography covering the history of the zombie genre, Book of the Dead explains our ongoing fascination with the living dead and how this shambolic monster has become a stumbling, moaning metaphor for our age.
The ultimate resource for zombie fans everywhere, Book of the Dead includes an exclusive interview with “Don of the Dead†George A. Romero.
