The Book of the Dead: The Complete History of Zombie Cinema by Jamie Russell Book of the Dead charts the ghoulish history of zombie cinema, from the creature's origins in Haitian voodoo to its cinematic debut in 1932's "White Zombie," George A. Romero's classic quartet of "Dead" movies, and recent hits like "28 Days Later," "Shaun of the Dead," and "Land of the Dead." Covering hundreds of movies from America, Europe and Asia, this comprehensive book chronicles the zombie's on-screen evolution from Caribbean bogeyman to flesh-eating corpse, looking at Bela Lugosi B-movies, Italian gore films, Asian zombies, British zombies, blind monk zombies, shot-on-video backyard epics, and the videogame "Resident Evil." Includes an exhaustive filmography and hundreds of stills, with 64 pages of color photos and rare international poster art. 320 pages. |
