DAWN OF THE DEAD 
by George Romero & Susanna Sparrow

In recent years, only a few motion pictures have achieved the status of a cult following. NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD is such a film. Made almost a decade ago, this grisly and innovative horror film still attracts cinema-goers - those who have the necessary guts, that is - today. It is now part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Now the Living Dead walk again. Their numbers have increased - and so has their hunger for human flesh. A handful of ill-assorted fugitives seek to escape this horrendous doom. Finally, cornered, they fight the shambling, unstoppable ghouls as DAWN OF THE DEAD hurtles to its shocking - and surprising - conclusion...

A compellingly gruesome film, DAWN OF THE DEAD is also a terrifying and gripping novel.
