Gore-hounds rejoice! The Maestro returns with a new instalment in his epic anthology of all things zombie.
It’s the present, society is disintegrating, and the living dead return to walk the earth. A student film crew documents the carnage as one by one they fall victim to the undead hordes. Their documentary, entitled 'The Death of Death', is presented to the viewer as the unedited truth, and an antidote to the lies broadcast by the mainstream media. Within the rich conceit of a film-within-a-film, Romero deconstructs genre clichés, while biting the very hand that feeds him. The satire is spiced with comedy and bathos, but fanboys/girls need never fear. The splatter dips deep into new depths of ooze, and the final shot is a real doozie! [Incredibly Strange Festival 2008]
