GEORGE A. ROMERO’S DIARY OF THE DEAD
by George A. Romero

The master of horror returns to the kind of filmmaking he pioneered and the genre he in vented. In his first independent zombie film in over 20 years, George A. Romero takes us back to ground zero in the history of the living dead. Jason Creed and a small crew of college filmmakers are in the Pennsylvania woods making a no-budget horror film when they hear the terrifying news that the dead have started returning to life. Led by Jason’s girlfriend, Debra, the frightened young filmmakers set off to try to get back to the only safety and security they know: their homes. But there is neither an escape nor any real home for them anymore.
Jason documents the true-life horrors in a tense, first-person style that heightens the reality of each encounter. Even as his friends die, even as they are attacked by ravenous walking corpses, Jason keeps filming, an obsessive, unflinching eye in the midst of chaos.
