    NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD

    GEORGE A. ROMERO United States, 1968

    Some like ghost stories, and some prefer their undead as a bloodthirsty horde. Here’s where the world’s zombie obsession began: George Romero’s landmark classic, a raging, subversive, apocalyptic bonfire of a film. By the time the lights came up, horror would never be the same—and it still shocks.

    THERE'S ALWAYS VANILLA

    GEORGE A. ROMERO United States, 1971

    George A. Romero may be synonymous with horror, but he did occasionally step outside his preferred genre. Made after Night of the Living Dead, There’s Always Vanilla is an offbeat romantic comedy charged with countercultural zeal and a distinct empathy for the doldrums of middle-class American life.
