Zombie Movies


The Ultimate Guide

Glenn Kay (Author), Stuart Gordon (Foreword by)

Zombie Movies is an essential purchase for all those who love (or fear) horror cinema’s most popular and terrifying creation. This thorough and authoritative yet uproarious guide

• reviews and rates nearly 300 zombie films—from Bela Lugosi’s White Zombie (1932) to George A. Romero’s Diary of the Dead (2008)

• traces the evolution of the zombie over the decades, from voodoo slave to brain-eating undead to raging infected

• lays out what makes a zombie a zombie, as opposed to a ghost, ghoul, vampire, mummy, pod person, rabid sicko, or Frankenstein’s monster

• includes a detailed and chilling journal from the filming of Land of the Dead

• lists the oddest and most gruesome things ever seen in undead cinema

• covers not only mainstream American movies but also small independent productions, Spanish and Italian exploitation pictures, and bizarre offerings from Japan and Hong Kong

• provides a detailed rundown of the 25 greatest zombie films ever made

• features in-depth interviews with actors, directors, makeup effects wizards, and other zombie experts

For serious fans and casual moviegoers alike, Zombie Movies will provide plenty of informative and entertaining brain food.
