DAWN OF THE DEAD Original Japanese Movie Poster 20x29 B2 - 1979 - George Romero

Dawn of the Dead (also known as Zombi internationally) is a 1978 horror film, written and directed by George A. Romero. It was the second film made in Romero's Living Dead series, but contains no characters or settings from Night of the Living Dead, and shows in larger scale a zombie epidemic's apocalyptic effects on society. In the film, a pandemic of unknown origin has caused the reanimation of the dead, who prey on human flesh, which subsequently causes mass hysteria. The cast features David Emge, Ken Foree, Scott Reiniger and Gaylen Rossas survivors of the outbreak who barricade themselves inside a suburban shopping mall.
