Description
In 1968, a young filmmaker made a black-and-white film, Night of the Living Dead, the first instalment of a tetralogy that continued until 2005.
Romero dusted off the genre and, at a time of Vietnam War and social unrest, invented one of the great figures of American cinema: the zombie.
A political metaphor, the zombie became the symbol of a nation obsessed with the question of the Other and the definition of Evil.
The book therefore answers various questions: what worldview do the undead represent? What critical image of society do they reflect back to us?
