As you may have guessed I am something of a film geek, especially when it comes to George A. Romero's
Dawn of the Dead.

At the last count, I have about 15 different versions of the movie on VHS and DVD. It's kind of like my comfort movie (as Heinz Tomato Soup is a comfort food).
Anyway, I spotted this fantastic
movie blog which is well worth a read as the writer actually
visited the
Monroeville Mall where the film was shot. Good times!
It's strange but this movie never ceases to amaze me as to how chilling and funny a zombie apocalypse could be. Romero's politics and vision of the end of civilisation as we know it is both poignant and resonant even by today' standards. Thirty years on and it still feels kind of timeless in its thematic content.
