"George Romero's landmark film Night of the Living Dead formed the paradigm of modern zombie cinema. George Romero has created five more zombie films, and other directors have remade Romero's movies. This survey of those remakes examines ways in which the sociocultural contexts of different time periods are reflected by changes to the narrative of Romero's original versions"--Provided by publisher.
