Product Description
Product Description
From White Zombie to Land of the Dead ... 80 zombie movies that shaped a horror subgenre and left us all with a mortal fear of flesh-eating ghouls clawing their way out of the cold, dark earth. Zombiemania takes an in-depth look at one of the most popular horror film categories of all time. What is it that makes us so scared of and yet so attracted to the living dead? Why is it that shambling corpses with a taste for brains, or mindless automatons controlled by a voodoo master still retain such relentless power? Illustrated with many photographs, some published here for the first time, this is one film guide that will leave you with a restless urge to walk the night in search of living flesh.

First-rate guide, May 11 2007
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Zombiemania: 80 Movies to Die for (Paperback)
Entertainment writers Dr. Arnold T. Blumberg & Andrew Hershberger present Zombiemania: 80 Movies To Die For, a guide especially for zombie movie connoisseurs. From "28 Days Later" to "Night of the Living Dead" to even movies that are not overtly about zombies overrunning the world such as "Pirates of the Caribbean", Zombiemania offers all the juicy, flesh-rending morsels a zombie movie lover could want. From a plot synopsis, to notes on continuity or logical quirks, to cast lists, behind the scenes tidbits, black-and-white photographs, notes on ideas borrowed from other movies and where cast members appeared before, critical analyses, and much more, Zombiemania provides an in-depth portrait of the 80 zombie movies it profiles. An additional title index with over 550 films described and cross-referenced (taking alternate titles into account) rounds out this first-rate guide, especially recommended as a Halloween giftbook.

This review is from: Zombiemania: 80 Movies to Die for (Paperback)
A great tool to reference the greatest zombie movies ever made..And a little controversial since some of my favorites did not show up in the top 80..
