New On DVD: Birth Of The Living Dead

New this week from First Run Features is Birth of the Living Dead, a documentary directed by Robert Kuhns, about the making of Night of the Living Dead.

"In 1968 a young college drop-out named George A. Romero directed Night of the Living Dead, a low budget horror film that shocked the world, became an icon of the counterculture, and spawned a zombie industry worth billions of dollars that continues to this day.

Birth of the Living Dead shows how Romero gathered an unlikely team of Pittsburghers policemen, iron workers, teachers, ad-men, housewives and a roller-rink owner to shoot a revolutionary guerrilla style film that went on to become a cinematic landmark, offering a profound insight into how our society worked in a singular time in American history."

Birth of the Living Dead is available now on DVD and Amazon Instant Video.
