Shownotes

The original George A Romero's Dawn of the Dead is part of his series of now six zombie films. The Night of the Living Dead was ground breaking for it's time and had far more to tell us than just being a zombie flick. Dawn of the Dead might have even more to tell us about our society of consumption and capitalism. If you go looking for information on Romero's politics, you'll mostly come up empty, but Dawn of the Dead is without a doubt a very political movie. Cole and I 1dissect this film with the aid of Guy Debord's 1967 book Society of the Spectacle. It's almost as if the movie was made to be brought to light by Debord's book.
