Book of the Dead: The Complete History of Zombie Cinema (Updated & Fully Revised Edition)

The zombie is cinemaâ‚¬s most enduring horror icon, having terrified audiences for decades.Â Book of the DeadÂ charts the history of the walking dead from the monsterâ‚¬s origins in Haitian voodoo,Â through its cinematic debut in 1932â‚¬sÂ White ZombieÂ up to blockbusterÂ World War ZÂ and beyond.

Covering hundreds of movies from America, Europe, Asia and even the Middle East, Jamie Russell examines zombiesâ‚¬ on-screen evolution from Caribbean bogeymen to flesh-eating corpses and apocalyptic plague carriers. With an exhaustive filmography covering the history of theÂ zombie genre,Â Book of the DeadÂ explains our ongoing fascination with the living dead and how this shambolic monster has become a stumbling, moaning metaphor for our age.

Fully revised and updated with over 300 new movies

Includes an exclusive interview with the â‚¬ËœDon of the Deadâ‚¬ George A. Romero
