Behind the Scenes of George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead
Now that George A. Romero’s Survival of the Dead is just a few short weeks away from premiering at film festivals in Venice, Toronto, and Austin, we expect more and more info will begin coming in, and today there’s both a behind-the-scenes sneak peek courtesy of MySpace and a new still from Fangoria.
The MySpace video is accompanied by the following note from George himself and a slew of other new pics you can see here.
Hi guys,
Some of you have been asking about the title of my new film. I called it “Survival of the Dead” because it’s about a group of people who escape to a place they think is safe – an island where they hope to survive the war between the living and the dead.
That’s how the story begins. By the end, something happens that makes the word “survival” take on a whole new meaning. I’m not going to give it away now.
Stay Scared,
George Romero
