Description
TWO POSTERS for Price of One! Original 1978 ZOMBI Title Sheet Linenbacked along with Standard Photobusta Poster. This is a linen-backed movie poster of the movie The Dawn of the Dead from 1978. It is from the estate of a long-time collector.
With such a shoestring budget, the film couldn't afford professional stunt people outside of drivers, so makeup artist Tom Savini and assistant and friend Taso N. Stavrakisvolunteered for the task. They are responsible for almost every stunt seen in the film, though not all went perfectly as planned. When filming a dive over the rail of the mall, Savini almost missed his pile of cardboard boxes, with his legs and back landing on the ground. He had to work from a golf cart for several days. The shot where Stavrakis swung down from a banner was poorly planned and he wound up continuing on and slamming into the ceiling.;Director :George A Romero, Dario Argento (Pro); Cast : David Emge, Ken Foree, Scott H. Reiniger, Gaylen Ross, Tom Savini;This sequel to Night of the Living Dead is filled with splattered blood and brains in living color. The dead have come back to life to eat the living. This is the story of four people's escape from an urban nightmare to a suburban one. They barricade themselves in a shopping mall and try to start new lives. Much of this movie was filmed outside Pittsburgh.
