The opportunity to sit down and listen to George Romero, Tom Savini, Max Brooks and others that have been involved in the resurgence of zombies in recent years was golden.
Romero is acknowledge by all to be the grandfather, godfather, whatever kind of father you want of the modern zombie movie. His Night of the Living Dead, was the beginning of the resurgence. The fact that it was a highly political film was discussed and added to the pleasure.
Seeing the different forms of makeup and the gradual changes in makeup was also something that will help us enjoy these movies.
There were many commentators, and, if things go the way Romero says, and the genre dies soon only to reemerge in the future, there are many of us that will continue to watch, and await the next step in the evolving genre.
