George A. Romero started his zombie series in 1968 with Night of the Living Dead, which shattered many expectations of the day by featuring a black man in the hero role, and using flesh eating undead as a symbol of the punishment our complacent society potentially deserves. Romero went on to direct Dawn of the Dead and Ed Travishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16418392912255761240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9772941.post-1116491588684950112005-05-19T01:27:00.000-07:002005-05-19T08:52:49.516-07:00Star Wars: Episode III- Revenge of the Sith—Overview —Photos —About this Film pdf —Spiritual Connections A dark lord rises and the tragic downfall of a hero is made complete, as is a series of films that have enraptured audiences worldwide for almost thirty years now.
