Can you believe it has already been seven years since Land of the Dead was released? George Romero attended Canadian Cinema Editors’ screening of Land of the Dead earlier this week, and it included a Q&A session with George Romero and the film's editor, Michael Doherty.
If you missed out on this event, don't worry. If you live anywhere near Toronto, you can still get tickets for TIFF's In Conversation With... George A. Romero:
As we kick off our retrospective Living Dread: The Cinema of George A. Romero, the Godfather of Zombiedom himself joins TIFF International Programmer Colin Geddes on Halloween night for a celebration of his legendary career. A true maverick of American independent cinema, Romero has worked outside the mainstream studio system for over five decades as a writer, producer and director of such groundbreaking horror classics as Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Martin, The Crazies and Creepshow, redefining the genre through a clever blend of outrageous gore and radical social and political allegory.
The event takes place this Halloween and you can learn more at: http://tiff.net/filmsandschedules/tiffbelllightbox/2012/2550004414
