Zombie! Zombies! Zombies! Zombies are everywhere in our culture, in film and television, in video games, in books and comics, in boardgames. Since making their film debut stories of the undead returning to life have fascinated audiences since 1931 with White Zombie and since then they have featured in some of the most beloved films. I Walked with a Zombie, Night of the living dead, Return of the living dead, Shaun of the Dead and 28 days later to name a few.
This video tracks the history of the zombie film since it's inception, though the high points of the zombie film in the '50s and again the 70's and 80's, right through to the present day. It looks at the cultural influences of the zombie menace from magic, radiation and the spread of disease.
Thanks for watching One Hundred Years of Cinema, I will be writing a video essay about at least one film each year from 1915 onward to track the evolution of film over the last century. Please subscribe and share! Thank you!
