Origin of Zombie Pride Day
This was a celebration created by the fans themselves regarding the birthday of George A. Romero, who is considered the father of this genre and is celebrated every February 4.
In this way, the great work of the filmmaker is recognized, mainly for the film “The night of the Living Dead” from 1968 that came to completely change the genre.
This film became a reference when it comes to zombies, mainly those who walk aimlessly, come out of their graves, etc.
Among the director’s most outstanding productions are “Dawn of the Dead”, “Day of the Living Dead”, “Creepshow”, “Land of the Living Dead”, among others.
