Halloween Screening: Dawn of the Dead
Pioneering
director and horror icon George Romero unleashed onto unsuspecting
viewers the modern film zombie—a specter that remains a shockingly
adaptable metaphor for contemporary life. In honor of the late master of
the undead, we screen one of his classics, Dawn of the Dead. Like Night of the Living Dead before it, Dawn helped shape the zombie genre and tapped into the zeitgeist of its
historical moment with a deft combination of blood, tension, and social
satire.

Over 100 years ago, Posada gave us many of the foundational images of Dia de los Muertos that are still venerated today and which have become treasured images of Mexican culture and identity. J.G. Posada reminds us that art is power – political and social speech – mass produced by the printing presses and now social media. Posada’s La Catrina asks us to embrace the beauty and grace inherent in facing our own death and the inevitable loss of those we love. By facing loss with love, and art, we find transcendence."
