The Zombie Film Festival will screen recent zombie films alongside classics and rarities, and last from October 26 until Halloween night.

Keynote Lecture by Max Brooks, Author of The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead and World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War

No ticket is required for entry to the Max Brooks lecture on Friday, October 26.

Admission is free!*

Not just popular, zombie movies can squeeze explosive politics into tiny budgets, test limits with strikingly new camerawork and ideas, or brim with shiny Hollywood resources and an earnest commitment to shocks and gore. They can change how we think about world cinema, the threat of war, the comedy of terror, the panic and contagion in our crowds, and the fascination with images of death.

The Providence Zombie Film Festival is brought to you by the Malcolm S. Forbes Center for Research in Culture and Media Studies, the Creative Arts Council, the Watson Institute, Brown's Department of Modern Culture & Media, and the Cable Car Cinema.
