Celebrate the 45th Anniversary of George A. Romero’s Dawn of The Dead as it was meant to be seen – on the BIG SCREEN in 3-D!
New Amsterdam Entertainment Inc.® is proud to announce that the critically acclaimed horror classic, George A. Romero’s Dawn of the Dead, is returning home to the silver screen in both theaters and drive-ins across the U.S. and Canada this April and May in celebration of its 45th Anniversary!
Long heralded as one of the greatest, most influential horror films of all time, this ferocious cinematic shocker has been among the most requested theatrical revival titles from fright fans the world over for the last 30+ years.
Once an omnipresent staple of midnight movie programs, George A. Romero’s gut-chomping, genre-defining sequel to Night of the Living Dead has since all but disappeared from movie screens, as well as every other viewing format available. The cult following is now so large that it is estimated that over 80% of Dawn of the Dead’s fans have never experienced this legendary epic on a real movie screen, so NAE is thrilled to be able to bring the original uncut theatrical version back for the fans and back for the screams!
