THE FINAL HEXPLOITATION FILM FESTIVAL SCREENINGS EVER!
Celebrate the 45th Anniversary of the ultimate zombie classic, George A. Romero’s DAWN OF THE DEAD, as it was meant to be seen – on the Big Screen! Co-presented with Playhouse Cinema Hamilton
The Hexploitation Film Festival is incredibly proud to join our friends at The Playhouse to present George A. Romero's classic DAWN OF THE DEAD (1978) on the big screen in Hamilton to celebrate the 45th Anniversary of its 1979 North American Premiere.
Dawn of the Dead is rarely screened in cinemas and virtually unavailable on physical media and streaming in North America. Do not miss this rare opportunity to experience the gory, action-packed horror shocker that defined the zombie movie genre and forever changed the face of horror movies.
SYNOPSIS
During an escalating zombie epidemic, two SWAT team members, a traffic reporter, and his TV executive girlfriend seek refuge in a large shopping mall. After eradicating the flesh-eating zombies and securing the mall in a lockdown, they find everything they need to survive. Despite their material wealth, interpersonal relationships begin to strain and they grow complacent to a cunning and dangerous threat descending upon the mall.
