How Black Zombie Performed
Black Zombie's Blurbs
About me:
Maya Annik Bedward wrote and directed this documentary about where zombies really come from: Haitian Vodou, where the zombie started as a folk story about slavery long before it turned into a horror movie monster. It digs into how Hollywood bent that history out of shape. You will never watch a zombie movie the same way again.
Who I'd like to meet:
Anyone who has seen every zombie movie and wants to know where it all started.
