"Twilight of The Dead" is George Romero's final script in the "Night of The Living Dead" series which he created in 1968. It is the perfect end to the Living Dead series with a very real message about how humanity is the cause of its own destruction...over and over again.
"As the last man on earth tries to protect a little girl he is taken in by a unique village of zombies who have mysteriously begun to evolve and create their own seemingly peaceful civilization." Our film shines a spotlight on what the final outcome of the human race will be if we continue down this extremely divided path all shown through the lens of a world inhabited by zombies.
