DREAD CENTRA:L: http://www.dreadcentral.com/news/46089/more-brains-return-living-dead-retrospective-its-way

The horror world has seen a ton of retrospectives thus far, and there's another on the way. There's no doubt that when it comes to The Return of the Living Dead, there are lots of tales to tell, and so they shall be.

The official website for More Brains! A Return of the Living Dead Retrospective just opened its doors recently, and just like on the project itself there's very little information involved.

However, several of the folks behind it, including first-time director Bill Philputt as well as Thommy Hutson and Lito Velasco, are Never Sleep Again alumni so you know at the very least it will be done the right way. More info as it comes.

Huh, I wonder if these new docs will get old quick. At least Friday and Elm Street has years of history to look at, what are they going to talk about for single movies?

[JBirdman13]

Yea hopefully this covers more than just the first film.

Yea hopefully this covers more than just the first film.

Yeah I guess if it covered the first 3 it could be  interesting. This reminds me I never wrote my blurb for that book they were writing about the franchise.

I actually didn't mind 4 and 5 either.  Necropolis was pretty dumb, but Rave to the Grave was pretty sweet.

It worked in the movie!" When an army drum is breached and a mysterious chemical gas is released into a nearby cemetery, the dead return to life with only one thing on their minds...brains! The zombie menace quickly descends upon a group of misfits who must fight for survival as they are picked off one at a time by a horde of the undead. "Do you ever wonder about all the different ways of dying?" Dan O'Bannon's outrageous splatter classic "The Return of the Living Dead" has continued to terrify and entertain horror fans for over twenty-five years with its delicious mix of blood, guts, sex and punk. Boasting off-beat humor, plenty of attitude and one of the most famous zombies ever committed to celluloid, it's easy to see why the film's legacy continues to grow. "It makes the pain go away..." MORE BRAINS! A RETURN TO THE LIVING DEAD is the ultimate account of the tongue-in-cheek, stylish and apocalyptic zombie movie. It features -- for the first time ever! -- contributions from all the main cast as well as clips, photographs, storyboards, conceptual art, publicity materials, archival documents and behind-the-scenes footage. "They're back from the grave and ready to party!" Through this definitive retrospective fans are finally able to explore the film's journey from the world of "Night of the Living Dead" to the mind of acclaimed writer/director Dan O'Bannon. Narrator Brian Peck ("Scuz") guides you through the blood, sweat and tears as cast and crew look back on their experience in the graveyard creating the film that's been called "a beauty of a cult classic!"

Bonus Features: Never-before-seen deleted, behind-the-scenes, blooper and special effects test footage that brought the Dead to life, 2-hours of incredible bonus features including "A Conversation with Dan O'Bannon: The Final Interview, They Won't Stay Dead: A Look at Return of the Living Dead Part 2, Love Beyond the Grave: A Look at Return of the Living Dead, Stacey Q Live!

This doc looks pretty good, I must say.

[JBirdman13]

It is really good but for some reason I thought they'd have had more in it. Still a solid 8/10 and it's a hoot and a hollar to listen to James Karen, Clu Gulaugher and Miguel Nunez.
