This documentry had interviews with Wes Craven, Tobe Hooper, Tom Savani, George Romero, Cronenberg and more. Tracked the progression of the horror film and attempted to connect that with international and domestic politics of the time. Some proposals seemed to work such as the idea of Dawn of the Dead as a alegorical representation of Vietnam-like slaughter; Other ideas were weaker like comparing zombies to civil rights protestors. Great Quote from George Romero: "I love zombies because they have always been the blue collar monster."
