365 Tarot Spreads: Revealing the Magic in Each Day - Sasha Graham 2014

Zombie Apocalypse Spread

On This Day

Films before Romero’s sourced zombies from Voodoo mythology, depicting zombies as innocent creatures revived and controlled by a powerful master. Forced to do his bidding or be his work force, zombies were cheap labor for wealthy tycoons.

On this day in 1968 George Romero’s black-and-white zombie film Night of the Living Dead premiered. It became a cult classic and a landmark zombie experience. Existential dread fills zombie movies settings where nothing—not family, love, or law—will save victims from random acts of zombie annihilation. Romero’s zombies were the first depiction of a flesh-eating zombie that follows its own instinct for human meat.
