You don’t get more prolific in the zombie genre than writer-director George A. Romero. When you hear the word zombie, his name comes to mind. Sadly, we lost Romero when he passed away on July 16, 2017. But July 16 left behind several projects, including the half-written novel The Living Dead. Romero’s widow wanted to see the novel complete, so she reached out to best-selling novelist Daniel Kraus, the same author who co-wrote The Shape of Water with Guillermo del Toro.
