Raiders of the Living Dead

Raiders of the Living Dead
“IT’S SO DAMN WEIRD
THAT EVERYONE SHOULD EXPERIENCE IT…
It manages to mix terrorists, zombies,
a sociopathic kid who invents a death ray, The Three Stooges,
and one of the most brilliant opening songs you’ve ever heard.”
Through The Shattered Lens

THE ULTIMATE PRESENTATION
WITH 4+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES

In the early ‘80s, Independent-International co-founder/president Samuel M. Sherman (DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN) took an unfinished zombie movie by Brett Piper (QUEEN CRAB) and began tinkering. He shot additional scenes featuring nuclear terrorists, a mad doctor, a kid (former child star Scott Schwartz of A CHRISTMAS STORY, THE TOY and NEW WAVE HOOKERS 5 fame) who converts a laserdisc player into a ray gun, 1930’s cowboy star Bob Allen, a roasted hamster, The Three Stooges, retired octogenarian Zita Johann (THE MUMMY), an unstoppable earworm of an opening credits song and much more to create a drive-in epic unlike any ever experienced before or since. RAIDERS OF THE LIVING DEAD is now scanned in 2K from the negative of the final release version, with over 4 hours of new & archival Special Features – including two previous cuts in their entirety – that reveal the full ROTLD saga.
