“Survival isn’t just for the living.”  So says the tagline for Survival of the Dead, the most recent addition to George Romero’s zombie oeuvre. It’s a great premise.

But even if the critics don’t bite…with Romero’s name and it being a zombie film, it’s got a built in audience. Someone will distribute this thing, even if it’s just on home video. So until we all get to see it, after the jump are a bunch of new images. Take a look:
