An article in the New York Times highlighted the funeral arrangements for the Monroeville Mall outside of Pittsburg PA. For the non-fright tourists out there, the Monroeville Mall was the filming location for the 1978 zombie movie Dawn of the Dead, directed by George A. Romero.
Inside I shot this video before security asked me to stop.
The film is hard to find, but try this edited copy on Archive.org/
Nearby, was the Monster Bash Movie Convention where I met Conrad Brooks and others.
If this seems familiar, I wrote in the RecreationGeography blog about my earlier visit. Recreation Geography: Fright Tourism 2 and the Monroeville Mall
