Raising the Dead: The Work of George A. Romero by Adam Charles Hart

George A. Romero became a cult hero to horror fans around the world for making beloved masterpieces like Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, but that success meant that, in the eyes of the film industry, that’s all he could ever make. But he was an endlessly creative, restless, hugely creative artist - writing and developing dozens of projects - dramas, goofy comedies, action epics, sci fi extravaganzas, westerns, mysteries, talky dramas, and, yes, horror - that never saw the light of day. 

Adam Charles Hart’s Raising the Dead: The Work of George A. Romero is the first book to survey the entirety of Romero’s creative output, including the massive collection of unproduced scripts and other writings discovered in his archive. This book details the most exciting, funny, insightful writing from the archive and follows Romero’s most persistent ideas as they find their way into new projects and, sometimes, into the familiar horror classics that fans have been watching over and over for decades. 

In the process, Hart provides a revelatory, inspiring new picture of Romero the artist - an artist who never stopped creating, even when the industry turned its back on him, and found himself repeatedly re-inventing the horror genre to make room for the movies he wanted to make. 

"A revelation! This exuberant celebration of horror icon George Romero examines his feature films but also offers an in-depth look at his thematic aspirations beyond horror, his unfinished work and his myriad side projects, shedding light on a film artist's many unrealized dreams in the bruising industry of moviemaking. Hart's depiction of Romero's perseverance elevates this narrative to a commentary on the artistic struggle itself and leaves the reader enlightened, inspired and consoled." -- Larry Fessenden, filmmaker

"The best book on Romero I've ever read -and I've read them all. This is the study I've always dreamed of, one that upends what I know, educates me, and challenges me. Hart's miracle is taking what should be bittersweet subject matter - Romero's voluminous unproduced work- and making it nothing short of inspiring." -- Daniel Kraus, New York Times bestselling author of Angel Down and Whalefall

Excellent dog balls — safe design and very durable
Style: Fetch Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
These fetch balls from Amazon Basics are fantastic, and my dog absolutely loves them. One of the biggest reasons I prefer these over other brands is the hole that runs through the center of the ball. This is a very important safety feature: if a dog were to accidentally get the ball stuck in the back of the throat, the hole allows air to pass through. That small detail could literally make a life-saving difference. Aside from the safety benefit, they bounce well, are easy to clean, and hold up to a lot of playtime. They’re firm but not rock-hard, and my dog goes crazy for them. Great value, great quality, and a thoughtful design. Highly recommended for dog owners who want a safer alternative to standard solid rubber balls.

Great ball for heavy chewers
Style: Assorted Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
Great toy for my Doberman. She chews through tennis balls in about 15 minutes but these are very durable. She likes to chase them but also just chew on them.

My dog loves glowing fetch at night!
Style: Glow Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
Fantastic. Sturdy. My dog loves them Glow in the dark is great for fetch at night. I keep a flashlight with me because the glow doesn't last really long. But they charge very quickly and are really bright.

Indestructible
Style: Fetch Balls (Pack of 2), Size: 3 inch
These balls are indestructible! We have a lab and a lab mix and they CANNOT damage these balls. They love them for fetch and to just chew on them (slightly squishy, but NO damage). Best toys we have bought for them.
