Ken Foree in person for a post film Q&A on the Music Box stage and in the Music Box Lounge pre and post screening to sell merchandise and autographs.

Celebrate the 45th anniversary of DAWN OF THE DEAD at the Music Box Theatre special guest Ken Foree in person. 

Writer-director George A. Romero ups the ante on his indie landmark NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD with a bigger budget, more gore (courtesy of special effects/makeup artist Tom Savini) and a touch of social commentary. Four people take refuge in a Pennsylvania shopping mall as a mysterious plague turns fresh corpses into flesh-hungry zombies and civilization collapses around them.
