George A. Romero used zombie horror to comment on American consumerism and racism, and his daughter, Tina Romero, gets equally political with her directorial debut, Queens of the Dead, which is about the queer community eating itself. The horror comedy shambles onto VOD this weekend. You can also visit a creepy abandoned amusement park from the safety of your living room in Shelby Oaks, the directorial debut of YouTube critic Chris Stuckmann.

This post highlights some fascinating films and their deeper meanings, especially Romero’s critique of society. It’s always interesting to see how horror can reflect real-world issues. Looking forward to exploring these movies!
