THE ULTIMATE PRESENTATION WITH 4+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES
In the early '80s, Independent-International co-founder/president Samuel M. Sherman (DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN) took an unfinished zombie movie by Brett Piper (QUEEN CRAB) and began tinkering. He shot additional scenes featuring nuclear terrorists, a mad doctor, a kid (former child star Scott Schwartz of A CHRISTMAS STORY, THE TOY and NEW WAVE HOOKERS 5 fame) who converts a LaserDisc player into a ray gun, 1930's cowboy star Bob Allen, a roasted hamster, The Three Stooges and retired octogenarian Zita Johann (THE MUMMY), then added an unstoppable earworm of an opening credits song to create a drive-in epic unlike any ever experienced before or since. RAIDERS OF THE LIVING DEAD is now scanned in 2K from the negative of the final release version, with over 4 hours of new & archival Special Features - including two previous cuts in their entirety - that reveal the full insane saga.

Press Quotes
Proudly within the Independent-International tradition... It demonstrates that Sam Sherman was perfectly capable of performing an Al Adamson-style job all by himself.
—1000 Misspent Hours
It's so damn weird that everyone should experience it... It manages to mix terrorists, zombies, a sociopathic kid who invents a death ray, The Three Stooges and one of the most brilliant opening songs you've ever heard.
—Through The Shattered Lens
Fascinating and surprisingly fun... It could very well be Sam Sherman's greatest accomplishment since Zandor Vorkov.
—Temple of Schlock
