Night of the Living Dead: Intro and Film FULLY BOOKED

  • The Portico Library 57 Mosley Street Manchester, England, M2 3HY United Kingdom (map)

£5 or pay what you can. Book here.

As the nights draw and day light gets shorter, the Portico Library is embracing horror and exploring what makes us shiver. Starting with Black History Month, Erica Tucker has curated and will introduce two classic films that explore African American identity. Screened in the intimate space of our Reading Room, join us for a very special evening.

Starring Duane Jones and Judith O'Dean, Night of the Living Dead follows seven people who become trapped in a farmhouse in rural Pennsylvania, which is under assault by a group of undead ghouls. It is frequently identified as the first modern zombie film.

Certificated at 18. We will ask for age verifying ID if you look younger.
