About this book
The story
Partially Devoured, Volume 1, explores the profound cultural impact of George A. Romero’s horror classic, Night of the Living Dead. Author Daniel Kraus provides a meticulous examination of the film through a blend of research and memoir. This work of history and criticism functions as a deep dive into how a single genre film shaped history, culture, and psychology. Kraus uses a frame-by-frame analysis to investigate the film's importance while weaving in personal reflections on childhood trauma and rural isolation.
This volume of Partially Devoured sits at the intersection of performing arts, biography, and film criticism. It moves between intense film analysis and personal tangents, offering a kaleidoscopic view of how horror influences our lives. Readers interested in memoirs, science fiction and fantasy, or the study of genre films will find this investigation into cinematic legacy both informative and deeply personal. It remains a significant contribution to the study of dramatic cinema and media history.
