Romero's Living Dead Movies: Diary Timeline
The Diary Timeline presents a fresh take within the Living Dead universe, starting with Romero's found footage reinvention of the outbreak. These films offer a new narrative approach and exist as a separate continuity from the classic story.
This watch order is a good choice for viewers looking for a more contemporary, experimental vision of the zombie apocalypse, independent of the earlier movies. It should be noted that these films never reach the same heights as Romero's genre-defining earlier works.
There are 3 other watch orders available - see the links up above.
