'THE GRAVE WILL GIVE UP ITS OWN, UNTIL THE WORLD WILL BE FILLED WITH THE áWALKING DEAD.'áLondon throbs with terror when the dead rise from their graves and walk its streets. The city will soon be overrun. The horror of it all is driving residents to madness and suicide. One victim suffers possession, stigmata and crucifixion. With occult forces at work, civilization may be doomed!áDecades before Night of the Living Dead (1968), The Exorcist (1973) and other industrial-strength shockers, Tod BrowningâÇÖs 1932 screen treatment and script The Revolt of the Dead anticipated their horrors - and at the same time echoed BrowningâÇÖs Dracula (1931) by featuring duplicates of several of that filmâÇÖs major characters. Enter an unexplored corner of BrowningâÇÖs universe as the Scripts from the Crypt series world-premieres this ultra-rare work, along with background information unearthed by the redoubtable Prof. Gary D. Rhodes.To delve deeper into BrowningâÇÖs storytelling process, Professors Rhodes, Nathaniel Bell, Will Dodson and Robert Guffey examine multiple script drafts of BrowningâÇÖs Freaks (1932), Mark of the Vampire (1935) and The Devil-Doll (1936) and document the step-by-step evolution of those macabre tales.áThe cinematic universe of Classic HorrorâÇÖs 'darkest' director is about to get weirder, wilder and more shocking!á'A trove of fascinating materials that sheds light on Browning projects made and unmade.'- Murray Leeder, Horror Film: A Critical Introductioná'What Browning intended to bring to the screen would have scandalized and devastated audiences, rocketing the horror genre decades beyond what was considered even remotely possible at the time.'- Stephen R.
