Рассвет мертвецов
Police Commander
Кошмар зомби, начавшийся в фильме «Ночь живых мертвецов», продолжается. Спасшиеся от ужаса мертвых на вертолете, четверо путешественников вынуждены приземлиться на крышу супермаркета. Там они находят пищу, приют и неприятности. Многоэтажный магазин сверху донизу забит глупыми ходячими трупами. Развлекая себя отстрелом мертвецов, люди и не подозревают, что всего через несколько часов один из них станет тем, кого они так легко убивают — плотоядным зомби, а чуть позже в магазин нагрянет банда отморозков, не делающая различия между живым и мертвым, единственным желанием которых является жажда наживы и насилия.

Lenny Bruce: Without Tears
Narrator
The outrageous, groundbreaking comic Lenny Bruce, whose iconoclastic material in a conservative era got him into tragic trouble, is profiled by a close friend, Fred Baker, who prefers to remember the laughs Lenny Bruce's memory evokes instead of the tears. By presenting Bruce's landmark skits on the Steve Allen Show, his failed TV pilot episode and a candid interview with Nat Hentoff, Bruce's genius and anguish show through the dramatic and tragic trajectory of his career from aspiring artist to hunted "lawbreaker".
