Feedback

Greg Bishop – Director, Dance of the Dead: “When I was scouting locations to shoot DANCE OF THE DEAD, it was as if the script was written for Rome, Georgia. That town had everything we needed. Most of our movie takes place in a high-school, so we took over an abandoned school which became our base camp. Then the rest of the town became our back lot and the fine townsfolk became our extras. Rome, Georgia welcomed us with open arms and went above and beyond in helping us make this film possible. This movie could not have been made without their dedication and hard work.”
