Four standing ovations, and that was before the movie even started. But then again, this was George Romero and 1,167 of his friends and fans, famous and otherwise, at the Byham Theater, Downtown.
Romero and the Pittsburgh premiere of "Land of the Dead" were the main attractions but Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez and "Shaun of the Dead" collaborators Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg planned to make like teens and go to the mall, too.
Not just any mall but Monroeville Mall, home of the original "Dawn of the Dead."
