Argento respected and trusted Romero and didn't interfere in the shooting process, which was almost unproblematic - despite the hard shooting conditions. Romero knew that it was his only chance to get the budget he needed and agreed - though he sold one of the most important parts in the process of filmmaking (at least for some parts of the world). He took a share and invested 250,000 USD in the project (which means he paid half of the production costs) - on the condition that he was allowed to edit his own version in all non-English-speaking countries.

With detours, Dario Argento his screenplay and he really liked it. His friends, associates of Monroeville Mall, were really keen on his idea and supported him - but Romero, who had come up with some financial desasters before, couldn't find the budget he needed to let the apocalypse he had in mind come true. Looks like he finally found it here in Pittsburgh.

He was looking for a new plot to do a sequel of his surprise hit "Night Of The Living Dead". When George became aware of the fact that the Monroeville-Mall could even give shelter in a nuclear war (remember: we are in the middle of the cold War), people came up with the idea to use the mall as perfect shelter in a case of zombie apocalypse. Romero and some of his friends went to the Monroeville Mall, one of the tremendous malls that really changed society in the late 60s.
