Summary/Abstract: Although the word zombie reminds the cannibalistic walking dead devoid of agency, in its Haitia Although cinema is very young compared to previous art forms, it has become perhaps the most popular of these forms and the one that can reach numerous audiences. However, it has also taken its place among the rare art forms that are more discussed and whose death or end is declared. Discussions on the end-death of art originating from the history of philosophy focus primarily on literary forms such as literature and traditional narrative, and on visual arts with the invention of the camera. Cinema, which makes it possible to tell a story with moving pictures and sound, has been accused of being the sign of the end of previous art forms and has also been a developing art form. It has faced the declaration of its own end-death as an art with every new technology. In this respect, the study focuses on the end-death of cinema, which is associated with the concepts of loss of vital functions, death, which is the end, and end, which means what has existed until now but no longer exists. In the study, if it is possible to talk about an end-death for cinema, as is often claimed in the historical process, it is questioned when this happened, and if cinema is dead-finished, what is referred to as cinema today? In this respect, the study will firstly reveal what is meant by the end-obituary by focusing on the ongoing philosophical continuation of the end-death of art and the discussions centered on the end-death of cinema.
