“Night of the Living Dead” Movie Review
“Night of the Living Dead” Plot Summary
A group of people hide from bloodthirsty zombies in a farmhouse.
Horror at its absolute best.
‘Night of the Living Dead’ is proof that you do not need a multi-million dollar movie budget to make an unbelievable movie. This film still frightens many people (including myself) thirty some years after it was made. It is always amazing to me each time I watch this film how it still manages to appeal to my most basic fear instincts. There have been countless movies since this one that have been made for a hundred times as much money that I have seen and forgotten, but I am sure this one will always stay with me
This film does such a fine job of shocking and frightening that it is easy to forget how George Romero made it remarkable in other ways. It was quite a coup in the late 60’s to give a black character the lead in a movie and Romero quite cleverly satirizes race relations throughout the film. I think he is making a point of asking if human beings are really any better than the flesh-eating zombies. This is most potent at the end, when the black character is assumed to be a zombie and is shot and killed. Would they have made that mistake with a white person? Maybe. Maybe not. This is also a point that was severely botched in the 1990 remake, when they actually had Tony Todd’s character become a zombie. In a way, that misses the entire point of the original
Regardless, if you are a horror movie aficionado or someone interested in sociology, this movie must be seen. One thing is for sure. Love it or hate it, it will always stay with you.

Better than most of the horror junk of today.
I found this little jewel in a used video store for about $2. The story is about (spoilers) several people who are trapped in a farmhouse that is surrounded by carnivorous walking corpses. It is revailed that the corpses were brought back to life by radiation from a satelite falling to Earth from Venus. It is suspensful, scary, and the creepy. The special effects are dated. But it is muchhhhh better than any slasher i’ve ever seen. The farmhouse location was great. The fight scenes looked rather lame, but the fact that guns DID SOMETHING made it still more enjoyable. You will never guess the ending in a million years.

Gets better with age
Night of the Living Dead (1968) **** (out of 4) The first of Romero’s on going series has the dead returning to life looking for human flesh and find their victims in a small farm house. For my money this is the third greatest horror film ever made and I’d probably add that it’s the greatest ‘B’ movie ever made. I think the film is pretty damn near flawless and contains some of the greatest natural chills from any movie made. The soundtrack is great as is the sound effects but everything else is just as great. I think the cinematography really stands out and packs one hell of a punch by creating some wonderful claustrophobic scenes. The cinematography really narrows everything down and shows how small this farm house is and in my opinion it really puts you inside the house and you can feel yourself choking as their world gets smaller and smaller as the zombies get closer. The performances have taken a beating over the years but I think they’re great as well. I think all the characters have a reason or purpose for the film and I think the actors really bring it out in them. Duane Jones really stands out as Ben as he brings a certain safe nature to the movie. When all hell starts to break loose and Ben first shows up on the scene, he does so in a way that you can feel protected. Judith O’Dea is also great at showing the paranoia of her character. I also think the film remains quite creepy even after all the viewings I’ve had throughout the years. When the zombies finally crash threw the door you can help but feel threatened by them. The screaming of Barbara, Ben trying to board the place back up and the frantic editing really packs a punch. I also think the little girl stabbing her mother is one of the most haunting shots in film history. The use of shadows and the way the scene is edited makes it unforgettable.
