Night of the Living Dead (1968)

Seven terrorized survivors. One isolated farmhouse. And one endless horde of the living dead. It's time to confront the patient zero of modern zombie film, Night of the Living Dead (1968)! In addition to guns, torches, and survival supplies, John, Andy, and Brad are bringing all the knowledge of zombie cinema they've gained from watching four decades of zombie movies. What did this masterpiece invent? What did it draw from previous films? And will all that accumulated zombie trivia help John, Andy, and Brad survive the night?Show Notes:US Theatrical Release Date: October 4, 1968AFI Catalog EntryDid George Romero Ever Think Pittsburgh was Scary?The Empire Film Podcast with George RomeroGeorge Romero's obituaryMister Rogers Gets a Tonsillectomy - Directed by George RomeroDuane Jones' obituaryPerspective: An Appreciation of Duane Jones | University of PittsburghMarilyn Eastman Dies: ‘Night of the Living Dead’ Actress & Producer Was 87Birth of the Living Dead (2013 documentary)The Top Ten Best Low Budget Horror Movies of All TimeInterview Magazine, 1969 Night of the Living Dead ReviewCahiers du cinema, 1970 Night of the Living Dead ReviewVariety, October 15, 1968.
