Movie Reviews of Night of the Living Dead (Color / Black &White)
Movie Review: Best Version I have Seen
Summary: 5 Stars
I have only owned about 2 or 3 versions of this film and I have to say this is probably the best. For the price you really cant go wrong with both versions the black and white and color. Its not like its in high definition or anything but the quality is good enough for me to say its almost the best I have seen for an older version of this. Not much more can be said about Night of The Living Dead but it is the all time classic zombie movie that paved the way for so much garbage zombie films and the good ones. No doubt in my mind that a company is trying to make more money off a good movie with a new version but at least this one is worth it. Special features are rather disappointing but I think it makes up for it by the commentary track. Odds are if you have never seen this movie and this is your 1st than you might be disappointed by the claustrophobia of the whole film except the beginning but for me I enjoyed that aspect of being in one place. The zombies move about the pace of a turtle so I think it would be fun to play with these zombies over the current run after you aggressive type. You might find yourself wondering why anyone is scared of them except for they want to eat you. I have to say though that a slower pace and claustrophobia is a good feeling in a movie for me especially a zombie movie. Overall in my opinion this is still the definitive zombie movie (not so much the dvd) for me.
Summary of Night of the Living Dead (Color / Black &White)
This is one of the true cult classics and one of the scariest movies of all time. The dead are walking and hunger for human flesh. A group of panicked survivors are barricaded in a deserted farmhouse while the army of flesh eating zombies hovers outside their door. This over-the-top disk includes a restored original black and white version, and a color version that will thrill the horror film fan and horrify the film purist. We've added a 5.1 surround sound mix, and bonus features including a hilarious audio commentary by Mike Nelson of Mystery Science Theater 3000.We can hardly imagine how shocking this film was when it first broke into the film scene in 1968. There's never been anything quite like it again, though there have been numerous pale imitations. Part of the terror lies in the fact that it is shot in such a raw and unadorned fashion that it feels like a home movie, and is all the more authentic because of that. It draws us into its world gradually, content to establish a merely spooky atmosphere before leading us through a horrifically logical progression that we hardly could have anticipated. The story is simple: Radiation from a fallen satellite has caused the dead to walk, and hunger for human flesh. Once bitten, you become one of them. And the only way to kill one is by a shot or blow to the head. We follow a group holed up in a small farmhouse who are trying to fend off the inevitable onslaught of the dead. The tension between the members of this unstable, makeshift community drives the film. Night of the Living Dead establishes savagery as a necessary condition of life. Marked by fatality and a grim humor, the film gnaws through to the bone, then proceeds on to the marrow. --Jim Gay
