Editorial Review - Amazon.com essential video

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

There's Always A Beginning

A Customer Review by J-Train
This is the movie that started it all. If you love horror movies, and more specifically, if you love zombie movies you owe a lot of your enjoyment to this film. Shocking for it's time and still holds up. What is most important about this film is that it gave director and creator George Romero a path to make the movies he wanted to make. For that alone it deserves immense respect as one of the all time classic films. 5 stars because I can't give 5 million stars.

A Customer Review by cdub
If you are looking for an interesting, original horror movie this is the one for you. This is not your typical movie at all.

There are no stars and Duane Jones (Ben) is the only substantial character (other than catatonic Barbara played by Judith O'Dea). It was shot on a shoestring budget (estimated at a little over $100,000) around Pittsburgh, PA.

The movie starts swiftly and emerges the audience without any warning into a nightmarish world. The quick pace of the film makes it easy to watch, and the intensity of it all--gripping the edge of your seat to see what happens next--totally captivates.

This movie is truly enjoyable. In the original black and white, it is an eerie film, not gory or gruesome. It is terrifying.

This edition also comes with the colorized version, which is not bad, but just strange (some colors are so vibrant and intense it shifts the mood of the scene, meanwhile other colors are paled or grayed and actually enhance the feeling of the scene). Watch it in black and white first, and then try it in color.

Either way, this film is a must see for horror fans.

One of my personal favorites!
