Seven Almost-Unknown Things about Night of the Living Dead
George A. Romero’s 1968 black-and-white masterpiece, The Night of the Living Dead, isn’t just another zombie movie. It’s the zombie movie. What we think of as a ‘zombie’ today would never have existed without it.
Is Fido an (unofficial) sequel to Night of the Living Dead?
There’s a little-known but well-worth-it movie from 2006 that might very well be a ‘true,’ if cock-eyed, sequel to George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead, the father of all zombie movies. But if you didn’t know, you just might miss it.

This Week We Talk About…
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
Geroge A. Romero started it all in 1968, with his micro-budget black-and-white horror movie about a bunch of strangers stuck in somebody else’s house on the first night of the first outbreak. More than 55 years later, it still holds up, and it remains the source of most of the tropes and ‘rules’ we think of when we think about zombies at all… even though the word ‘zombie’ is never used in the movie.
Brad and Sha re-watch the classic, share some of its secrets and try to take a fresh look at the first, the best, the only real Night … where it all began!
