    When the police car was reversing from the oncoming horde, you can see person in passenger seat holding camera and red light flashing

    turns 35 today! Both funny and scary in equal measure. Romero and screenwriter Jon Russo shared a collaboration but parted ways since legally Russo had the rights to use "living dead" as opposed to "dead" each time Romero made a zombie movie. The zombies in this movie are from several different ones; the usual ones eat human flesh while the ones here feast on brains and actually talk. Pretty neat how they looked into the mindset of the undead and why they need to feast. It's got a great punk soundtrack to boot. Director Dan O' Bannon would at times be difficult to work with on set but the movie thankfully garnered enough money and cult followers to staying power. Still has great makeup effects, dark humor, and great gore.

    This is the one zombie movie that got to me as a kid. Can't be understated how effective that soundtrack was too. Some of the moments are absolutely hilarious, but the prospect of the events in this movie is terrifying. Also the settings used were really good as well. An all time favorite of mine.

    Can't believe this is only 3 min. 20 seconds. Really? This movie deserves a more in depth look at how fucking great this movie really is………..

    I absolutely adore this movie. My absolute favorite Zombie movie. Even George Romero’s own films can’t top this one. Wish the sequels were as good.

    I rewatch this movie every few years and I'm amazed as to how well it holds up. It is absolutely the best zombie movie hands down, mainly because there is a reason for everything and it's played out so realistically. This movie has everything, great characters, action, suspense, creepiness, story line and dark humor, not to mention great musical score. I love how it starts slow and progressively becomes unhinged into madness. A cinematic masterpiece.
