Quick Hit

Night of the Living Dead still feels like civilization tearing open on camera. Mean, lean, and politically radioactive.

Full Take

Romero’s filmmaking is stripped to essentials, which is exactly why it hits so hard. The siege structure is clean, the violence is blunt, and the ending still leaves a bruise. This is not just zombie canon; it is horror canon. ELITE.
