Rating: Summary: A COMPLETE ABOMINATION! Review: First off, I absolutely LOVE Night Of The Living Dead! It is a classic. Unfortunately, I just had the bad luck of seeing the 30th Anniversary Edition of Night Of The Living Dead on Cinemax and was completely appalled at... this classic film [edition]. Fortunately, all I wasted was a few minutes... I honestly had to check the TV guide to make sure I was on the right channel...The second thing that shook me was... [the] music score that completely detracted from the eerie feeling that the original film so brilliantly conveyed. I will be honest; I couldn't even sit through this...I am just glad to see that I am not alone in my... [disappointment]...
Rating: Summary: YOU MUST BE JOKING BARBARA!!! Review: I LOVE ZOMBIE FILMS, BUT THIS 30th ANNIVERSARY EDITION IS AWFUL. IN ALL OF FILM HISTORY, THE BALD HEADED PREACHER TAKES THE CAKE AS THE MOST ANNOYING ACTOR I HAVE EVER SEEN. WATCH THE ORIGINAL BUT LEAVE THIS SAD PIECE OF WORK IN THE BASEMENT. NUFF SAID.
Rating: Summary: Still a Classic after all these years !!! Review: I loved this movie so so so much !! And i still do ! its has a great script to it and is even a little scary. I like the The Return Of The Living Dead the best but this movie is the 2nd best. it looks pretty good in black in white. The Music is SO GREAT and scary. BUY THIS MOVIE WHILE YOU CAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Stay clear of this one. Review: The following review refers to the 30th anniversary edition. I was expecting a lot from this edition, but after watching it I was very disappointed. In my opinion, the added footage doesn't really add anything to the movie. If anything, it detracts from it. The new music score is also very disappointing. Loud, overbearing, and totally out of place in this film. And I won't even go into how terrible the acting is in the new scenes. If you have never seen night of the living dead, I definitely don't recommend this version for your first viewing. Actually, I don't recommend this version at all. Stick to the original.
Rating: Summary: the greatest american horror movie Review: Who is the is this Max Fulton moron? Please tell me, Max. What horror movies do you consider good? I have to know. Because, if you knew anything about film, let alone the horror genre, you would be praising NIGHT.... as the touchstone modern horror film. Your disregard and utter lack of knowledge of this movie is an embarrasment to horror fans and anyone serious about movies. You haven't a clue, and I for one, feel sorry for you.
Rating: Summary: Cult classic, why? Review: This is not a good movie. It is not scary and it is not well made. It is bad. Not bad enough to be entertaining, like Ragdoll, just boringly bad. The only part that was even a tad creepy was the very end, and I mean the credits.
Rating: Summary: the movie was ok...... Review: i first saw the movie on tv and i was all "sweet a zombie movie" it said the movie got 4 stars. it was in black and white and there wasent really music in it. it wasent scary. the acting was pretty good and the ending was a little weird.
Rating: Summary: WORST mistake you'll ever make if you buy this DVD!!! Review: I bought this DVD thinking that it would be top-notch and handled with a lot of class since it was touted as a 30th Anniversary Limited Edition. Boy was I wrong. The first thing I noticed when I slipped the disc in was a new musical score that replaces the orginal. This score is so overbearing that it completely detracts from the images on the screen. It is an ABOMINATION! I removed the disc after five minutes and immediately placed it up for auction. Thank God I found a willing buyer. By far the best version on DVD is the Elite Entertainment DVD. It should be considered the definitive version of the film on DVD. There's a reason why the Elite version is frequently on backorder and the Anchor Bay 30th Anniversary edition is always in stock...the Anchor Bay version is pathetic! If I could have given it ZERO stars, I would have! Run...run as far away from this Anchor Bay DVD as fast as you can. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Rating: Summary: I got ripped off, but you don't have to be Review: DO NOT for any reason buy the Anchor Bay 30th anniversary DVD of Night Of The Living Dead! The makers have trashed it completly.They added new footage (shot in '98, by the way)and a new Halloween-like music score.Both of which add nothing to what is a classic better left alone.To be honest, I coudn't even sit through more than 10 mins.of this new version, or the commentary by 4 people I wont name but should be ashamed of themselves.There is no explanation for why they felt the need to change the film in any way.I figured if they didn't discuss it while the footage was playing they wouldn't so I gave up.Oh yeah the disc also has a so called 1998 90 minute edit, which is actually the original version, but with the annoying new score.Again, piontless.I got ripped off 20 bucks,and I would feel bad trying to pawn it off on someone else,so I'm trashing it and buying the Elite Entertainment DVD,the one it turns out I wanted in first place Buy it as well and dont let this happen to you.
Rating: Summary: IT'S SO BORING! Review: The Night Of The Living Dead is a really boring, low-budget, black and white zombie film. The acting is pretty hollow and there are no real scary parts. Every time you'd think the film would be scary - it's not, becuase it's in black and white and most of the "scary parts" take place in the nighttime so it's really hard to see any details. I'd give it 1 star if it wasn't for that great music at the end!
