The Brock’s Horror Film Pick #5: Night of the Living Dead (the 1968 original)

The Zombie genre maybe pretty huge in today’s entertainment industry. Zombies have taken over TV with shows like “Walking Dead”, and all sorts of zombie, Hollywood movies. Even George A. Romero is still making zombie flicks to this day. While there is all that, nothing will top the original “Night of the Living Dead”, which is another film I’ll never get tired of watching. This film is the perfect zombie film. I’m pretty sure many kids of today’s generation haven’t even seen it. This is a true zombie film here. Another perfect film to watch around Halloween season. Forget the “Walking Dead” kids, “Night of the Living Dead” is the real deal!

They’re coming to get you, Barbara!

Another horror film remake. Come on Hollywood! Come up with some original horror films already! I’m sick of films being adapted from books and remakes from other films, come up with an original story for once.
