As this episode drops it's the 50th anniversary of one of the most influential and important horror films of all time, director George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead. The creepy classic not only led the late Mr. Romero to sequelize himself over the next several decades with Dawn of the Dead, Day of the Dead, and more, but everything from The Walking Dead to Shaun of the Dead to 28 Days Later owes some piece of its success to what Romero and writer John Russo managed to pull off with no budget, no stars, no extended locations, and no color. Here to help me mark five decades of this seminal experience is Dr. Arnold T. Blumberg, author of the new book JOURNEY OF THE LIVING DEAD: A Tribute to Fifty Years of Flesh Eaters. Listen in as we delve into the original film, its sequels, and everything else that came in its wake! As always, you can hear it at the embed below, or subscribe via iTunes, Stitcher Radio, or TuneIn Radio.
