31 Posts Of Halloween: Night Of The Living Dead


Night Of The Living Dead, is the classic zombie film, that everyone that likes zombie flicks should watch at least once!

So, this movie follows a group of people in a house as they try to survive the zombie hoard. The rules for the zombies in this film are different than the ones in most other zombie films today. And to be honest, I absolutely love how this movie portrays zombies!
They are smart enough to use some tools, but they have a fear of fire. They aren't completely mindless, but just dumb enough to be outsmarted, so long as there aren't to many of them.
Night Of The Living Dead came out in 1968, and had a budget of $114,000.00 or in today's dollars, $842,483.40. For film, being under a million in modern terms is cheap indie film budget, and this movie pulls it off perfectly with what it has to work with. It really is an impressive film given the time that it was made in.
George A. Romero, rest in piece, 1940 - 2017, was one of the master of horror and surmounted his name in the canon of legends of horror with this film. This was the first film that I saw of his, and now I want to watch more. The man was a legend.
I strongly recommend watching Night Of The Living dead this October. It would be perfect to watch on Halloween if you're looking to see a classic! I'm going to end this review with one of my now new favorite quotes, "They're coming to get you, Barbara!"


final score: 4/5

The Batman Movie Review

The Batman Movie Review A Solid Noir Film I went and saw The Batman the other day with one of my buddies and I must say, we really enjoyed it. Granted I don't think this movie is for everyone. The Batman follows Batman (Robert Pattinson) during his second year of crime fighting. When the mayor of Gotham is killed by The Riddler (Paul Dano), it is up to Batman with the help of James Gordon (Jeffery Wright), and Selina Kyle (Zoë Kravitz) to stop him. From a visual point of view, The Batman is gorgeous. Every frame is a painting. The acting is solid, the plot is solid. The musical score is outstanding. I personally loved the film, but there are some things in it that could off-set some Batman fans. I typically get into the acting first, but like you've probably already heard many reviewers say before, the city is a character in this film. Gotham feels real, grounded, and certainly not a place you'd want to visit. Corruption and crime run rampant at every level of society. The ...
