Rating:  - Dead still walkin'
I love Tom Savini's remake. I like how this time Barbara is a much stronger character than a bumbling freakout in the original. This time played by Patricia Tallman (professional stuntwoman). The effects and acting are wonderful. In no way is this better than the original. However, it is a nice facelift.
Rating: - The Night That Started It All!!
This has to be the best REMAKE ever it surpasses any other...even the 2004 version of Dawn Of The Dead which i loved but never full accepted it as a proper remake rather it was more of an interesting semi-creepy zombie flick. I grew up on the originals...call me old fashioned but i think we need to respect where we came from and the same goes for horror movies. Tom's version of Night Of The Living Dead stays very,very,very true to the original and still kicks it up a HUGE notch to make it more frightening than the 68' version. When it was first mentioned in Fangoria many many years ago that there was gonna be a "new" remake of night of the living dead i was skeptical but when i read Tom Savini was the director i was assured deep in my heart that it's gonna a be great film no matter what and nearly 20years later it still is in my top ten horror/zombie movies of all time. I can't imagine anyone who loves horror who hasn't seen this at least once it's a movie that gets better and better the more times you watch it...and if your the few unprivileged people who haven't seen it for what ever reason i strongly recommend it.
Rating: - Pay attention Hollywood, If you're going to continue to churn out remake after remake, THIS is how you do it.
This movie shatters the remake mold.
Pay attention Hollywood, If you're going to continue to churn out remake after remake, THIS is how you do it. Excellent cast, direction(by tom savini.) excellent special FX.
If you're a fan of the George Romero "Of the Dead" series, Add this disc to your collection.
8/10
Rating:  - Obsolete
Obsolete remake, indeed. From the very beginning this film is a bad joke. The terrible non-stop screaming from the women makes you want to see them become zombie-food as fast as possible. Barbara's brother in this film is an i.d.i.o.t., blablaing his text down already in the arriving-scene inside the car. George must have thought: Well, let's have Tom bullfrogging his ego with a remake, it will always be... this. I don't wanna be mean to Mr. Savini, I really appreciate his work, his acting in some films too, but this here: Was a mistake. Or, I miss the point and this was meant as a comedy, but nevertheless, I say it doesn't work.
Rating: - One Of The Best Zombie Movies Ever, And Essential Horror
The 1990 version of the immortal "Night Of The Living Dead" tale - the newly dead rise from the graves and a group of strangers seeks safety by barricading themselves in a farmhouse that is quickly beseiged - is in many ways actually even better than its legendary predecessor. Certain elements from the original are admittedly truncated - the 'news-reel' footage from the first in which a tv set in the farm house plays out reports across the country as the characters inside go about making preparations - is virtually absent, for example. But that was one of the better parts of the first NotLD, and shortening the parts that were already perfect, and building up other aspects that weren't as developed the first time around, may have been wise. The character of Barbara is a good example of this. One of the pair of siblings (in both versions) that first encounters a zombie in the graveyard, in the first movie the character had little to do once inside the farmhouse; the male characters took over the focus of the movie. In this remake the character (played by Patricia Tallman) becomes one of the two leading figures of the survivors, along with Ben (Tony Todd). With the other characters, the 1968 original set them up very well with differing reactions to the situation and differing personalities; in the 1990 remake those same characters are expanded on and used to even greater effect.
The action this time is ratcheted up, with a more violent, intense and gory assault by the dead; ... Read More
