One of the greatest horror movies of all time. Seen it countless times but never on the big screen. Every zombie movie owes a debt of gratitude to George Romero's masterpiece

I have never seen this movie with theater sound. The orchestration took this to another level I have not experience with this film before

A sheer pleasure to watch on the big screen. I have a new respect for the acting in this movie, the nuances of the performances and the ironies pop all the more.

Film looked great, so much fun seeing it on the big screen. In 1968 the sheer terror of this film must have been overwhelming.

The 4K restoration is wonderful. I've never seen the film look better.

Loved seeing it at the theater!!! Terrific restoration. I only saw it on TV a very long time ago, and there was so much that I had missed or didn’t remember.

There is horror before NOLD and then there is horror after NOLD. We live in the latter and thank you George Romero and crew for making that happen.

Metacritic

100

This is the great American nightmare, in which neither families, friends, neighbors, nor lovers can save you, and no matter what you try and no matter where you go, it won’t stop until you do. There is nothing more terrifying than that.

The movie had stopped being delightfully scary about halfway through, and had become unexpectedly terrifying. There was a little girl across the aisle from me, maybe nine years old, who was sitting very still in her seat and crying.

Night of the Living Dead is a grainy little movie acted by what appear to be nonprofessional actors, who are besieged in a farm house by some other nonprofessional actors who stagger around, stiff-legged, pretending to be flesh-eating ghouls.
