Send us Fan MailIt's Spring time at Speaking Cinema and we all know what that means. That's right. It's another theme month. Welcome heathens and heretics to the inaugural Zombeaster. This month we'll be covering three zombie classics from some of cinema's most celebrated filmmakers. And what better way to kick off an ode to the zombie film than covering the granddaddy of them all; George A. Romero's 'Night of the Living Dead'. What happens when a group of ragtag filmmakers from Pittsburgh get their hands on some money and gear? Well, you get a film that feels just as relevant today as it did nearly 60 years ago. Topics include the incredible performance of Duane Jones, the film's deep social commentary (even if it isn't what the filmmakers intended) and why this film still holds up after all these years. So kick back and let the Zombeaster season into your hearts. This is George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead!Like the episode?
