Cult Classics with Chris - Ep. 7 - John A. Russo (Night of the Living Dead [1968])

from Classic American Movies · host Christopher Kelly

John A. Russo is one of the most iconic names in horror. Back in the 60's with George A. Romero, he co-created one of the most iconic horror films of all time, "Night of the Living Dead." Together, John and George re-defined the zombie genre, inspiring millions of people worldwide and frightening audiences for generations. This is a personal favorite of mine, as I have loved "Night" since I was a small child, watching it every Saturday from a VHS purchased for $2.50. After listening, please check out his latest work, "My Uncle John is a Zombie!" and on YouTube, "Eve of Destruction 2020."
