horror classic

This low budget film by George A Romero is a classic in its own right. What you will admire about this film is that the plot is relatively simple, it’s nicely shot thanks to Romero’s directing and film-making and the film possesses a very talented set of actors which enhances the film’s credibility. This is a must see film as it continually grabs your attention from the very beginning to the very end. It has everything that you come to expect from a horror movie – its creepy and scary and given the era that it was filmed in (the 60s), the film is certainly unique. Unlike the cheap, ineffective and recent horror movies out there, this film doesn’t really focus on the blood and guts gore but actually on the realistic depiction of horror – showing enough to the audience to disturb us but not enough at the same time to lose focus or touch with the plot and the characters.
