"This is horror at its most probing, subversive and socially aware, with a truly harrowing ending that reveals the dangers of misdirected fear and prejudice."
Eye for Film
Anton Bitel

"A doozie."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
"Seldom have so many pundit parses and public praises owed so much to so little as in the case of the career-launching 'Night of the Living Dead.'"

4/4
"There's a brute force in
Night of the Living Dead
that catches one in the throat."
Slant Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
4/4
"I can't underrate its intangible ability to bypass my rationale and lunge straight at my subconscious. When it's really cooking, it's the scariest film I’ve ever seen."

"It’s the anticipation of horrible scenarios that makes the film work so well."
Old School Reviews
John A. Nesbit
5/5
"Subtext and allegory not your thing? Fine, watch the movie as an intense, nightmarish, claustrophobic exercise in apocalyptic horror. The film works either way."
Mike Bracken's Horror Films
Mike Bracken
"This little seat-of-the-pants regional production chewed up and spit out taboos like raw meat in a feral feeding frenzy."
Seanax.com
Sean Axmaker
"George Romero set a new standard for horror with this low-budget opus."
Cinefantastique
Steve Biodrowski
4/4
"A tightly-edited, claustrophobically-framed horror film that retains, along with its relevance, its ability to startle and appall."
