Night of the Living Dead
A group of people try to survive an attack of bloodthirsty zombies while trapped in a rural Pennsylvania farmhouse. Although not the first zombie film, Night of the Living Dead is the progenitor of the contemporary "zombie apocalypse" horror film, and it greatly influenced the modern pop-culture zombie archetype.
Night of the Living Dead (1968), directed by George A. Romero, Criterio 4k remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including original theatrical mono, two commentary tracks, and English SDH subtitles.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063350/
Video encoded in two-pass 10 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image.
English SDH subtitles OCRed, proofed and corrected.
Note : There's probably no one on earth who hasn't heard of this film, George A. Romero's genre-defining debut, which introduced the world to a new class of shambling ghouls, as well as Romero's searing social criticism. It had been a while since I saw it, and I have to say, it still definitely holds up, even with the slightly uneven pacing, probably because of the naturalistic acting, spliced-in news footage, and stark black and white cinematography, it feels dangerously close to reality. The acting is mostly very solid, and the ending managed to be shockingly grim, even more than fifty years after it was made. Obviously a must for everyone interested in horror, or cinema in general.
Barbra and her brother Johnny drive to a rural cemetery to visit their father's grave, but when Johnny starts teasing Barbra about her fear of the graveyard, telling her a man in the distance is coming to get her, they're surprised to be attacked by the man, seemingly without motivation. Barbra escapes to a nearby farmhouse, where she runs into Ben, who's escaped from a number of similar brainlessly violent people at a local diner. It turns out several more people are barricaded in the farmhouse basement, and as the group finds themselves under siege from the increasing number of ghouls outside, and watch new broadcasts about waves of unexplained violence possibly caused by radiation from a space probe that exploded in the Earth's atmosphere, tensions mount, escape attempts become increasingly desperate, and it all builds to a grim, downbeat climax.
This Criterion 4k remaster is pretty perfect, and with this high-bitrate encode, I think I've managed to almost flawlessly preserve it. Original mono sounds crisp, commentary tracks are good, subtitles fine, all you would want, really.
