Night of the Living Dead Boys and Ghouls
-
- TV & Film
George Romero and a small group of aspiring filmmakers spent their summer making a horror movie about flesh-eating ghouls and the ordinary people trying to fend them off. That movie became “Night of the Living Dead” and it created a new kind of horror genre and a new kind of movie monster… THE ZOMBIE.
Listen in as the Boys and Ghouls duo discuss how this landmark movie came to be. You’ll GASP as we discuss what a low budget movie this was. You’ll THRILL as we examine the casting of an African American in the lead of a horror movie in racially tumultuous 1967. And SHUDDER as we let you know just what it was the zombies were really eating.
Enjoy!
