Review of The Night of the Living Dead: A Short Review of This Classic Horror Film
My mom warned me repeatedly befor eit began to play on one of my movie channels. "I couldn't sleep for weeks!" "It's too scary" "You'll regret this..." she warned. But I was determined to go forth with my plans. It began and from the beginning, I knew that it's reputation was exxagerated by my mother.
Now, I understand that this film was made a long time ago, before crazy horrifying special effects and horrific directing style, but still, I think that they could've pushed it a little farther. If you are considering renting this movie, do. Just so you can say you saw it at least. I think everyone should see this movie because I think it set the basis for all undead horde movies no matter how recent.
]Now, don't get me wrong. It was a fairly scary film. It kept me alert the rest of the night, and did get me in the halloween spirit. All I'm saying is that don't get scared off because of hype surrounding it. I was skeptical to see it because I'm terrified of zombie films. They keep me up and give me nightmares and I'd rather just steer clear of them. And my mom's constant commenting on the horro that was installed into her after seeing it didn't help.
But I forced myself to watch the whole thing and I would reccomend it to people who know for a FACT that they won't get scared. Because I thought that I wouldn't be frightned at all by the movie Shaun of the Dead, but I was scared immensely and it traumatized my brain which had not been exposed to horror flics before that. So don't just say, I think I won't be scared. You should KNOW that you won't be scared.
I'm actually glad that it wasn't as bad as I thought because I'd rather sleep once or twice in the next month.
Now let's discuss why it wasn't as bad as I thought.
