In the vast majority of cases where an independent film making crew undertakes the daunting task of assembling a feature length film, it is my belief that they are looking past the fact that budgetary limitations will hamper their ability to bring their visions to life on screen in as full a way as they'd like. Often times the results come off as comical or inept, despite the earnestness of the creators desire to tell the best story they can. Very rarely does the opposite happen, where the limitations empower a film densely packed with such timeless beauty and emotional impact as Night Of The Living Dead.
While not every sequence will work to the sensibilities of a modern audience, Night contains the emotional impact and philosophical themes that have resonated with society over it's 50 year life that it has led to an explosion of Zombie relevance in modern culture in a way that nobody could have predicted, making an impact on humanity in ways similar to the novels of Frankenstein and Dracula had in the century preceding cinema. That's something very special indeed.
