White Zombie (1932), The Last Man on Earth (1964) and Night of the Living Dead (1968)

ALL MOVIES SPOILED

In this film block, Jeremy and Brian discuss how the zombie evolved into the movie monster we know and love today. From the 1600’s in Haiti to the 1930’s in the States to the monster it became in the 1980’s, the zombie had a long journey. This is the first rung on the evolutionary ladder for this pop culture icon.

All of these movies are in the public domain, so we’ve uploaded high-quality versions of them on our YouTube channel.
