If you'll look, you'll find that the naked zombie is wearing a tag on her wrist, the implication being that she has risen from the morgue. The tag is on her wrist instead of her toe because you wouldn't see it at all if it were on her foot.
I have to say that the shotgun damaged cemetery sign probably wasn't filmed deliberately. As someone who has lived and traveled throughout rural parts of the United States for the last fifty years, shot-gun pitted road signs used to be ubiquitous in the pre-1990's era. In fact back in 1968 I imagine it would have been difficult to find a road sign not wrecked by gunfire in a place like Evans City Pennsylvania. Strangely, this phenomenon has all but disappeared over the past 30 years. It may be due to a change in culture but I imagine it's more likely due to the high cost of ammunition these days.
Its cause people all have cell phones now so the cops will be called. They can't drive-by shoot them anymore without someone immediately (and likely) turning them in/recording them. Everyone's a cop now.
.. I get the feeling that Johnny WASNT eaten, Only knocked-out - And when he awoke at night DESPERATELY seeking-out his sister or the only-source of light out there in that countryside (The House) He ran RIGHT into that swarm of undead, Disoriented. Papa-zombie noticed him (Which is why he was 'Gone; for a while) Chased him down with Johhny trying so-hard to get INTO that house, But ultimately they bit him and turned him into one of them. Theres no way Johnny the zombie would be able to FIND his way there like the other zombies, Unless he had already ran-there while alive. .. OR his sister was seeing his angry ghost near the end..
Who say's it was simply 'Damaged..?' This is a cemetary where the undead came back to life. Those 'Markings' kind of look like blood. And they mightve been the result of someone trying to 'End' their escaped illegal-experiments in that cemetary, Like the remake hinted-at. We dont really know how the infection started after all..
I live in northern MD near PA and if you go into a backwoods area a lot of signs have bullet holes in them, you don't see it as often today but back in the 80's early 90's almost every sign in backwoods areas of Pennsylvania had at least one bullet hole in them.
Father figures in Romero's movies are either cruel or inept . . . makes you wonder if this is a statement George is making that indicates his childhood experience.
2:14 I though of that as a foreshadowing of what was to happen to Johnny. He was pretending to be a ghoul and scare Barbra and he actually became one and stunned her so much so that she stopped fighting and became over run by the living dead.
It seems like each movie of the three has a different zombie allegory. In Dawn of the Dead, it's seems clear that the dead mindlessly walking around the mall is a comment on the state of the mainstream in the 70's USA.
SPOILER! Johnny is revealed to save Barbra's life in George Romero's amazing comic book series Empire of the Dead. Barbra has a flash back of the ending of Night of the living dead were she tells someone that she was dragged out of the house and guided away from the zombie horde by her undead brother.
I’m not 100% sure but in the 30th anniversary version with new filmed scenes they say the “dad” zombie was a child killer and you see him being put in the coffin.
I did too now that you mention it. They were some kind of weird bacteria zombies and my grandmother was one and was trying to kill me but for some reason my legs were cramping and I couldn’t outrun her and since I didn’t want to get eaten I actually forced myself to wake up to get out of the dream.
I was thinking about the graveyard zombie not eating Johnnie because he is already dead. However, later when the truck explodes at the petrol pump, the zombies tuck into the barbequed corpses with lip-smacking relish. Just a wee thought.
I got racial connections from the "Animalistic" part. It talks about how these people are "Animals" while the blk man is going through someone else's property. Almost as if the report is about the blk race and these are the views of what America thinks at the time since it's said over the radio the main source of American culture at that given time.
The reason why zombies eat humans is explained in the Return of the Living Dead franchise; they need brains to dull the pain of their own bodies rotting. I think that was the franchise that established the "BRAINS!" cliche. Of course, those zombies where capable of planning, coordination, and language. This, to me, always set up zombies less as an allegory for animal behavior and more an allegory for addict behavior. An addict, depending on their drug of choice, experiences discomfort or pain when in withdrawal and will do just about anything to get it. They can be surprisingly clever when it comes to getting their next fix. Lastly we even describe people in extreme addiction as being like zombies.
08:50, "What other creatures wear clothes; I can't think of any?" Clearly you've never met my dog, who gets dressed up by my missus at seemingly every occasion. Christmas, Easter, his birthday, my birthday, Fridays...
… they arnt wearing clothes bc for one they looked like they were being Autopsied or were gonna shower-or also bc back then it was shocking to have no clothes on so THATS why they didn’t have any on I bet
Im not big on zombie movies cause I kinda feel if you have seen one you've seen them all but I watched a movie called Cargo and it puts humanity back into a zombie and blew my mind I really recommend a watch I would like to hear what you think of it thanks
Last viewing I had was good. Second half felt weaker by comparison to first half, but whole movie is good overall. And yes, I suspect some interesting stuff going on. :)
First point and Rob Ager verifies he has never lived in the rural South of the U.S. I've seen Welcome to Our Town signs blasted to a worse state. More holes than sign. Edit: spelling of Rob's last name.
Hey Rob would you like a comeback in the horror genre with zombies from maybe based on the horrors of the human mind in cinema a lot of the modern zombie films I personally found quite generic, I guess I’m just sick of so many reboots and remakes and cashgrabs
Rob Ager yeah it would be great to see the zombies take on the role of the human prior to infection their mental state health and any chemical differences I don’t mind fast zombies but it be great to explore the impact of feral deranged animalistic zombies or dead pan unstoppable meat machines on your regular every day person in the masses especially the mentally ill, the games have done the genre better services
How come in every zombie movie the zombies are not skeletons. Seems to be a lot of people who have been put in the ground fairly recently. Forgive me if iv"e missed something explained in any of the movies.
You talked a lot about lack of concern for the dead and the anger of the father. Don't zombies representing the fact that we as a society don't respect our ancestors and what they have achieved? That we take it for granted?
When are u gonna figure out everything is a mirror of the Bible. This would have been so much better if u had understanding of the Bible. He raises and come back forever and the Bible is the digital code which this world replays forever
I didn't notice before: the flash/boom are assumed to be thunder, but the actor reacts as though it were a (nuclear?) explosion (radiation reanimates the dead).

@@NukeCaulfield It's a good hypothesis except the phenomenon stopped three decades ago, long before cell phones with cameras existed.

I always got serious supernatural vibes from this movie, but nobody I know takes these movies seriously enough to discuss them with me.
2:14 I though of that as a foreshadowing of what was to happen to Johnny. He was pretending to be a ghoul and scare Barbra and he actually became one and stunned her so much so that she stopped fighting and became over run by the living dead.

In Day of the Dead it’s the military, in Night, it’s a warning to the left to get their act together or else the right wingers will devour them.
Don’t know why you stopped uploading but your entire analysis series is very engaging
We know it's Johnny because of the riding gloves. Well, that and it's the same actor. ;)
Well white people look the same to me...

I had one of my reoccurring zombie dreams last night, kind of freaked me out a bit to watch this.
They’re coming to get you Barbara!!
I did too now that you mention it. They were some kind of weird bacteria zombies and my grandmother was one and was trying to kill me but for some reason my legs were cramping and I couldn’t outrun her and since I didn’t want to get eaten I actually forced myself to wake up to get out of the dream.
Had a bizarre dream of the film too last night... before I knew this video was up. Harry in a Mexican costume arguing with Uncle Ben.
It’s not a dream ... it’s a premonition
I was thinking about the graveyard zombie not eating Johnnie because he is already dead. However, later when the truck explodes at the petrol pump, the zombies tuck into the barbequed corpses with lip-smacking relish. Just a wee thought.
YAHHHH! New video. I was just thinking about the Dead series. Love ya Rob keep on keepin on. Rock on

Almost as if the report is about the blk race and these are the views of what America thinks at the time since it's said over the radio the main source of American culture at that given time.
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD ... no other, has really trumped this film, (and a grand soundtrack to boot.)
"IT'S FATHERS' DAY, BEDELIA, AND I WANT MY CAKE!!!" I still have the (pretty much intact) "Creepshow" promotional comicbook...
What a welcome surprise. I didn't realize you kept another RUclips account aside from Collative.

These are entirely different zombies. These zombies eat flesh and organs. The Return zombies eat brains and only brains to numb the pain.
@9:14 Ben also talks about plowing into a horde of zombies “like bugs.” Also zombies discern each other by smell, decaying meat has a noticeable odor.
Dead trilogy is one of the greatest, every film could be the best one.
I always thought the reason some were barely clothed or naked was because they woke up in the morgue

Bulletholes in road signs is common in the boonies. As well as crickets chirping and birds chirping early in the morning. The birds are annoying.
Love your reviews
Romero never intended for the radiation to be the cause
Great video. Appreciate your analysis.
"Do it for Johnny!!!" OOPS!!!, Wrong movie...
That caught me off guard 😂😂😂😂

I REALLY NEED YOU TO REVIEW TENET
Well done
Yes...cricketts...night...original idea...
The will is blind and lust darkens the intellect. Zombies have a blind lust for the living. Maybe some kind of correlation there?
Can you analysis the planet of the apes?
Hell yeah, an hour long deep analysis of Charlton Heston's gorgeous body...sign me up.

@@johndawhale3197 Steve Martin: "I couldn't f**k a gorilla." :)
what does "road sign dialogue" mean?. I viewed one of your video and dont get it fully
I've never thought about that, when have u ever seen a crapping zombie?
Zonbi asu (2011) (Toilet of the Dead) not a good bad, bad film. but there is a fair amount of crapping zombies, fair but cruel. fair but cruel.

My brain saw the hand at regular speed.
What the fuck finally!!! Thank you!!!
Hope you do Dawn and Day:) this trilogy was fantastic
Hermit crabs wear clothes
Can you please review more Prometheus because I wanna get a clue of about the caves
Hey Rob would you like a comeback in the horror genre with zombies from maybe based on the horrors of the human mind in cinema a lot of the modern zombie films I personally found quite generic, I guess I’m just sick of so many reboots and remakes and cashgrabs
I'd love one. Totally agree it's become a stale genre. Ooooh look we have a movie where zombies run fast !!!! Wow, very inspired.

Because skeletons don’t act.
You're forgetting the 'Brains! Brains! Brains!' badly-decomposed female corpse in 1985's 'Return Of The Living Dead'...
You talked a lot about lack of concern for the dead and the anger of the father. Don't zombies representing the fact that we as a society don't respect our ancestors and what they have achieved? That we take it for granted?
3:10 I have always thought zombies want living meat… another zombie is dead meat.
Do one on Dr. Frankenstein! He’s my favorite of the series
Once again, well done, Rob.
I'm perceptive, yet you always pick out things I've missed.
OMG.. ZILF. NO!!!!
Today's Zombies they have to wear masks.
@Finn MacCool
lol...
@Finn MacCool Haha, good one. :D
Covid joke, or Antifa joke?
Wear masks and do social distancing in public, you bunch of brainless zombies you.
Zombies movies now Suck
That zombie is their father??

Wtf I’m full volume and this is still quiet
Or pyramid

I didn't notice before: the flash/boom are assumed to be thunder, but the actor reacts as though it were a (nuclear?) explosion (radiation reanimates the dead).
Hey Rob can you review Zombieland that's a funny zombie movie Woody kills it.
Please do something on Italian horror movies. 😁
I would love to hear your take on "Ravenous" a highly underrated film.
