    The casting of a black actor to play Ben was not planned out. He simply was the best actor who auditioned. But because of that happy accident, it gave the movie a whole other level of commentary. The Cooper's distrust of Ben for seemingly no reason would have been a plot hole if Ben had been white, but with a black actor, the reason they don't trust him is immediately understood by the audience without having to be stated. Because they are unconsciously racist. This one little aspect of the casting has had far-reaching affects on the horror genre and film as a whole that is still felt today.

This movie is most likely black and white because George A. Romero wanted to save money. I mean, The Wizard of Oz is in colour and it was released in 1939.

She was graces and laughed happily as I told her I had a huge crush on her when I was like 8 years old. Got a pic with her and everything. Tom Savini was there as well and was nice enough but I got the feeling he did not want to be there.

    It kinda annoys me how Barbara is always called 'useless'. And while she is, technically, I think people easily forget that she's in shock. The dead are walking the earth, her brother died in front of her (trying to save her no less, also they parted with her calling him ignorant so she might feel a bit guilty, too. Also, for a while, she believed he was alive and that she just left him out there to die before Ben literally smacks some sense into her), no help is guaranteed to arrive, she's found a partially eaten body; so not only are the dead walking, they're also eating people, and did I mention that dead people are walking? I like that she's portrayed as being in shock throughout the film, only really jumping to action when Helen is about to be grabbed by the zombies busting into the house and when her own life is in danger.
    Honestly, it's how a lot of people would react, were this situation ever to actually happen. Most of us would just be too scared to really move.

    Fun fact: The Walking Dead showed a Walker using a brick as a tool in the very second episode as a homage to the smarter zombies of this version. It's a nice homage but it also completely ruins the Walkers, like, this was when we were still pretty much being introduced to them and they showed us they knew how to use tools and then completely ignored that fact for the rest of the show, which really sucks from a storytelling perspective.

      Thomas TAM Actually it’s confirmed canon there in The Walking Dead the longer that the zombies have been around the dumber they get, so a freshly turned zombie will be smart and use tools and run, but a more decomposed and older zombie will not

      I remember when I saw that, really did kinda gonked up the idea of the Walkers. I like to think that maybe some of the Walkers still had some form of motorfunction and intelligence but after time past, they quickly got nastier, dumber, and much more slower.

    I love how RUclips shows an ad to try to get you to buy this movie when everybody knows it’s in the public domain and you can watch it for free, even on RUclips.

    I think Jaws is considered a horror/thriller movie so you should do kill count for Jaws if you consider it horror

      I wonder if he'll count jaws, considering in the past he doesn't count animal kills. But then again I've never watched jaws so idk if he dies or not

    People make fun of Barb for being useless, but shes pretty clearly disassociating after watching her brother get murdered followed by being assaulted by a living dead man.
