Halloween Countdown: They’re Coming to Get You, Barbara!
I’m keeping the vintage theme going today with an amazing series of screenshots put together by My Monster Memories.
I might make a lot of enemies by saying this, but I’m rather tired of zombies (I even stopped watching The Walking Dead!). However, the original Night of the Living Dead is a classic film. Barbara certainly has her melodramatic moments, and the following images display a single brief emotional meltdown (as she recounts how she and her brother were attacked by zombies).
I want to make a flip book out of these. Scrolling through, I’m enjoying this old favorite in a brand new way!
Excellent job, My Monster Memories!

I too am VERY tired of the whole Zombie thing–dare I say more so than the vampire sects that ruined the Goth scene in NYC 15 years ago. Have not resumed Walking Dead, but watched it for the post-disaster survival storyline. Night of the Living Dead, and Romero in general, is another story, however.
Watched NOTLD a week or two ago, in a clean, crisp DVD from an original negative that gave a whole new viewing delight to this old grufti. I think it is an amazing film, and as pivotal to the Horror Genre as Psycho had been.

Agreed!

Heck, I do that every time I spend too much time with my brother! Have to rewatch. Looks fun!

Just to note: anyone who has a sibling named Barbara who has NOT overused this catch phrase…you’re doing it wrong.

My sister Barbara is too stodgy to let me pester her with it–but I agree I must have been doing it wrong.

Well, the point is…you thought to do it. 🙂

Wow. She’s got every single “NOOOOoooo!” and “ALAS!” and “! feel so cold…” in quick succession. That can’t be easy!
