Night of the Living Dead (1968)








Every year, Johnny and Barbra visit their deceased father's grave in a remote area of Pennsylvania. But during their latest visit, something goes horribly wrong. When Barbra becomes uneasy with their surroundings, Johnny mockingly declares that the living dead will appear. His words prove to be true when a zombie kills Johnny and chases Barbra. She runs to an empty farmhouse, where she meets Ben, a brave young man, who offers to protect her. Soon, other people who are also being attacked by zombies join them, some looking out only for themselves and others working together to fight off the invasion.
