Night of the Living Dead (1968)

Rated R | Showing Oct. 28 at 5:30 and 8 pm

A ragtag group of Pennsylvanians barricade themselves in an old farmhouse to remain safe from a horde of flesh-eating ghouls that are ravaging the East Coast of the United States.

Night of the Living Dead is tense, taut, and terrifying from its opening scenes all the way to its shocking and disturbing conclusion. The hungry undead rise from their graves to feed on the flesh of the living in this trailblazing zombie film. Director George Romero’s claustrophobic vision of a late-1960s America literally tearing itself apart rewrote the rules of the horror genre, combining gruesome gore with acute social commentary and quietly breaking ground by casting a Black actor (Duane Jones) in its lead role.

Romero was a Pittsburgh native and Carnegie Mellon University student. In 1999, the Library of Congress deemed Night of the Living Dead “culturally, historically and aesthetically significant” and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.

Celebrate spooky season with this cult classic on the biggest giant screen in Western Pennsylvania. Experience the film like never before and stop by the Miniature Railroad & Village® to see a miniature model of the infamous chapel located in Evans City on display.
