Yeah, no surprise, another post about Night of the Living Dead (1968) on the Blog from the Darkside. And many more will come, I reckon. Not much this go-around except a passing thought at about three in the morning. This film just has such a turn-up-at-any-time quality to it and always will. It just seems timeless. You see all those horror movies benefitting from it's public domain status, with it playing on the tube as some character has it on. I have bouts of insomnia, mentioned on the blog from time to time. This early Tuesday morning I happened to awaken to it when it was playing once again on some channel benefitting from it's public domain status. Mr. Cooper was eyeing Ben's gun, nervy about not being in the fucking cellar as his wife rolls her eyes with Barbra lost in her hysteria on the couch. It was leading to the disastrous gas explosion incident initiating the infamous feeding frenzy. In and out as I was, sleep coming and going, as a horror fan I realize just how iconic this film is. It will always be on... somewhere at some time.
