"They're coming to get you Barbara" ... in the beginning of the film Night of the Living Dead, this phrase is said mockingly, and yet, it still comes off creepy as hell. It wasn't technically the first film to feature zombies, but it was the first centered around a world where the dead rise to literally eat the living. With one small, low-budget black and white movie, George A. Romero created an entire genre that would be adored by zillions forever. Why are so many people fascinated by zombies? There are many reasons, but the notion that people who were once good, sentient humans with families and thoughts and dreams could turn into mindless beasts whose one primal goal is to eat living people is absolutely absurd (this is a good thing to an absurdist like myself), but also pretty scary. Not to mention cool as hell, in the right hands.
