Deepen your appreciation of this benchmark in horror cinema with the <em>Night of the Living Dead<\/em> Ultimate Guide magazine, a full-colour luxury guide that evokes the spirit of the brochure you might have bought at the cinema in 1968, but brought right up to date with the finest production values and high-quality printing.

The <em>Night of the Living Dead<\/em> Ultimate Guide is printed in full colour throughout, a print process that also extends to the meticulously restored stills. Unlike cheaper newspaper-style printing, we use full-colour production which means even black and white stills have depth and detail rather than looking flat and washed out &#8211; and in a movie like this, the power of light and shadow is a crucial part of the atmosphere. The end result is that the <em>Night of the Living Dead<\/em> Ultimate Guide is a fittingly atmospheric tribute to the movie itself, with each turn of the page revealing new details and insight.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-03.jpg\" alt=\"Night of the Living Dead 1968 Ultimate Guide\" width=\"500\" height=\"353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-03.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-03-275x194.jpg 275w, https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-03-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to production information about the movie itself, this <em>Night of the Living Dead<\/em> magazine guide also features a wealth of information about the people who made it happen. A range of biographies look at the personal and professional lives of the cast and crew, giving you a clearer view of the many gifted individuals whose collective effort changed the course of horror cinema. From leads Duane Jones and Judith O\u2019Dea, through to supporting cast members like Judith Ridley and Bill Hinzman, you might be surprised at what this group of performers achieved elsewhere. We also look at the crew, from director Romero\u2019s revered pedigree in the horror genre to screenwriter John Russo, producer Russell Streiner and other members of the macabre family that created this piece of movie magic.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43751\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-04.jpg\" alt=\"Night of the Living Dead 1968 Ultimate Guide\" width=\"500\" height=\"353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-04.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-04-275x194.jpg 275w, https:\/\/www.classic-monsters.com\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Inline-04-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>How much longer do we have to hang around this cemetery?
