    Hell no. B movies are full of treasure, where the most subversive and sublimated ideas are expressed. As I once introduced a movie at a screening ‘if you think Oscar winning Green Book is better than Robocop or Night of the Living Dead you’re out of your goddamn mind’

    If you know me, you know I’m a lifelong fan of Maestro GEORGE ROMERO and his NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, one of my top 5 movies ever. So you can imagine how excited I’m to finally own an original one-sheet theatrical poster of that movie.

    The George Romero-supervised restoration of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968) from MoMA and The Film Foundation is now on Netflix. It's also on Criterion Channel, but it's nice to see such a significant (and subversive) indie classic on the largest subscription streaming service in the US. #FilmSky

    I've only asked two people for their autographs: JG Ballard and, later, George Romero. I first saw NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD at a film festival in Houston when I was a young teen. I didn't sleep for days. Happy birthday and thanks for the nightmares, George.

A bizarre hybrid (fish-man hybrid?) of that and Night of the Living Dead and the general apocalyptic vibe of the late ‘60s/early ‘70s, I dug it. And man that theater set piece …
