that is probably why i like it so much, as well as the other 1960 movie examples brought up (the last man on earth, carnival of souls), after i explained what sort of budget this movie had my buddy was quite impressed by it, spoiler, i'm used to it now but this is one awfully sad downer ending, after having watched "day of the dead" from 1985 i just had to re watch this which i watch every halloween anyway, it is so superior, as how they put more focus on these people (instead of the zombies like the 1985 movie) stuck in the country house, the great settings of the 1960's with regular people (instead of juvenile macho men in "day of the dead"), and the radio and tv reception these people receive, would that instead get replaced by 1980's pop sync techno... oh right, that was the constant soundtrack in the 1985 flick, and since this movie is so old you don't get hit in the face with blood and violence but rather chilling, mysterious and spooky. the 1990 remake version i could never get hooked on, but wasn't there another version of this made decades later with added new shot scenes not going over well with the public or critics, i know this was also once put colour on but i think it suits in black and white like "psycho" (1960) and "ed wood" (1994). funny the line about changing the hours to get more daylight, how insane😀 i figure you're taken off guard the by the first zombie in this movie as it appears like a regular looking guy just strolling around the cemetery without any horror make up on. this and the following two are being described as romero's zombie trilogy, then there kept coming more in the 21st century, i think i saw the first of them but more recently i saw birth of the living dead (documentary about this) and i know to others as well this flick has become a tradition pick for halloween.

you always had a smile for me,
nomatter what misery,
on every path,
like a kindred sister i had,
since you left the face of earth turned sad.
