Flesh Eaters Reborn: Exploring Night of the Living Dead (1990)

In this episode of The Eric Fright Show, I’m taking a deep dive into Tom Savini's 1990 remake of the iconic Night of the Living Dead. Join me as I explore the film's fresh take on the classic characters—Barbara's transformation from terror-stricken to empowered, Ben's relentless fight for survival, Harry's selfish paranoia, Helen's tragic struggle, Tom and Judy's doomed love, and the eerie fate of Sarah and Johnnie.

I’ll discuss the movie’s underlying themes of survival, fear, and human conflict, and how they resonate in this reimagining of Romero’s original. Plus, I’ll uncover some behind-the-scenes facts and real-life horror stories related to the unsettling phenomenon of post-mortem body movements. Whether you're a fan of the original or new to the world of the living dead, this episode offers a spine-chilling exploration of a film that still breathes new life into the zombie genre.
