Yeah, Tom Savini remake. It's likable, although he went the typical Hollywood route of the strong female lead and pretty much killed it. I liked the old Barbara from the '68 version.

I love Savini the actor. I'll leave it at that.
Also, confirming Vampire Bats returns an error. In fact, the whole EOD has been acting wonky for me all day.

I heard about alot of bad experiences meeting Tom. But, when I met him he was a awesome guy! Had him sign my book of Grande illusions and my Ulltimate Dawn Of The Dead DVD. But, like I said. I have heard horror stories about meeting him and him being not so nice to some...

WARNING: SPOILERS FOR BOTH NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD MOVIES:
I like the remake Barbara better. She's introduced at the very beginning as "the main character" and she get's killed off before a few minor ones do. Bad move, Romero. Ben, the guy who was introducted 10 minutes into the film was the real main character of the original. In the remake, Barbara was the main character throughout the whole thing and she made it to the end of the movie.
I also like how Tom Savini handled Ben in the remake. He died in the original because an idiot in a redneck zombie hunting mob shot him through a window without checking to see that Ben was still human (i.e. implied racism). In the remake, Ben was turned into a zombie and Barbara discoverd him in a shed. It was an emotional scene, as the two of them were kicking zombie *** throughout the film and there we see one of them went down.
I also like the remake's gore factor. Sorry to the Romero fans, I love Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead, and even Land of the Dead was decent, but the original Night of the Living Dead is terrible. Romero made no attempt to make the zombies look like zombies. Blood splatters on their faces would have helped. They look just like normal people. I know it's black and white, but torn flesh on the face and fake blood would have still shown up. Romero didn't even try.
Savini made the better Night of the Living Dead. Though that's to be expected, Tom Savini is a special effects MASTER, and Romero is a director who made a great story, but did nothing to make it LOOK good, not until Dawn of the Dead 10 years later.

Before I say anything, you do know Romero's Night movies were a social commentary and allegorical... right? Cuz that seemed like a dissection of a random B-movie. And that made my brain hurt very very badly.
