NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1990) | Romero + Savini: Horror’s Greatest Partnership, Part X
In the conclusion of our exploration of the collaborations between filmmakers George Romero and Tom Savini, we're brining in the series full circle.
After years of litigation, attempting to reclaim the rights to the original NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968), George Romero and his Image Ten cohorts figured that the best way to protect their copyright — and hopefully finally make a bit of money from it — was to remake the film.
So in 1990, that's what they did. Romero wrote the script and, since he was busy with another project, recruited his long time collaborator Tom Savini to sit in the directors chair.
