    • Night of the Living Dead (1968) It only makes sense to induct any "Living Dead" newbie into the franchise with the O.G. "Night of the Living Dead." Romero released this low-budget, black-and-white cult classic in the height of the civil rights era, focusing on the events of an initial zombie outbreak and offering some heavy-hitting racial commentary (via The Boston Globe).
