Night of the Living Dead Getting 4K Treatment from Criterion

Coming October 4th from Criterion is the George A. Romero classic zombie film Night of the Living in glorious 4K on October 4th. Well, I’m assuming glorious as we haven’t had a chance to see what it looks like or what it will sound like.

The restoration was supervised by George A. Romero, coscreenwriter John A. Russo, sound engineer Gary R. Streiner, and producer Russell W. Streiner.
