Oh forsure the "68 version!

There have been many a copy cat spin off after this puppy came about,

It changed the face of Horror forever.

Can't beat a low-to-no budget movie that scares the s**t out of you!


However the the 90' is more beleavable, and more in depth

I've never seen the remake - the original was so good that I didn't want to be disapointed by a bad remake.

I was the ONLY person to laugh when I went and saw Shaun of the Dead when the guys called the mother adn said "We're coming to get you barbara" No one else seemed to have caught the irony in the line, but i found it hilarious whee

I must triumph Savini's remake for at least being better than one would think- specifically for the newer, more up-to-date, kickass Barbara.

While everyone might concentrate on what a groundbreaking move it was to cast a black actor as the lead in the original film, Romero plain and simple couldn't write a female character for s**t. The original Barbara was really the weakest point of the film, and I think Savini made a really good choice in his remake with the character.

I'm not discrediting the original, but let's not discard the remake on a superficial "OH, IT'S A REMAKE!" level.

Plus the remake finally made Romero some cash, so that's good.

Plus it has Tony Todd.

TONY TODD.
