Movie Reviews

The Film Stage - 9/10 by Amanda WaltzViewers will feel most rewarded by Kuhns' dissecting of Night's production, which provides a colorful and inspiring portrait of guerrilla filmmaking from a pre-digital era.
The Tyee (British Columbia) - 9/10 by Dorothy WoodendBirth is filled with these types of candid moments, but there is something else, a genuine excitement that occurs when something new is created.
Village Voice - 9/10 by Ernest HardyWhat distinguishes this doc from much of the tedious critical prose Romero has inspired is the fan-boy and fan-girl ardor that fuels its smarts--both behind and in front of the camera.
Blu-ray.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfWhat works here is enthusiasm, enjoying a wealth of appreciation presented to a worthy production, reinforcing its status as a groundbreaking picture that reverberates to this day.
Shockya.com - 9/10 by Brent SimonAn engaging doc that merits its existence both from the legitimate perspective of academic-leaning film historians as well as more casual horror fans.
Big Hollywood - 8/10 by Christian TotoThe Birth of the modern zombie film wasn't scary. It was downright hilarious, according to this smart new doc.
New York Times - 8/10 by Andy WebsterMr. Romero, manifesting a self-effacing demeanor and sensible humanity, is a most agreeable raconteur.
Cinema Crazed - 8/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.A short but sweet look at an iconic cinema masterpiece...
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Jeff ShannonRomero himself is the film's highlight, appearing relaxed and funny in an entertaining interview.
Time Out - 8/10 by Joshua RothkopfKuhns makes time for political insights, provocative montages of race riots cut with the movie’s hick militia, and the comments of owlish Romero himself, who recounts the shoot like the enthusiastic 27-year-old he was.
