Make Your Own Zombie Film With “Editing The Dead”

Night of the Living Dead is known for being one of the first modern zombie films, and its director George A. Romero is considered the grandfather of the genre. Unfortunately, despite its critical acclaim and success, Romero has seen very little money directly from the film. Thanks to a clerical error, the film immediately lost its copyright, and it has since been in the public domain. Now someone has used that freedom to make an interactive version of the film.

The project is called Editing The Dead, and can be found at EditingTheDead.com. Once there, you watch videos and make selections for the characters to create your own story based on footage from the film. The use of creative editing gives you a lot of options in the story, despite it being based on a single 96 minute film. Try it for yourself and let us know what you think!
