Night of the Living Dead
Night of the Living Dead could not be mistaken for a horror film. ... The film makes use of heavy, unflattering lighting by using it on the faces of the “dead. ... But in this film it is perfect because it makes the “dead” seem very ugly and scary. The best example of this type of lighting is when the main character shoots the “dead man” in the chest at close range. ... It makes the moment when he proves that he is not dead even more intense. ... An example is the scene where the “dead girl” was eating human remains and we do not see her face completely because it is blocked by some unidentifiable object. ... The music and sound effects that are used in Night of the Living Dead classify it as a horror film. ... In this movie, there is often dead silence. Long period of silence when the characters are waiting for either help or to be taken by the dead make the viewer nervous and anxious.
