The Top 10 Movies of Independence now have a #9!

Night of the Living Dead. I had to get a horror movie on the list somewhere, and I can think of nothing better. The Exorcist is a close 2nd, but it clocked in at #16. This movie has just a weird feel to it. A lot of that feel was created by the low budget, rather unintentionally -- LISTEN to this movie -- so many parts have NO SOUND whatsoever: No natural sound, no soundtrack, no nothing. Just complete silence while these people go around doing things inside the house to try to barricade themselves against the zombies. So you have this long stretch of complete silence, and then BOOOOOOM! -- zombie at 9 0'clock trying to break in! the black and white film in 1969 only adds to the weird feeling. What a movie!
