10 Zombie Movies Where Everyone Dies

Night of the Living Dead is filmmaker George A. Romero’s revolutionary horror masterpiece. It is the film that changed how horror was seen and made, and its influence on horror cinema is still prevalent to this day. It's also a movie that has shaped how zombies are seen on screen.

A group tries to take shelter in a farmhouse and end up fighting for survival as the dead begin to rise. These flesh-eating ghouls are rampaging their way across the east coast and the only way to stop them is to burn them or destroy their brains. Groups of vigilantes are now roaming the countryside looking to shoot down any ghouls they come across.

The movie is over 50 years old, but it remains an incredibly influential one. It was the first time a horror picture was led by an African-American actor, and it was one peppered with socio-political commentary. But it’s the shocking way in which the film ends that made audiences gasp.

Ben, the last survivor of the zombie hordes, leaves the farmhouse for supposed safety and is shot by armed men after being mistaken for a ghoul.
