Remake Night of the Living Dead - Synopsis

A Tom Savini remake of George Romero's 1968 black-and-white classic. This remake is wonderfully made, with a modern female heroine, tougher than old boots. It still has the cemetery, the farmhouse and the walking dead. What more can we ask for? For a remake I give it the thumbs up, Good one Tom

Before we Begin

Below are the THEN and NOW shots of the filming locations used in Tom Savini, Night of the Living Dead remake. The now shots are taken accordingly during our recent visit to the places (2007) while the then shots (1990) are the film grabs from the movie. This is a direct visual comparison of how the filming locations have changed over time. Some places and buildings are now totally unrecognizable due to massive development and area progress while some have undergone the opposite direction towards deterioration and decay. Some places, however, have stayed intact as they were, unaffected by the passage of weather and time.

The order below is the same order from the beginning to the end of the movie. If you can provide further information or help me locate the missing links, it will be greatly appreciated. These are all my personal observations and any form of constructive criticism or informative suggestion would be most welcome. If you know where the filming took place for this film, please use the contact form to get in touch. Click here to go to the contact form Thanks Roly – Filming Locations Detectives

The gates for the cemetary did not have the splendid feel to them as when the filming took place, so we presume these were prop gates. If you can give more information about the cemetary please contact me Click here to go to the contact form
