What do you prefer: The original 1969 Night of the Living Dead or the 1990 remake?
I personally think they are both good. The original though has a somber feeling that takes you through out the movie, and for being black & white really has a special classic note.
On the other hand, the remake takes you to a more tridimentional world, and you feel more like taking part in the action. Also, this is the first one I saw, so I think I'll go with the remake.
How about you?

I liked the 1990 version. My uncle played McGruder in the film ( the zombie who fights with them and gets shot in the head with the rifle) and my father is a zombie in one of the porch scenes. It is a fun memory of when they made this film.

I liked both of them!
the original was much creepier and bleaker though. I liked the 1990 version cuz it had had color and a better ending.

i have to agree they were both good-and i almost never like remakes.i really like the dark filming of the first one.the black and white,i think made it extra creepy in a "body snatchers kind of way.

I too saw the remake first.
I loved the movie - was the first movie to make me jump in a long time.
After buying all the sequels, I finally decided to buy the original. I expected that I wouldn't like it. But was shocked. I didn't hate it.
But the remake has got to be my favorite.
