"Not just a collective production, Night of the Living Dead was a film
whose meaning was created by its audience—or rather audiences—as it
short-circuited established patterns of publicity and exhibition.
After its initial run in grind-houses and drive-ins, the movie was
re-released the next summer with an eye to black audiences, on a
double bill with Slaves, another Walter Reade production, the crude
but effective anti-Gone with the Wind made by the former member of the
Hollywood Ten and _unrepentant Marxist_ Herbert Biberman." [A man
