Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has announced that the uncensored cut of Tom Savini’s 1990 “official” remake of George A. Romero’s classic horror Night of the Living Dead starring horror legend Tony Todd is set for a 35th anniversary 4K Ultra HD Steelbook release this September, complete with a new ‘Uncensored Cut’ which restores footage of “graphic violence” previously removed to avoid an X certificate; check out the cover artwork and details here…
It’s a new night for terror – and a new dawn in horror movie-making when special-effects genius Tom Savini (creator of the spectacularly gruesome make-up in FRIDAY THE 13TH and CREEPSHOW) brings his twisted take to this colorful remake of George A. Romero’s 1968 cult classic. Seven strangers are trapped in an isolated farmhouse while cannibalistic zombies wage a relentless attack, killing (and eating) everyone in their path. The classic for the ’90s: graphic, gruesome and more terrifying than ever!
