No one should be put off by the price of this or the fact that its black and white. This movie is a horror classic that spawned a thousand clones and spinoffs over the years as many others imitated it. It is the story of a group of people holed up in an abandoned house fighting of the undead while also trying to deal with their own differences. Just imagine every other diasater type film with its abrasive group of people and make the zombies the disaster and your pretty close except this does it one better by being original.
