- QuizThe filmmakers had to get approval from Lysol to have Frank spray away the stench of death with their product. "They liked the idea that Lysol would kill any conceivable odor."
- BlooperWhen Frank is explaining how the original Night of the Living Dead is based on a true story, he states that the true story occurred in 1969. However La notte dei morti viventi (1968) was released in 1968, a year before the incident happened. In the original script Frank said the event happened in 1966, but Dan O'Bannon changed the line because he felt it would be better if the character was unreliable.
- Curiosità sui creditiThe following phony disclaimer precedes the movie: "The events portrayed in this film are all true. The names are real names of real people and real organizations."
- Versioni alternativeThe MGM 2002 DVD releases (UK and US) has had some changes in the audio compared to the original version:
- The Damned song Dead Beat Dance has been replaced with another song
- The Tar Man's voice has been re-recorded. However, the original Tar Man voice can be heard briefly during the closing credit sequence.
- The line "send more cops" has also been re-recorded
- The song "Take a walk" has been removed, now you only hear it for a few seconds with no vocals.
- The song "Burn the flames" has also been shortened.

Recensione in evidenza
To this day, I can't believe Dan O'Bannon got away with using "The Living Dead" in his title. George Romero should have sued, and probably did. Nevertheless, this is a classic horror comedy straight out of the 1980s, with gruesome brain-devouring zombies running riot in a small town. Actually, due to the movie's modest budget, the zombies run around a small number series of sets, consisting of a warehouse, both inside and outside, a bridge and a mortuary, inside and outside. There also are a couple of shots dealing with Army personnel. An Abbott and Costello-type pair unleashes a government-developed gas that revives the dead. Even dead parts. A warehouse exec, a mortuary owner and several daffy young people end up in a fight for their lives, while a series of EMTs and police arriving on the scene are quickly dispatched by the ravenous zombies. The hammy acting is strictly from hunger, the dialog largely improvised, and the clumsy blocking and static photography (mostly medium shots) are like something from a 1932 talkie. But the zombie attacks are ferocious and go way beyond anything Romero attempted in "Night." Also, zombies getting on the ambulance and police radios to order up more help in their sepulchral voices is beyond hilarious. You also have the ravishing Scream Queen of her day, Leanna Quigley, spending most of screen time nekkid. It also is a riot to see familiar grocery store hawker James Karen in a prominent role here. Plus, much has been said over the years about the individual hired to play the rotting basement zombie, and he is indeed absolutely marvelous. Good for a laugh, and great for trotting out every Halloween.
