George A. Romero’s NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD Invades Drive-In Theaters Soon
Grindhouse Releasing and Janus Films will unleash George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead 4K restoration into drive-ins throughout America.
That said, at the moment, only three locations have been confirmed:

- Riverside Drive-In in Vandergrift, Pennsylvania on August 28-29th
- Midway Drive-In in Sterling, Illinois on September 19th
While that’s not a whole lot of info to go on at this time, it’s worth noting that this 4K restoration will also sport a new introduction from The Living Dead author Daniel Kraus. So that’s something.
