💀🧑‍💻A Spook-A-Doodle Bracketology Tournament & Movie Club Collection👩‍💻💀 and offshoot of 🧟‍♂️Knockoffs of the Living Dead🧟‍♀️.

Yet another team inspired by a list I already had on Letterboxd and an obvious one to me were the MANY “sequels” to George Romero’s classic Night of the Living Dead. Romero’s films are all off doing their own thing and those Italian knockoffs aren’t here, this is for the “sequels” to a film that accidently failed to copyright itself. So because some guy forgot to put the little © on the title card one of the greatest horror films of all time is actually a film you could legally sell a copy of or make a sequel or remake for. And boy have people taken advantage of that. There’s tons of them out there and even limited to directors who didn’t have a non Living Dead film I still had my pick. In the end every film on this list has some kind of connection back to Romero. Whether its the original “knockoff” in the equally classic Return or Savini’s “official” remake or versions starring folks like Tony Todd and Ken Foree. And I’m even courting the “Cult of Snyder”. This may be my most diabolically constructed team. But its still probably half crap so as usual a coin toss for a first round knockout. That’s what I do.
