A great moment.

But from your thread title, I was expect news of a major gathering of surviving actors, zombies and film crew, plus George Romero himself.

Sorry for any confusion caused by the thread title, but eight cast & crew including director Romero is about as good as it gets these days. It was also the first time that any of them had seen Charles Craig since the movie was filmed 40 years ago (not even at the 1968 premiere in Pittsburgh).

Left to right: George Kosana (sheriff), Russ Streiner (producer/Johnny), Kyra Schon (Karen Cooper),
Judy O'Dea (Barbra), Bill Hinzman (cemetery ghoul), George Romero (director), John Russo (screenwriter/ghoul), Charles Craig (tv newscaster/ghoul).

Now there are rumors of an event that could turn out to be the major Night of the Living Dead gathering that we all hope for, so keep your windows and doors boarded...

Nice. I was watching NOTLD just last week and wondering about that newscaster guy...
