Dawn of the Dead will forever be my favorite Romero film. It's top tier

Dawn isn't just my favorite Romero movie -- it's my favorite movie, period!

Dawn is probably my favorite. Everything blends perfectly. I've been going through more of his filmography recently. Love his brain, love the way he thinks.

This is an excellent countdown/review of films. Can't wait to see more of these.

Oh yeah, I love the Dead series! My personal favorite is Dawn, but they're all iconic! 👍

Land of the dead deserves more love

Ah, good times, Doc. Really nice to see Land get some love. I've always liked that one. Saw it at the theater while on vacation down in Panama City Beach. And then Martin, that's been on my "Needs to get a nice release" wishlist for years and years. Probably my third favorite Romero film.

How do you not have more subscribers?!? This is fucking GREAT!! I love when the algorithm drops an unknown smaller channel like this in my feed!!

love Knightriders... i gotta say, this is the film that brought Ed Harris to my attention as well as Savani. great film.

Some I knew, some I'd forgotten, some I didn't know at all! Thank your Dr Gangrene, very interesting and informative.

Man this was fantastic, Doc! Always love all of your added info. Stay Mad!

I’m so happy to have found this channel. Great content and real love on Romero’s work!

Day of the dead will always be the ultimate Romero film. Not only is it a great horror movie it's a great movie acting special effects and George's direction were all on point. George was at the peak of his powers here. The Florida scenes and Miguel sacrificing himself were totally inspired. Miss you George you were part of my childhood and you will never be forgotten.♥️

I'm a huge a huge Romero fan and I think this list is spot on and well observed. Thank you, good Doctor.

Great video, Doc! While I'm not a huge fan of the zombie genre, it's clear that Romero is one of it's trailblazers. Oddly enough, the movie that caught my attention the most was "Bruiser". Love the countdowns and reviews, so keep them coming!

Loved this compilation countdown. Maybe you could do one on Argento films in the future.

Cool video. Nice production. Sad that yt does not show it to more people.

loved the countdown, doc! appreciate you said the top ones were fluid, I would have to put dawn at the top.

I always enjoy watching Dr.Gangrene

Definitely agree that the top 5 are pretty interchangeable depending on the day. Never seen Martin, so that will be next on my list! Thanks for the video, Doc.

This channel is the best channel ever

Rest in peace, George

Hey Kanao Kanegon - I accidentally deleted your comment. So sorry my friend! I had a spammer leave a comment and I tried to delete it on my phone, and it deleted both it and your comment. But thanks for the comment. I totally agree about Martin - GREAT movie!

You did the right thing with the top five. Without your disclaimer you'd end being roasted in the comments! Great video. Thanks.

Day of the dead is my favorite. Great video Doc

I love how you’re a keeper of the flame with setting records straight in regards to false info, Doc. Tough to disagree with this list. Great breakdown. Here’s hoping for that region 1 Martin Blu-ray!

Very well done!

Being an 80's kid i was into all things Horror back then, especially movies, it was after all the hayday of the Slasher Genre. Dawn of the Dead and Creepshow were my introduction to George Romero movies when i was a kid, then followed closely by Day of the Dead upon it's release. I was a big fan of Zombie movies, and George's were the gold standard in the Genre and gave me plenty of nightmares as a kid...cheers. I really enjoyed George Romero's movies, and after a bit of digging i discovered gems like Night of the Living Dead and The Crazies during my teens. Nice video, fine list order too. Cheers.

Interesting rankings Doc. Wish I could meet you at a con sometime.

I've always been most fond of Day Of The Dead myself but love them all to some degree. Night is a true classic as well as Creepshow.

I agree with your top 5 100% with each interchangeable depending on my mood as well

My man George A Romero!absolutely love this legend of Pittsburgh!rip

Martin, I believe, got a 4K release from British label Second Sight. 4K doesn't have region restrictions. I got an Italian import of Dawn Of The Dead that had the European version in 4K and the other cuts on region B Blu Ray. The 4K transfer was supervised by Drive director Nicolas Winding Refn. I don't know why they didn't have Argento supervising the transfer.

Creepshow is when Romero really let savani and his team take the reins in 1982. The make up effects were right on par with the thing movie effects. It was the build up to day of the dead make up effects. Wonderful progression imo. I gotta watch creepshow 2 and check any comparisons.

Thank You for the reviews Dr Gangrene! Curiosity got the best of me and I ordered a copy of “Martin”. Not Blu-Ray lol. Definitely makes you wonder and I wasn’t expecting that ending 😳. I’m amazed at all that’s out there that I never knew of! Thanks again!

The ending of NOTLD still hits hard. It’s still especially relevant today which is even more horrifying

Dawn of the Dead is my top Romero film, then Night, Martin, Knightriders, The Crazies and Bruiser.

Im from Pennsylvania so all the dead movies felt so close to home

Legendary Movies From The Legend George A Romero. 👍👌👊✊😊🍁🎃🍁 RIP George A Romero 😔

I met George a while back, and I told him Day was my favorite of his. He said it was his favorite, too. Now I know there's a good chance he was lying to me. If he wasn't, then it's cool that we shared that in common. If he was, then he was only doing so because he knew it would make me feel good. Either way, he was a good person who made horrible (in a good way) movies.

Day is my fav. Night second place. My favorite zombie flick of all time is the 90 remake.

I didn't realize that Survival of the Dead was a Romero film until now, I'm pretty sure I saw it on the Syfy channel so I assumed it was one of their originals lmao

Anyone else think land of the dead is the hell that elliot west is dragged to in amityville 3? Same face burn, same actor, all he knows is he was pulled from a big fire by riley.

Dawn being at #3 and below Creepshow and Night Of The Living Dead couldn’t be so different to mine. At #3 Day Of The Dead #2 The Crazies and at #1.. Dawn Of The Dead, the greatest movie George ever made as well as it being the greatest Zombie movie of all time no matter which version you choose to watch

I have tried to get through Survival three times or so. Maybe this will help me finish it.

Night of the living dead, dawn of the dead ,diary of the dead ,survival of the dead,day of the dead and land of the dead are all connected in the same universe confirmed by the god father of the zombies himself rip George Romero I love you !!!!

I would have put Knightriders higher. But great list!

Dawn of the Dead 78' rulez forever 💯👀🔨🔨🔨🔨🔨 Greetings from Hamburg Germany 🤘👍

Loved seeing Knighriders getting respect. It's not talking about enough these days at all.

Your top 5 Romero list matches mine 👍🏻. The only thing I’d change would be #16 & #17. I’d rather watch Survival Of The Dead than Bruiser. My short list of favorite directors is John Carpenter & George Romero.

Knightriders is underrated, in my opinion. Maybe it is select taste, but it really captures human greed and ideology

When it comes to George’s Zombie Movies I’d put Diary last followed by Land, Survival, Night, Day and finally Dawn Of The Dead at #1. Is others movies have one that stands above all others and that is The Crazies. Speaking of The Crazies why do a hell of a lot of fans think Lynn Lowry is the sexiest woman but no one mentions or shows any love for Lane Carroll who in my opinion is absolutely stunningly beautiful

No way is Night of The Living Dead better than the near perfect Dawn of the Dead, sure it’s influential but as a watch, it’s slow and not much happening. I was obsessed with Creepshow when I first saw it in the 80s and being a comics fan

In my opinion Dawn is his greatest movie but, like you said, any one of those top ones could be it

My favorite is Knight Riders!

Nashville! Me too buddy!

💕 IT!!!

I just watched Martin ... and I'm surprised you (and the man himself?! George A! Really?!) like the downtrodden, modern day (1970's) Vampire in Pittsburgh tale so much. I heard there was a 2 and 1/2 hour version, too! Maybe I need to watch Martin again, but it won't be anytime soon. The ending (and the dialogue with the radio show host) was good enough, but it was almost a slog dealing with the 90 minute version of Martin --- is he or is he not: A Vampire. Talking/Writing rather uncomplimentary of Martin reminded me of Knightriders which I vividly remember watching on HBO when I was a 9th or 10th grader and thinking 'What the hell is this? This isn't George Romero! Where's the horror!? The Horror!" I embellish a bit . But, I kept watching. I immediately became a fan of Ed Harris, while developing an appreciation for a good story revolving around 'Knights of the Round Table", and who would be king (as it were). Plus, the realization the modern day bikers lifestyle is a character study that dips a toe in the pool 'lake' (Lady 😋) of the Taxi Driver. To this day I have a DVD of Knightriders -- all 145 minutes of it -- which I am watching again because of your informative video. I had never heard of There's Always Vanilla or The Amusement Park. I need to watch Monkey Shines, again, too. That was a movie I was disappointed when I first saw ... then watched again while in my early 20's and kind of liked it. It is different and tense (from what I recall). I haven't seen it in decades. Thanx for The Crazies reminder. Saw the remake, too. It is not as good as the Dawn of the Dead (Zach Snyder) remake (I think you'd agree). Great having the 'safe haven' be the mall which slams the satire on commercial and consumerism right in our oh so bloody faces. I have not watched Romero's The Crazies in 40 yrs. Yikes! How did that happen ? Why I don't Have a copy of Creepshow I can't explain. But, "I can hold my breath a lonnng time!" Oh! Ed Harris is in the one "Where's My Cake?! I want My Cake!" LOL Too Fun! I thought the 2nd Creepshow was good enough too with Romero writing but not directing. "Thanks for the ride lady!" Just thought it worth a mention. Dr Gangrene ... good video sir.

Never seen The Dark Half but it sounds like Malignant took more than a couple cues from that film

Are u the brother of the frost cutlery guy? He’s kiiiiing..

it's somewhat hard to believe that he chose a black actor to play the lead simply because he was the best actor, and they didn't change anything (the ending) after that fact, considering the obvious implications and commentary of the ending. he is a great actor, and definitely played the part excellently. the movie still would've been a masterpiece of ground breaking indie horror if the lead were a white man, but it would have been a completely different movie, not on the same culturally important level.

Why would two feuding Irish families move to the same island? North America is freaking huge.

The dark half to me actually was a great movie

Do you go to Belcourt ever?

Carpenter and Romero both got shit on by Hollywood very sad because they are both masters

I liked season of the witch I remember it

Oh, I love the Diary of the Dead! Dawn of the Dead should be #1.

I just bought Land of the Dead again because of this

Didn't mind diary of the dead👍🏻

My favorite Romero film has also been Dawn of the Dead, considering it less claustrophobic that its predecessor. Never liked Creepshow though. My favorite anthology movies have always been House That Dripped Blood and Tales from the Crypt.

I can have an alright time with Diary of the Dead because I felt Romero was trying with it but it felt like a backward step to me because it was pretty much a redo of Night but done in the modern day. Bruiser, I actually didn't mind either because for me it was just a typical revenge movie with a supernatural twist of the guy losing his identity. I really enjoy Night Dawn Day and even Land I didn't like Survival much at all felt like Romero wanted to do a western but was forced to make it a zombie film and now they're making a sequel to Night of the Living Dead with Romero family which is concerning to me.

I do not fully agree with the order of the Top 10

i thought diary of the dead was pretty good remember being sick of reality pov movies at the time and thought id dislike it from the get go. still like it now does it right imo

Hah, I never even heard that Bruiser is a Romero movie. Only that it is a little original and a lot of crap.

You forgot dead time stories.😅

best Romero flick is noltd remake.

NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968) #1

No way dawn is 3.. no way

Day of the Dead is his best 'Dead' movie .... Dawn is completely overrated .. I've never understood the fanaticism about that one. The Goblin score is the best thing about it. ... Kind of reminds me of the hype for the first Halloween movie ... great score, but a snooze fest with a huge cult following. .... I thought Halloween 3, season of the witch as weird and campy as it was , was still way more interesting than those boring 'heavy breather in a mask' movies. Night of the Living Dead is also a much better movie than Dawn, .. and Creep Show is an absolute classic.

Just watch the crazies.... it could be the start of dawn of the dead

Dawn of the dead number 1 Dayof the dead 2 Land of the dead 3

I thought Diary was entertaining.

The list is good.. wrong.. but good.. Night , Dawn and Day will always be in spots 1-3 in that order. Martin tho? Really? In 4? I saw it once.. and was not really impressed with it.

Dawn of the Dead is a great movie but the zombies look like crap. The effects are so much better in the third movie. Dawn suffers doubly by comparison with the excellent Tom Savini remake of the original.

Those drag queens in Season of the Witch?

Dawn of the Dead is #1, come on

Martin is not top 5!!!!! #1 Night of the living dead. #2 Dawn of the dead. #3 The Crazies.

Day of the dead 1985 is top of the trilogy. Hands down with a second doubt. Grease paint zombies in 1978 were frowned upon by savani. Dawn could have been much better zombie wise but oh well, nothing is perfect.. except maybe milla jovovich.

Pretty cliche cookie cutter list bro. Boring

The phony Irish accents and ham fisted bad acting ruined Survival of the dead for me

Idc I like Diary of the Dead and Survival of the Dead they are different
