Choose your own Night Of The Living Dead adventure

Due to a clerical error, George Romero’s 1968 zombie classic Night Of The Living Dead never received a copyright, and has consequently been a public-domain property ever since. That’s bad for Romero, obviously, but good for the dozens of distributers who’ve released DVD and VHS copies. It’s also good for the Internet: The entire movie is available to download/watch for free on several sites, including YouTube. Now, someone has taken that freedom one step further with “Editing The Dead,” which re-cuts Night Of The Living Dead into a choose-your-own-adventure-style YouTube series. Using in-video links, you can jump from clip to clip, re-sequencing the film into dozens of permutations, plotting for maximum zombie carnage (or none, if you’re the survivalist type).
