  • Samantha is watching George A. Romero's "Night of the Living Dead" (1968) on television. The film is in the public domain, so no royalties had to be paid to the filmmakers for its use.
  • Samantha is watching George A. Romero's "Night of the Living Dead" on television. The film is in the public domain, so no royalties had to be paid to its authors for its use.
