The #RomeroLives press conference is happening now! I’m standing outside of the Byham Theater where Night of the Living Dead was first shown 50 years ago to the day! What a legacy!

#throwbackthursday to the filming of Monkey Shines. Fun Fact: George was gifted a pet monkey in 1963, which ended up becoming The Latent Image’s Office monkey.
