Tom Savini’s ‘Night of the Living Dead’ Resurrected on SteelBook 4K UHD with New Uncensored Cut

Tom Savini‘s 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead will celebrate its 35th anniversary with a SteelBook 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray release on September 23 via Sony.

In addition to the theatrical version, a new uncensored cut is included, both newly restored in 4K with Dolby Vision. Supervised by Savini, the alternate cut restores gore that was originally cut to avoid an X rating, in addition to starting in black and white before transitioning to color.

“Yes finally,” Savini wrote on Instagram. “Completely uncut, uncensored, and as I intended 35 years ago… it is black and white for a bit, as a homage to the original, and then color opens the curtain to my remake.”
