Very nice post on LotD RGA...thanks!An acquaintance of mine had a small bit part in the film, and consequently has seen the original, longer, cut of the film and says that the studio did Dead fans a disservice when they pressured Romero to cut it down. I think the longer cut may address the issue you had with characterisation and (for me) expansiveness. I've heard that his cut was anywhere from 15 to 25 minutes longer, net reports have mentioned that there was a very interesting opening sequence involving a wedding party, and that no longer appears to be the case with the theatrical cut.
