Here's the site's official press release for the doc:

In 1968, the DEAD walked...

Now the DEAD will talk.

Board up the windows and doors!   More than 40 years after filming the 1968 horror masterpiece, Night of the Living Dead, the "dead" return in an all-new documentary from director Jeff Carney entitled Autopsy of the Dead.

Now you may be asking, "What, another documentary?  Is there much more that can be said about this classic film?"  If so, the answer to your question is a resounding yes.  We've dug deep to exhume new insight from many of the contributors to the original Night of the Living Dead who have never before been interviewed in print or on camera.  Despite there being an overwhelming number of remakes, reboots, theatrical adaptations, and literary works about this single film, it is simply astounding and quite possibly negligent that there has yet to be a truly thorough document of the living history behind the legendary movie that has attained the status of a cultural landmark.  Autopsy of the Dead takes the first big step in correcting this oversight.

Packed with extensive interviews, never-before-seen color photos and behind-the-scenes footage, visits to the original filming locations and other surprises, get ready for the most in-depth visual document on the making of the great American horror film that just won't stay dead.

They're coming to get you...

This is a sweet contest made possible by Jim and the fine people behind AUTOPSY OF THE DEAD.  Make sure to enter, because you've got to be in it to win it (if the "it" referred to is a cemetery plot in Evans City!).
