BILL HINZMAN, DEAD AGAIN: MY FAVORITE ZOMBIE PASSES ON

Bill Hinzman, the most famous zombie from "Night of the Living Dead" and a really sweet guy, has left us. He will be missed!

I met Bill in 1996 at the Chiller Theatre convention when Date Bait had just gotten off the stage. It was 2am and I had the flu. It took me a few minutes before I realized that the man shaking my hand was the same guy that scared the living shit outta' me in the 7th grade!

from Night of the Living Dead (1968)
