The humanity of zombies

George Romero died at the age of 77. He's the New York born film-maker who created the genre of zombie horror movies. It all started back in 1968 when he directed ‘Night of the Living Dead.' Reporter Beth Accomando says the movie became such a classic because Romero’s zombies are scary but also relatable.
