Answer

The title "Night of the Living Dead" was not the original title of George A. Romero's seminal zombie film. It was initially conceived as "Night of Anubis," drawing inspiration from the ancient Egyptian god of the dead. However, during production, the filmmakers opted for the more straightforward and evocative title that would become synonymous with the zombie genre.
