They recall the creative solutions they came up with to deal with unforeseen problems and put crew members in front of the camera in order to cut costs. They provide plenty of filming anecdotes and talk mainly about how they pulled off certain shots, make-up effects, and other technical details on this production-oriented track.
Commentary 2: Actor/assistant cameraman S. William Hinzman, actors Judith O'Dea, Keith Wayne and Kyra Schon, actor/producer Russel Streiner and actor/production manager Vincent D. Survinski Rating:7.2/10 (4 votes) [graph]Login to vote or review

Nice track. The participants seem to have fun and share some memories on making the film with a small budjet.

Everyone laughs and jokes with each others as they reminisce about making the film. They have a lot of fun recounting the stories behind what we are watching and speak admiringly of Duane Jones. This is an engaging, anecdotal track.
