Figured since it's kinda quiet tonight, I'd share a bit of interesting trivia.
In 1968, the father of the zombie movie was released. Night of the Living Dead. At the time, it was required that a copyright notice had to be included in a film before a valid copyright would be recognized. During an edit to the title sequence of the film, the original copyright notice was accidentally removed, and thus the film was released into the public domain.
You can download/watch it on archive.org here.
