Night of The Living Dead (1968) Full movie+Gamebuino player

Saturday night and nothing to do eh ?

NOT TO WORRY !

You can watch the full classic movie, the grandfather of all Zombie movies, "Night of the Living Dead" RIGHT ON YOUR GAMEBUINO !!!

John Romero's 1968 cult classic was the movie that defined the Zombie genre. It was originally intended to be called "Night of the Flesh Eaters" but the name was changed at last moment. Unfortunately, the production company forgot to put Copyright notices in the edited version with a different title - the film became one of the most pirated films of all times because it had no copyright notice. The production company went bust and John Romero never got a dime for his masterpiece (but he's dead now, so its Ok to share this I guess).

But remember ! Night of the living dead is a Horror movie, and it is rated mature audience only (k-18). I will not be held responsible if you download this and are not old enough to watch it!

The player is in the zip file in this posting.

Player functions:
- B to stop playback
- A to resume playback
- C to go to Gamebuino loader
- Up for sound on
- Down for sound off
- Left for skip back
- Right for skip forward

The movie file is available from my Google drive account, download link below. You need to unzip it. It is 71,4 Mb, you need to put it on the SD card. It is 74000 frames of lovingly dithered low-res movie for your enjoyment, took over 2 hours to process.

WARNING: if you are an absolute Gamebuino beginner, and do not know for example how to use the Arduino IDE at all, this is not for you. I will not be held responsible for any damage (however unlikely) you might obtain through the use of these files. Proceed at your own risk.

Have a good movie night !

Oh my nerp, that looks amazing :) One of these days I'll go watch it, probably in the middle of the night when I'll get a Gamebuino :P
Also, question : Are the frames at a 1-bit indexed palette? It could save space on the movie.

Yes you can make your own movie.

I have written full instructions on how to make the movie + the tools needed to convert the video in this instructable page:

http://www.instructables.com/id/Streaming-video-from-SD-card-to-Nokia-LCD-with-Ard/

It is quite advanced however. But absolutely you can do your own movie with my instructions, if you concentrate and read the instructions thoroughly.

Could you make an automatic converter?

Nope. Sorry. No time.

I suck at Windows/Linux programming. The source code to everything is in the instructables, perhaps someone will make a converter.

That would be awesome of someone could make that
