Night of the Living Dead (1968) - Best version?

I got Day of the Dead (1985) and Dawn of the Dead (1978) on DVD.

Now, I need this to complete the TRIOLOGY but there is way too many different versions!

I am confused, I see some crappy ones that sell for like $4 and some that get $20-25. So which one would you prefer to be the best version? Also how is the 3D version? Does it come with glasses?

The two Elite releases are the only ones that are even watchable really.......and they are excellent. The most recent Elite Millenium Edition is the better of the two, so might as well get that one.

Isn't the Elite laserdisc(nor sure it was them who released it-have it but haven't watched it in awhile) better than any DVD release?

I had read that some extras that were on the laserdisc were left off the first Elite release of NOTLD. I believe that they were all restored on the Millenium edition though. I don't think there is any major change in video or audio quality but I am just going by what I have read.

I have the first Elite edition & it is great. I actually listened to the 2nd commentary on it which has most of the cast. Both commentaries are very enjoyable. You won't be disappointed with either one. Just stay far, far away from the Anchor Bay edition.
