Karen Cooper’s death in Night of the Living Dead was haunting and unforgettable. After being bitten by a zombie, the young girl succumbed to the infection and was reanimated. In one of the most chilling scenes of the film, Karen attacks her mother and stabs her repeatedly with a trowel. The moment shows the emotional horror of a parent facing their child as a zombie and Karen’s transformation and subsequent actions spotlighted the unrelenting terror of the outbreak.
