 I'm a big fan of the film, so it pains me to say that I don't consider any of the existing releases as "good". None are especially any better than adequate, so I'd recommend going for the cheapest one you can find. I have the Trilogy of the Dead boxset version, and a standalone release, as the TotD boxset version is the anniversary cut that featured new footage shot in the 90's. That version offers the best transfer, but the new footage is rubbish.

 DO NOT buy the Special Edition DVD released by Contender. It's cut. I have the uncut version released by Cinema Club, which comes with a documentary called Reflections of the Living Dead.

The film itself is out of copyright due to a cock up in registering it, and can be downloaded from here:

There are a number of file types available, including those ready to be burned onto a DVD.

I have this version from the US. Good picture quality, decent extras and approved by Romero.
