Night of the Living Dead
Ben, the last person left alive in the house, manages to survive by locking himself in the basement after the zombies break in. The cavalry arrives the next morning in the form of a bunch of good ol' boys shootin' zombies real good. Unfortunately for Ben, as he runs upstairs to greet the rescuers, they mistake him for a zombie and put a bullet in his head. -.-

I think that might have been a social critique of some sort.  The ben guy was the first black guy in american movies to star as the hero of the show but gets shot in the end.  So mabey george romero and the writer thought that black people have a long way to go or something
