ZRC Salutes: Tom Savini!

ZRC Salutes Tom Savini!

You can’t have a good zombie movie without convincing looking zombies, and when you talk about zombie special effects, one man stands above the crowd: Tom Savini! He defined the zombie “look” with his work on Dawn of the Dead (1978) and Day of the Dead (1985), and is also an accomplished actor in his own right (usually playing either a biker or a deputy sherrif). Savini has a passion for special effects makeup and has penned several books on the subject. He even teaches an associate degree program in special effects makeup.

Recently he’s been busy acting with appearances in Grindhouse: Planet Terror and the upcoming Lost Boys 2: The Tribe. He’s also a regular of the convention circuit and is easy to meet and talk to. Tom Savini, the ZRC salutes you for your outstanding work in zombie films!

RIP Adam Neurotrash

We just found out recently that one of our fellow bloggers Adam, from the blog Neurotrash, passed away last December. While we didn’t know him personally, he was involved here as a reader and commenter (who we occasionally butted heads with, but is this really anything new to the internet?). So, condolences to his family, friends and readers…
