	Tom Savini

	Tom Savini - Interesting Motherfuckers - Acid Logic ezine
		Savini was there as a US Army combat photographer and witnessed a lot of things that he has since been able to share with us through the art of special effects make up.
		But it is Savini's directorial debut with the 1990 remake of "Night Of The Living Dead" (Romero had to produce a remake of his own movie due to business reasons of such astounding stupidity music industry executives must have certainly been involved) that shows us what really keeps Tom Savini tickin'.
		Surprisingly less gruesome than might be expected, Savini's "Night Of The Living Dead" differs from Romero's chiefly in its treatment of Barbara, a young woman who witnesses her brother's death at the hands of a zombie in the opening of both films.

	Arrow In The Head's movie review of Vicious: Tom Savini/Kane, Brian Bremer/Doug, Melanie Parker/Barbara
		Tom had a blast with the role, chomping that cigar like a man, playing quiet psychotic to a T, delivering those one liners with class and kicking some occasional ass.
		Tom Savini (Kane) was the sole high point here with his bang-on delivery and potent charisma.
		Tom Savini is too good for crud like this and with that other stinker “Children of the Living Dead” under his belt, I’m starting to wonder if he knows it.

	Tom Savini
		Of course, Savini was already horror royalty from his special effects work on such seminal splatter classics as Dawn of the Dead, Friday the 13th, Creepshow and a whole host of others.
		But as Savini was phasing out of the FX side of his career in the late '80s, his directing work was on the ascent.
		Unfortunately, while I think Savini pulled off an excellent film under difficult circumstances and his version of NOTLD deservedly has its own fan following today, at the time it was not a rousing success and Savini's directing career was abruptly put on hold.
