This is a documentary on one of the the greatest special effects men ever to work in the business of movies....Tom Savini.
This covers his life from a child growing up in Pittsburgh, going thru school, going into Vietnam and coming out a very different man and then finally finding his niche in movie make-up.
Of course we hear from many people who have worked with him including John Amplas, George Romero, Tom Atkins and many, many more. We also get to hear from his daughter which really gives us insight to the man, not just the image.
There are plenty of great clips from movies Tom has worked on and some of his home made movies as well. If you're a Savini fan, this is a MUST see piece of cinema.
I enjoyed it a lot but then I have always admired Savini since I first saw "Dawn Of The Dead" and "Martin" back in the day. Go to Shudder if tyou want to see this. Yes, this is a somewhat short write-up, but I really don't want to give too much away.
