Did CGI kill Tom Savini?
When CGI came along, Tom Savini career fade off...
I know he's a douche bag at conventions
He does have a poor reputation with many horror fans...i should add that he was in some Hellish situations during the Vietnam conflict so...i cut him a lot of slack for his service (id probably be freaked out and grouchy too)
As a pretty avid horror fan i must say i seek out the films with practical SFX...the CGI just looks stupid and super fake to me
I loved the spurting dummies and make up effects...
CGI stinks!
That is why I love old horror movies 1920's up to 1990's...Filmmakers had to used their imagination with the camera.
When I watch silent films, I pay attention on how the trick was done..
Exactly
American Werewolf in London is a case in point
We can pick apart the transformation scene effects...but there were real artists and an actor involved...it was perfectly frightening!
Savini's body of work in SFX easily rivals the CGI crap we get today
Savini is a legend
Do they served coffee at the Slaugher Lamb?
