PLOT SUMMARY

A documentary on the life and works of Tom Savini.

A worthy documentary / biography on which helped to establish Tom Savini as the superstar of make up effects. Plenty of interviews with Savini himself and those who have worked with him and a plethora of clips make it worthwhile even for those who remain to be converted to the Savini cult.
