Tom Savini - Private Tour of His House & School

We spent the day with Tom Savini, the legendary horror special effects master and makeup artist. He gives us a personal behind-the-scenes tour of his school the TOM SAVINI’S SPECIAL MAKEUP EFFECTS PROGRAM, and then takes us deep into his home to see his personal collection of HORROR MOVIE memorabilia and to share stories.
Tom Savini is an American actor, stunt performer, film director, and prosthetic makeup artist. He is known for his makeup and special effects work on many films directed by George A. Romero, including Martin, Dawn of the Dead, Day of the Dead, Creepshow and Monkey Shines; he also created the special effects and makeup for many cult classics like Friday the 13th (parts I and IV), Maniac, The Burning, The Prowler and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2.

@@hunterbrigham2900 Probably different environments. In this video he's at his school and then his home. Places he visits often/lives are bound to make him more relaxed. A place like comicon can be stressful. Not every fan is gonna be respectful and calm. Some will be erratic, embarrassing, or downright rude.

Not saying he was in the right but it's understandable and could be an outlier and not his actual personality.

As a minimalist, I just want to run from all the "stuff" in Tom Savini's house. I appreciate the love for their craft and profession and the need to save all the props but, you need a fair amount of real estate to store everything.

[@memyopinionsche6610]

It's so sad Hollywood going so hard on CGI instead of Prosthetics and latex. It just seems more realistic and looks better.

[@Syklonus]

You only see the bad CGI and assume it's all like that. There is so much CGI in the industry that goes completely unnoticed, and it's an invaluable asset to directors, so it's foolish to make sweeping generalisations like that. It's a tool like anything else, and a tool in the wrong hands will make terrible results, just as a tool in the right hands will make wonderful results. There's been plenty of awful practical FX and makeup over the years, so don't make out that it's some sort of infallible medium that never goes wrong or is always superior to CGI.

[@MrUseless247]

@@Syklonus I kinda agree with you, but in Today's Hollywood CGI seems to be the go to "tool" studios prefer using even if they can't afford it. So we end up with cartoon-ish effects in a movie or show that doesn't require it. I'd rather see bad practical effects than bad CGI. Even when a studio has the budget for decent effects (practical or CGI) it seems they lean more on bad CGI. For example: The Thing 2011.

Wish movies would use more practical effects nowadays....

About twenty five years ago, I was so interested in FX makeup I tracked down Tom Savini's phone number and called his studio to inquire about how to get into it. I don't think he had a school back then and he was so kind to take time out of his busy schedule to speak to some dumb confused twenty something about possibly completely changing his life. He spoke to me for at least half an hour and helped me realize that as much as I loved FX makeup, I probably didn't love it enough to make a life out of it. I will always appreciate the man's kindness and patience for a fan.

Sadly, he is known for doing a lot of gory horror stuff which certainly isn't for everyones taste. Take Day of the Dead for instance, its a very good film (I've had to watch it more than once to appreciate), & the special effects are simply incredible, but the amount of gore in it is really difficult to watch, which turned off a lot of people at the time. He should at least get a lifetime achievement award though.

How amazing was this episode! Tom looking very well for over 70 as well!

[@hihosh1]

The feeling I get from him when he was showing the stuff at his house, was that he was really excited to show his stuff to people who will really appreciate it

Tom Savini seems super cool. The duck story was amazing! What an awesome guy!! God bless him!

Graduates have worked on the following things: "Pretty much everything you watch and enjoy." Edit: in all seriousness, that school is unbelievably cool in design and looks to have a fantastic environment. What an experience to tour it. Thank you for the video.

^^^ What she said ! ^^^^ i jus totally fanboyed out, like near O.D levels. What a total nice guy Tom is ! i had a proper moment when he pointed out and talked of the O.G master, Dick Smith.... think i got something in my eyes. Tom is his true successor for sure.

[@solcutta3661]
