When Aaron hacked that zombie I was like "THATS THE ZOMBIE THAT GOT MACHETIED IN DAWN OF THE DEAD!" and my BF was all "Huh?"
I had a book about all the make up effects of Tom Savini when I was a kid and it had a write up of how they did that effect. I watched it many, many times. Backwards, slow motion, etc.. :) I wanted to be a make-up guy so much. :(
Upside is it inspired me to hunt down the book on amazon and buy it again. :) #midlifecrisis

I haven't ever made anything, but it's something I've developed an interest in.
I bought this book by Tom Savini
He's my all time favorite SFX artist so I figured it would be a good place to start.
