They’re us, that’s all, when there’s no more room in hell.
People say that my interest in gore began because I was a combat photographer back in Vietnam. I saw horrible shit, but it wasn’t my interest in gore, it was my interest in makeup. Vietnam was like a lesson in anatomy where I got the gore right. The blood had to be the perfect colour, the next day it turns brown; I learned a lot. That’s where I got my reputation for realism because of what I saw in Vietnam. But I think it was just my interest in makeup that led to me being called the King of Splatter. - Tom Savini
