He may no longer be exploding heads and tearing apart bodies on the big screen, but Tom Savini sure hasn’t stopped working in the years since Hollywood largely moved past practical effects and embraced computer-generated splatter. Savini has recently designed a handful of masks for WWE, and this year he even unleashes a line of zombie masks for Halloween.
Also on the makeup master’s plate, we’ve learned this week, is a project that unites Slipknot and Savini. Yes, Tom Savini is designing a brand new mask for Slipknot’s Corey Taylor!
Via Revolver Mag, Taylor revealed this exciting little tidbit in a recent chat with Let There Be Talk, wherein he said of Savini: “He’s the godfather to me.”
Savini has been working on the new mask with his partner Jason Baker.
We’ll of course share images once the mask is revealed!
