The Effects of the FX of Greg Nicotero

Horror legend Greg Nicotero is LIVE at Spooky Empire with Chris Jericho! Greg talks growing up as a monster-obsessed kid hanging around Tom Savini and George A. Romero, landing his first real job on Day of the Dead, and the massive fork-in-the-road decision that led him to choose Evil Dead 2 over Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 — and helped launch KNB! He breaks down what really happened behind the scenes of Evil Dead 2, how slapstick chaos met extreme horror, and why that movie still inspires filmmakers today. Greg also shares incredible stories from working with Quentin Tarantino on Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Death Proof, Inglourious Basterds, and Django Unchained, explains why Tarantino lets your imagination do the damage, and reveals the on-set philosophy that made him one of the most trusted collaborators in Hollywood. And of course, it’s zombies: Greg talks creating the iconic Walking Dead look, transitioning from effects to directing major episodes, the emotional toll of the Negan lineup, and the one zombie effect that helped put the entire series on the map! Plus, Greg’s thoughts on The Mist ending that still divides fans!
