The Ultimate GAR quiz

[Andy]

One person posts a question, next person answers it and posts the next question, and so on.

Simple.

I'll start, Name the members of the Image 10 group that made NOTLD.

[capncnut]

George A. Romero, John Russo, Russell Streiner, Karl Hardman and Marilyn Eastman.

Okay, name the make and model of the car used in the mall from Dawn of the Dead.

[HLS]

I am pretty darn sure it was a Chevrolet Chevette Hatchback. The reason I think so is I just watched the clip and it looks exactly like the car I was riding in when I was in a car pileup accident in the 70's that ironically happened right in front of that mall. That is if your referring to the car they drove inside the mall. If I am wrong skip my question.

My question is Tom Savini played more than one role in Dawn of the dead. How many characters did he play?

Yes, it is the car they drive in the mall but no, wrong answer.

Well i may be mistaken but did not he play a character in the beginning that got shot dead. At that scene at the apartments then when ithe bikers invaded the mall he played one or more of the biker parts. I did not think of it as him just doing stunts. it looked like he was doing more than one role. in general if someone is just doing a stunt you can not obviously tell who the person doing the stunt is.

He only played one role and that was Blades, everything else was either a stunt or a zombie getting it's head blown off. He wasn't even in the apartments at the beginning. :confused:
