Of all the filmmakers who get referred to as masters of the horror genre, my absolute favorite is NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD director George A. Romero. It's his films that strike the strongest chord with me, and in my opinion the fifteen year stretch in which he made THE CRAZIES, MARTIN, DAWN OF THE DEAD, KNIGHTRIDERS, CREEPSHOW, DAY OF THE DEAD, and MONKEY SHINES is one of the most impressive, awe-inspiring runs of quality a filmmaker can have.
Fangoria is now honoring Romero with an incredibly adorable collector's item, a plush doll made in his familiar image:
Bring the master of horror home with this softer-than-a-ghoul's-guts Official George A. Romero plushie!
The iconic director of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, DAWN OF THE DEAD and CREEPSHOW is not only one of the most celebrated filmmakers of all time, he also has an instantly recognizable look. That vest, that hair, that smile… those giant glasses! All are reproduced faithfully in this cuddly, awesome 14 inch plush doll… the PERFECT stocking stuffer for the horror fan in your household!
Whoever thought this up was a genius.
If you would like to own a tiny, cuddly version of Romero, it will set you back $60 at the Fangoria store.
