George A. Romero and Martin Landau

George A. Romero has died.  He quite literally changed horror movies and even added touches of sci fi into them.  There would be no Evil Dead comic or TV series nor hundreds of other zombie related movies if not for his influence.


And Martin Landau. Commander John Koenig of Moon Base Alpha in Space 1999. Germany had Raumpatrouille Orion and Australia Phoenix 5 and the US Star Trek...Space 1999 is fondly remembered around the world.  Or...was he Bela Lugosi in Ed Wood?        

A great movie maker and a great actor who will not be forgotten.
