Paul M. Sammon's distinctive career can best be described by the film industry expression "hyphenate."
As a writer, Sammon has published numerous articles, short stories and books. His many film journalism pieces have seen print in The American Cinematographer, Cahiers du Cinema, The Los Angeles Times, Omni, Cinefex, and Cinefantastique. Sammon's fiction has appeared in Peter Straub's Ghosts (1995), and he recently edited both the 1994 "dead Elvis" anthology The King Is Dead plus the "no limits" anthologies Splatterpunks: Extreme Horror and Splatterpunks II: Over the Edge (1995).
But Paul M. Sammon does not only write about movies--he works in them as well. He first entered the industry as a publicist in the late 1970s, before moving on as a second-unit director, special effects coordinator, still photographer, electronic press kit producer, and Vice President of Special Promotions. Some of the scores of motion pictures on which Sammon has labored include RoboCop, Platoon, Blue Velvet, Conan the Barbarian, and The Silence of the Lambs.
By the late 1980s, Sammon was working in Japanese television, where he coproduced popular entertainment programs like Hello! Movies for the TV Asahi network. By the 1990s, Sammon had served as Computer Graphics Supervisor for RoboCop 2; he recently was Digital and Optical Effects Supervisor for 1995's XTRO: Watch the Skies.
Despite this background, however, Sammon still likes nothing better than sitting down with a good movie. And Blade Runner remains one of his favorite films.

文风不是太喜欢,但内容面面俱到且大多一手素材确实厉害;我读得最过瘾的居然是从work print到director's cut诞生这几章,各种政治角斗参杂让我终于明了为啥斯格特不把它当真正的导演剪辑版;FINAL CUT影碟几十个钟头的花絮素材都没真正去说这些事

许多人奉献了自己的天才,尤其是导演,但它不属于某一个人。甚至不属于某个工业体系,不属于某种人类智慧和情感。相反,这些东西属于《银翼杀手》。一切好的道路通向它,在这里交汇。谁让它成真的?

We couldn't go to find Tyrell, but Tyrell... 2010.必须连附录都看完才叫看完的书。“We all have a maker, and we all have an incept date. We just can't address them.
