"This biography explores the many talents of the young Peter Jackson and the making of Bad Taste, Meet the Feebles, Braindead, Heavenly Creatures, Forgotten Silver, The Frighteners, and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Pryor looks at the story behind the Rings, explaining how Jackson got the rights and funding to make three films rather than collapsing the story into just one or two films. He also includes interviews and other behind-the-scenes material from the making of those landmark films. In addition to looking at the director's past achievements, the author also considers Jackson's remake of King Kong, as well as other possible future endeavors." "From casts of zombies, traumatized puppets, and murderous teenagers to deal-making in Hollywood, this book is about following one's visions wherever they might lead."--BOOK JACKET.
