Vic Savage

Vic Savage (August 14, 1933 - May 25, 1975) was an American film director, writer, producer and actor.

Savage was born [Bridgeport Post, Nov. 2, 1961] Arthur Nelson White in Bridgeport, Connecticut, but claimed to have been a Cherokee Indian born in Oklahoma. Savage was also known as A. J. Nelson, Bradley Nichols, A. N. White, Arthur J. White, and Arthur N. White.

In 1959, Savage wrote and produced the film "Street Fighter", which was apparently based on his own brushes with the law as a juvenile and his stay at the Meriden School for Boys in Meriden, Connecticut. Savage also appeared in the movie.

In 1964, Savage directed, produced and starred in "The Creeping Terror", considered one of the worst films of all time. Savage supposedly funded the film by promising investors small parts in the movie. The film's original soundtrack was either destroyed or never recorded, and Savage used a narrator to explain what was happening on screen. Before the film's release, Savage faced several law suits, and vanished, never to work in movies again.
