Lee Cummings

Lee Cummings owned a fish store in the Pittsburgh area called "Tanks-A-Lot", which was on the front of the New Leona Theater in Homestead, Pennsylvania. He was then hired by George A. Romero to play the Zombie in swimming trunks in Dawn of the Dead (1978). He hurt his legs in real life while his Zombie character got shot in The Bikers' battle in the film itself.
