He was stored in a sealed container of Trioxin for years, and when it bursted open in the beginning of the movie, his mummified skin reacticed with the oxygen and melted.
@Ghlan Return of the Living Dead is one of the best movies. It was intentionally comedic by the director to contrast with Romero's social commentary themes (Dan O'Bannon didn't want to step on Romero's toes).
It is interesting that the Tarman costume was covered in gel, so it was actually quite slippery. In the scene where he takes on Suicide (search youtube for "best of tarman"), he is sliding on the floor and the actor is struggling not to fall.
Actually zombies have a lesser brain and digestive system, just most of their body is undergoing rigor mortis so the digestive and neural processes they have would be very limited. For examply, the brain they have relies on basic instinct: eat, sleep, and maybe even fuck, I'm not sure on that one. They wouldn't get high because they don't know what anything is. They just know the difference between food and not food. Of course raw flesh is its food.
I don't know who's zombies your talking about (sounds like Mr.Romero's) but in this film it states that the zombies eat brains because it hearts to be dead NOT basic instinct. In RotLD part 3 it shows that the "fresher" zombies can even try to resist the pain. These zombies are far more intelligent.
lol tarman walks in like WAZZZ UP? PPL then hit head hits the floor rofl i used to be scared of this now i tihnk its so funny how the black dude throws a fking bucket at him he shoulda let him eat his dinner :((( ^.^
@gadget609 There are black Latinos Dumb ass!!!!! All of the Caribbean was colonized with African slaves. Hence Afro-Cubans etc. He is Afro-Puerto Rican!!!
I have 2 questions one is how did he get pass the third step which is broken and what is the noise when Tarman gets his head knocked off. Well its an 80's movie and that is how they do zombie movies back then so you have to give them credit.
Tarman is the best zombie in any movie he's fucking rotten,
He needs to get more brains, every time he's appears he gets the shit kick out of him....
poor old tarman, killed, resurrected, stuffed in a barrel, paint can to the back, head knocked off with a base ball bat, then stuffed back in to another barrel for the next film, then he's released and beaten up again by a kid,
That would be awesome. I can just imagine in a video game crossover of Resident Evil and Return of the Living Dead Nemesis teaming up with Tarman ( now fortified) going around attacking STARS for their BRAINZ.
Oh well, he can use his gnarly ass teeth then LOL Like Chramin ultra, with zombies, less is more. They look way cooler in this movie then in modern day ones.

Quick tip for new players: When angry man plans to knock Tarman's head off, don't stand in probable path of flying head.

Actually zombies have a lesser brain and digestive system, just most of their body is undergoing rigor mortis so the digestive and neural processes they have would be very limited. For examply, the brain they have relies on basic instinct: eat, sleep, and maybe even fuck, I'm not sure on that one. They wouldn't get high because they don't know what anything is. They just know the difference between food and not food. Of course raw flesh is its food.
