There are not a lot of visual effects in the film to do with our makeup unless it’s gags. That’s a great combination of practical and visual effects. I think the gnarliest moment I did was the cheese grater. Which gnarly effect was, in your mind, one of the toughest moments to sell? Whereas you could also take a head that’s not perfect, but if it’s got really good eyes that look wet and have that depth, then it kind of sells better. There’s something about the gloss of an eye and the depth, like the pupil, that if it is a cheap eye or it doesn’t look right, the whole head looks wrong. We literally do a photo-quality print of the eyes. These days we cheat a bit and mostly print it. Back in the day, they used to be hand-painted to match. Generally, we’ll take a very high-definition photo up close. Caption: GABRIELLE ECHOLS as Bridget in New Line Cinema’s horror film “EVIL DEAD RISE,” a Warner Bros. With a face, it has to look exactly like that person, or it’s going to look fake. An arm, a leg, anything like that, those body parts are kind of generic. Eyes especially make or break a fake head. But there are subtle changes happening even the weight of the material that we use for the impression pulls the face down a bit. It has to look like that person, so we do life-casting of that person where we make a copy of their face. What is the hardest part of the body to create for a horror movie?Ī head, for sure.
Obviously, you’re dealing with a lot of limbs in this movie. Recently, Lucas told us about splashing buckets of blood around-a whole lot more-in Evil Dead Rise. It’s crazy, but I wouldn’t want anything else.” “I’ve been very lucky to do what I do,” Lucas says, “and it still doesn’t make sense to me sometimes that I get paid to make monsters and throw blood around. In addition to Evil Dead Rise, he’s worked on an Alien prequel and a Mad Max film. Based in Australia, Lucas dreamed of working on horror movies thanks to the likes of Sam Raimi’s original Evil Dead, so the job was a nightmare come true. Senior makeup FX & prosthetic artist Tristan Lucas is one of the artists responsible for the horrific delights on display, including a stellar cheese grater sequence you have to see to believe. Most of the body horror in director Lee Cronin’s film is tangible, not computer generated, the work of talented artists at the top of their gore game.
BLOOD SPLATTER BANNER EFFECT FULL
The fifth installment in the horror franchise is a bloodbath of riches, full of wondrous practical effects and makeup. Evil Dead Rise keeps the spirit of the franchise alive by conjuring the living dead in the most emphatically gnarly way.
