EZ-Plastic
head of the Tall Man for PHANTASM 3. The head was cut into sections,
seams mended with Kleen Klay, then the head was mounted face-down. The
camera faced up. To get the effect of a sphere exploding from the face,
a weighted model of the sphere was dropped through the head, shattering
the face sections.

Ed
Gale, crawling dwarf, PHANTASM 2. Full foam latex suit. I sculpted the
head and hands and painted the suit. Bob Kurtzman and I sculpted the
body suit in two hours because we were so hungry to go out to dinner.
Luckily, since Ed is only 3' 4" we made our two hour deadline.
Ed later went on to be Çhucky in CHILDS PLAY.

Animatronic
head of Tall Man, PHANTASM 2. Actor James LeGros played the entire
scene with this head, all shot in close-ups.

PHANTASM
2. Tall Man melting. I super-glued real chicken skins onto his neck
appliance. This took some doing, since the skins are so greasy. I had
to wash them in detergent for 30 minutes first. That's Ultraslime on
his hand.

EZ
Plastic head getting prepped with ice effects. I used Gary
Zeller&';s ZICE and white paraffin blown through a bee smoker.
Don't ask me who iced the costume...
Karin Hanson hand-tied the excellent wig and eyebrows.
