I so didn't want to be interviewed that day and I think it shows. Sorry. Boy they are sure showing a lot in that french dubbed clip pretty soon if they keep showing much more you won't have to go to the cinema to see the film. Not long now before it opens, I hope you guys enjoy the film. Oh yes, Kess you asked if it was fun to be in the film.Yes it was fun and painfull. That damn werewolf kept knocking me down over and over. Is that any way to treat an old man?

LOL Rick, glad to hear that it was fun and BTW, I'm sure Jack is looking down and giving you the thumbs up, the Wolfman make-up is awesome! True about all these clips, but I'll be seeing it at mid-night when it opens no matter how much I've seen, and I'm pretty sure I'll be seeing it the next morning too. BTW, has the running time been announced yet? Kess

Since my busy school/work schedule won't allow me to do a midnight, Friday or even Saturday show without dying of exhaustion, I feel extremely fortunate and grateful. This film is really my personal movie event of the year (as well as being the only one I really want to see, besides maybe IRON MAN 2,) and the huge monster fan in me just couldn't wait!

I am looking forward to it and I think this has the potential to be the type of movie the classic horror fans have been waiting for for years. Lets hope the CG stuff that the film makers have used doesn't become a distraction. The make up is outstanding and overall the wolf man looks really frightening. Hopefully, this starts a trend for Hollywood. If this movie is a huge success filmmakers may take a more serious look at the old school horror techniques when making future horror films.

Is the Wolfman a stunt-man in that scene or is he CGI and you were pulled by a bungee, knowing how these things were done has always intrigued me. Kess

Feb 2 10 12:27 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Okay, that cut was really cool. Thanks for the link. I certainly brings up this point: if Sir John is indeed a lycanthrope as speculated in my own stupid imagination, did he get bit along the way? Because he could not have been a werewolf ancestrally, I don't think, or the Talbots would have been turning into wolves a ways back? Any thoughts on this, anyone?

I was wearing a harness with a rope tied to one side and at the appropriate time a stunt guy gave it a good tug. Later in post they sped up the fall and added a CGwolf blur.

Feb 2 10 8:37 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Rick, To echo others, I honestly have not looked forward to a film this much, well probably ever. I think the look of the Wolfman is fantastic. Were you also responsible for the victims and character make-up also? As a fan- thanks for your contribution to this movie. The Universal Classics are by far my favorites, and Chaney, Jr. in The Wolfman is my favorite character in film, period- I have the tattoo to prove it. I am 30, so I like the 80's FX films, a golden age of FX in it's own right; you guys know what I'm talking about. This looks like it could be the best of both worlds.

My main contribution was the wolfman make up. Because the film was done in England with an English crew I partnered with my friend Dave Elsey who not only helped with the wolfman make up but also headed up the blood and guts department. When we came back for reshoots some new blood and guts were handled by Neil Gordon. Dave and I were just way too busy and had no time in the reshoots to concentrate on anything but the wolfman shots. Neil also did what everyone is referring to the Gollum make up. Don't ask. The transformations were done by the CG guys headed up by Steve Begg, utilizing some of my ideas and designs but with a lot of their own input. I am really curious to hear what everyone thinks about the movie.

Feb 2 10 9:11 PM Burgomaster Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	The first press previews are beginning tonight (at least here in D.C.). Wish I was there to see Rick's work but soon, I hope! We're going to move this thread to Current Films shortly. And so cool to have Rick Baker, a Monster Kid indeed, here at the CHFB during this very shared genre experience that is upon all of us. david

Feb 2 10 9:55 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Rick I think the Wolfman looks amazing, vicious, dangerous and so primal, I can't wait to see the film, finally! I am just very pleased that they chose you to do this film, it was a wise move on they're part. I didn't think you looked or seemed agitated with that interview, but that's me. I was reading MAKEUP ARTIST magazine, and wanted to ask how tall was Benicio (aka. The Wolfman) when in full makeup/costume? I also like the idea that you can see Benicio under the makeup, it reminds me of the Werewolf films of Paul Naschy and Oliver Reed's Wolfman. Which you could still see the actor/character within the makeup, very clever. Did you save anything from this movie? As memorbilia for your own personal portfolio. If this movie is a success, (which I hope it is) and with Universal, hopefully wanting to make THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON, if you were apporached or not would want to design and create a Gill Man, Rick Baker style!!! Oh one more thing do you plan on doing another horror rock video like you did a recently? That was very cool!

I am really curious to hear what everyone thinks about the movie. Thanks for the info. I know what you mean by the "Golem". Don't know what to make of that. It certainly looks creepy, I just hope it's inclusion is not stupid- I was thinking dream sequence, maybe. Neil does good work. As long as the story is decent, this will be a great movie. Creepy Classics Fan, What is that pic in your avatar? Is that a print? Brian

I am really curious to hear what everyone thinks about the movie. I was very skeptical when I first read that they were going to lean more towards CG transformations; I like what I've seen in clips and trailers so far, but I still have fears and doubts in the back of my mind as to how well the CG will have turned out. That being said, no matter how good or bad the final film turns out to be I think we all agree that it's already clear that one of the strongest points (if not the strongest) of this movie is your makeup and design on the wolf man. Your work alone will definitely inspire another generation of monster fans, and help ensure that there are always both established and aspiring filmmakers telling these kinds of stories. (It may take some of us a shorter or longer time to get into making our own features, but there are definitely those of us out here who hope to keep offering you the chance to create creature and makeup designs for years and years to come. ) Who else is watching clips and trailers over and over throughout each day? I just keep watching the end of that french clip when he slashes the guy and I can't even begin to contain my excitement! www.kirkbyoung.com

Feb 3 10 4:28 PM Burgomaster Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Press and special previews have begun . Two colleagues saw the film and had mixed reactions as to plot and such. But one told me, "the transformations were 10 plus -- loved them!'' The colleague who 'gets' genre films was more enthusiastic than the other. Anyhow, I for one can't wait to see this. david Last Edited By: taraco Feb 3 10 4:55 PM. Edited 2 times.
