In This EpisodeEpisode Description:Following their hugely successful Masters of Make-Up Effects, Oscar-winning make-up effects artist Howard Berger and veteran film journalist Marshall Julius emerge from the shadows to continue their Hollywood Monsters odyssey with their next book, Making Monsters, an oral history of the monsters who made us and the magicians who made them.In a spellbinding, devilishly detailed compendium of never-before-seen photographs and candid recollections from more than 80 film and television visionaries, Making Monsters pries open the crypt to expose the twisted geniuses that dreamed the nightmares, the hands that stitched the beasts, and the blood-bound Monster Kid community determined to keep the flame alive. With a welcome from dream demon Robert Englund and a final word from Lost Boys Alex Winter, along with wicked original art by Jason Edmiston, Graham Humphreys, Mark Tavares and Terry Wolfinger, Hollywood’s most iconic creatures come to life as Berger and Julius forge craft with camaraderie, inviting readers onto the set and behind the scenes.ResourcesBuy Making MonstersMaking Monsters MerchLearn more about upcoming Making Monsters signingsJoin our occasional newsletter ‘Looking Forward’JOIN FILM REVIEW’S CLASSIC MOVIE CLUBAdditional Notes:Music: Hollywood Hop, Earl Hines and His New Sound Orchestra (LA, Jul, 1954) CC0 1.0 UniversalCreative Commons License
