Actor Robert Englund is best known for his role as the killer Freddy Krueger. Englund gave up this role several years ago. Now he is back in the Makeup chair to show fans the process he had to undergo to become this nightmare villain in this new documentary movie, Nightmares in the Makeup Chair.
In this documentary, Englund takes fans of the series on a journey through the years of Freddy with his stories and anecdotes. He pays tribute to horror master mind and director Wes Craven. Englund will be interviewed by Rich Koz, Svengoolie.
Robert Englund says, “NIGHTMARES IN THE MAKEUP CHAIR is my love letter to the Nightmare on Elm Street series and to practical makeup. I’ve always been in awe of the multi-talented makeup effects artists. From sketching to sculpting, they realize the design. Then to the fine precision of the molding and the manufacturing of the makeup appliances which are nearly paper thin. And then, the application process where I sit in the makeup chair and I become their living canvas as they glue me in and paint the appliances. This documentary not only captures their talent, but I think it might inspire a new generation of practical effects artists. I was happy to become Freddy once again to share the makeup process with the fans.” (horrorfreaknews)
