yeah sure it’s a great movie but we only
want to know one thing
who’s behind that mask people have to be
told
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
face reveals in movies the star for this
list we’re looking at movie scenes where
a mysterious character finally unveils
his or her face perhaps they’re hiding
in the dark maybe they’re wearing a mask
or maybe they’re just really really shy
boy
either way we want to know what they
really look like however we’re skipping
scenes like this one from gladiator my
name is Maximus Decimus Meridius
commander of the armies of the North
General of the Felix legions loyal
servant to the true Emperor Marcus
Aurelius sure it’s awesome
but while Commodus is surprised the
audience already knows what Maximus
looks like a heads up there are some
major spoilers ahead so spoiler alert
number 10 will the real jigsaw please
stand up saw hello Amanda
you don’t know me but I don’t blame the
horror genre is jam-packed with
memorable face reveals like this big
bloody twist at the end of saw in this
splatter film spectacle a murderer
called the jigsaw killer is putting his
victims into the nastiest traps
imaginable but we never get a good look
at his face
pay no attention to that comatose cancer
patient throughout the film we see
jigsaws handiwork people mention his
name and we’re pretty sure he’s the guy
in the pig mask that is until that dead
guy picks himself up off the floor
number nine Blofeld revealed You Only
Live Twice play caught in their twist
target to the good James Bond has some
pretty unforgettable foes but double o
sevens number one enemy is definitely
Ernst Stavro Blofeld you made a mistake
my friend no astronaut would enter the
capsule carrying his air conditioner
remove his helmet as head of Spectre
Blofeld has shown up in six films played
by six different actors but while he’s
bonds biggest baddie
Blofeld remained hidden for his first
two films and it wasn’t until you only
live twice that the cat-loving villains
finally showed his face James Bond allow
me to introduce myself I am Ernst Stavro
Blofeld actor Donald Pleasence actually
came up with that grotesque scar after
passing on a hump a beard and on a lame
hand thanks to us you only live twice Mr
Bond
number eight years Jason Friday the 13th
part 3 mother is talking to you
after sporting a sack in the sequel
Jason Vorhees changed his look for part
three by donning his now trademark
hockey mask in the third entry it’s
business as usual as the faceless Jason
murders a bunch of teenagers only in 3d
in the film’s gory showdown heroine
Chris Higgins knocks Jason out with a
shovel and tries to hang him high only
Jason isn’t quite dead and decides to
show off his ugly mug now that’s a face
only a psychopathic murdering mom could
love number 7 taking off the hood South
Park
bigger Longer & uncut even though Kenny
mckormick is one of South Park’s most
famous characters we never actually see
his whole face well not until the movie
anyway I’ll bet you $100 you can’t light
a fire on fire after dying once again
Kenny ends up in hell but after giving
Satan some relationship advice he’s able
to wish away a war between canada and
america but in doing so he dams himself
to eternal torment before he returns to
hell Kenny gives fans a long-awaited
look at the boy behind hood
goodbye you guys don’t worry he always
comes back eventually
number six later unmasked Star Wars
Episode six Return of the Jedi help me
take this mask off the cape is cool and
the lightsaber clearly awesome but
people always remember the mask
it gave Darth Vader his robotic breath
and made him sound like James Earl Jones
the Death Star will be completed on
schedule for two movies the deep space
supervillain kept his face hidden but we
finally got a good look in Return of the
Jedi after sticking its be Emperor Vader
asks Luke to remove his helmet revealing
an injured old man let me look on you
with my own eyes without the mask Luke
sees his father’s true face and Vader
finally becomes more than a machine
number five one ugly mother red-eared
make a stand now whether we be nobody
left to go to the choppa here’s a sci-fi
slasher complete with an uber creepy
mask a big-game hunter from outer space
the predator winds up in Central America
stalking a gang of gun-toting commandos
led by Alan Dutch Schaffer for most of
the movie the alien is nearly invisible
but when the mercenaries get a glimpse
he’s sporting a slick hunting mask
complete with thermal imaging but
several dead bodies later the predator
challenge is Dutch to hand-to-hand
combat and finally removes his maps
revealing the scariest pair of mandibles
you’ve probably ever see
number four meeting Miss Bates psycho
she was always bad and in the end he
intended to tell them I kill those girls
she isn’t mother of the Year material
but Norma Bates can certainly scare an
audience
that’s especially impressive as she’s
hidden for most of the film you hear her
voice see her silhouette and did she
just kill the main character
but it isn’t until the twisty climax
that we see mother’s true face
Alfred Hitchcock tested different
versions of the mrs. Bates prop by
hiding them in Janet Leigh’s dressing
room the louder the scream the scarier
the profit we think she probably
shattered some windows number three
whatever doesn’t kill you the dark night
aha
you want to be a supervillain and you
need some awesome face reveal like this
scene in 1989’s Batman Joker and as you
can see
but while Jack’s appearance was
terrifying it takes second place to
Heath Ledger’s reveal in The Dark Knight
what happens are the rest of the guys
after Batman Begins audience has spent
years waiting for the Clown Prince of
Crime to return gentlemen if that wasn’t
enough suspense we learned the Joker is
a pretty scary-looking guy in the
opening bank heist
I believe whatever doesn’t kill you
simply makes you
stranger sure he had competition from
two-faced but the Joker stole the show
when he took off his mask why so serious
number two not an animal the Elephant
Man
with David Lynch directing and Mel
Brooks producing you wouldn’t expect a
poignant character study but the
Elephant Man certainly tugs at your
heartstrings he is English he is 21
years of age his name is John medic the
film follows a deformed freak show
performer named John Merrick who becomes
a Victorian celebrity Lynch keeps
marriage face a secret at first but when
a nurse stumbles into his hospital room
to get a straight-on shot of the
Elephant Man but even though he’s a
hideous sight Merrick is no made-up
movie monster he’s a real person and he
would be four we unveil our topic here
are a few honorable mentions
step out in the light let’s have a look
at who’s your boss Tom’s progeny new Rob
dine Nancy tapered
that’s come
I can go slower heads come on down and
chump some of this shit
number one the man behind the mask the
Phantom of the Opera
before Gerard Butler charmed his way
into the Paris Opera House lawn Chaney
was frightening audiences with his
freaky face reveal after kidnapping his
crush and hiding her in his subterranean
lair The Phantom lays down some ground
rules namely don’t mess with the mask
but Christine doesn’t listen and the
result was so scary that moviegoers in
1925 allegedly fainted
known as the man of a thousand faces
Cheney used some crazy tricks to make
that horrifying pace including holding
his nose back with wire ow
talk about dedication
