makeover
just like my skin is a muffin welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
makeup effects in movies based on comics
did you just for this list we’re taking
a look at seemingly unfilmable comic
book characters that were brought to
life through innovative makeup artistry
Mike McCoy we’re excluding those that
have been enhanced by computer effects
life Hugo weavings red skull in Captain
America the First Avenger you don’t give
up do ya number 10 the crow the crow are
you some kind of ghost when Eric Draven
is murdered the rocker is reborn as an
angel of vengeance that could give
Marilyn Manson a run for his money in
the makeup department I so I’m sure
above face though modeling his new look
after a Harlequin mask
Eric transforms himself into a gothic
terror with a soulless white face black
slashes across his eyes and lipstick
that just cries out kiss of death
victims aren’t we all
his awesomely spooky appearance has made
the crow an especially popular character
to dress as for Halloween or on any
given day if you’re a regular hot topic
shopper ID she tell me story a man and
woman in law a year ago
like sure you’ll remember you killed him
on Halloween yeah yeah Halloween yeah
some do some bitch whatever man number 9
jigsaw Punisher war zone from now on you
owe me jigsaw Billy the Butte Rizzo D
earns the alias of jigsaw after our
titular hero disfigures him in a glass
crusher although a plastic surgeon does
what he can to patch him up he can only
do so much with a puzzle that’s missing
some of its significant pieces looking
like the mutilated offspring of
Frankenstein the only thing more scarred
and repulsive than jigsaws face is his
mind which is dead set on punishing the
Punisher and at the end of it The
Punisher will be dead he might be
horrific ly ugly but more than makes up
for it with one classy wardrobe what do
you say Frank who’s it to be your fat
friend right here for that nice little
piece of jailbait over there now
number eight our Sin City franchise yeah
well look Mickey Rourke’s already pretty
beat up face was taken to new levels of
grit to play Marv in Sin City
you really are pushing your luck the
Padres even make garbage like that the
spitting image of Frank Miller’s artwork
this a bitch lowlights mug is like a
brick wall you can punch it stab it
shoot at it but nothing tears it down
the best you can do you pants is covered
in scars and with a bird-like nose Marv
doesn’t have much luck at attracting the
ladies she was murdered and I was right
here when it happened he has visibly
attracted a fair deal of opponents
though likely having a body count
equivalent of the number of scratches on
his body at a fight wish cops didn’t
happen to kill on you
not that I know of they know they’ve
been in a fight that you’re damn sure
number seven all of the mob villains
Dick Tracy hi ma’am
some gangsters get their nicknames
through their heinous actions well a
little right most of the ones in Dick
Tracy however are named after their
unfortunate facial disfigurements blood
Nugent cops
the villains leap right out of the
comments and into the physical world
with the appearance of live action
cartoon characters
yeah challenge me we all go dumb there
was one Napoleon one Washington one me
winning an Oscar for Best Makeup John
Taglioni jr. and Doug Drexler assemble a
whole mob of diverse baddies like the
brow little face flattop and proof base
your fortune teller what do you mean the
future complacent what I mean is the
future it’s me who would have thought
that out of all of them Al Pacino’s big
boy would end up being the most
attractive together we will own this
town number six the thing Fantastic Four
franchise being mostly reliant on lazy
CGI 2005’s Fantastic Four failed
miserably in creating a convincing mr.
fantastic Invisible Woman
or Human Torch what about having a
normal life the only member of the
foursome we actually believed was really
there was the thing
who the filmmakers thankfully gave a
more practical touch that’s right keep
running booboo hidden under sixty pounds
of latex Michael Chiklis turned into the
topless rock Titan look good a view
problem the only feature he retains from
his human appearance are his bright blue
eyes but of course if you ask Johnny
Storm the rocky exterior is an
improvement I didn’t turn into a monster
number five clown slashed the violator
spawn now stay sharp then that is John
while spawn himself is an impressive
achievement in makeup clown easily takes
the cake
Hey usually with that face I’m eating
you’d never guess in a million years
that it’s John Leguizamo in a fat suit
as the demon leads spawn down the path
of evil pretty soon you’re gonna get
hair in funny places you know I start
thinking about girls happen getting a
chubby studly possessing shape-shifting
abilities the clown regularly assumes a
stumpy sumo wrestler body hellish eyes
rad
and a face painted blue I hate you can
sing miss don’t jo makeup artist David
Lee Roy Anderson of the Nutty Professor
and Men in Black was the perfect person
to mold this chubby grotesque creature
into slimy reality sort of an insurance
policy from hell the good hands people
number four the Joker The Dark Knight
ever doesn’t kill you simply makes him a
stranger in Tim Burton’s Batman Jack
Nicholson’s Clown Prince of Crime was
permanently mutilated with white skin
green hair and a haunting smile Joker
Christopher Nolan took a different
approach in the Dark Knight hiring John
kagwe onei jr. and Connor O’Sullivan to
paint a Joker that could exist in the
real world why so serious with scars
across his mouth and clown makeup
carelessly smeared on his face Heath
Ledger wears the mask of sheer evil is
it the scars no no how I caught him it’s
a fitting face to accompany a symbol of
anarchy and terror that perfectly
parallels Batman symbol for justice I’m
gonna make this pencil disappear number
three the penguin Batman Returns my name
is Oswald its penguin you ever hear the
phrase a face only a mother could love
well not even oswald cobblepot’s mother
could look past her child’s vile
exterior
given his twisted stubby form its
tragically ironic that he was abandoned
and raised by penguins in Gotham sewers
Danny DeVito was born to play the
penguin a sadist that sounds who’s never
more animalistic with his beak nose pale
skin and razor-sharp teeth things change
leave it to Tim Burton to take a
character as outlandish as the penguin
and make him even more bizarre number
two mystique Nightcrawler feast and
Azazel x-men franchise the x-men movies
have envisioned so many unique mutants
made possible through makeup that we
couldn’t just single out one of course
the most iconic of the bunch is miss
Steele who’s naked scaly body is draped
in blue latex and airbrush paint they
say you can imitate anybody over the
years various makeup artists have
treated us to other characters like the
hairy beasts the demonic Nightcrawler
and even more demonic Azazel
the fact that real people are under all
that makeup really adds a human element
which ties nicely into the themes of
this franchise
before we set our topic down in the
makeup chair here are a few honorable
mentions
except
have I ever the record team hi I’m Fe
Angie’s born of Sparta number one
Hellboy Hellboy franchise I wish I could
be more gracious llamo del Toro’s
Hellboy films have produced an entire
golden army of distinctive creatures
like the fishing Abe Sapien the standout
however has got to be the title
character my prosthetic makeup effects
and Ron Perlman’s down-to-earth
performance made for a flawless fusion
to create a creature who’s one-half
satanic brute the other half laid-back
dude what are you boys watching these
films you’d never think of Hellboy as
just a big guy painted red with a fake
giant arm you believe that he’s the real
deal and the real definition of movie
makeup magic

decision what makeup effects made your
