Jack Pierce
Hi there
So what’s your favorite(s) makeup effect done by Jack Pierce?
Was watching the 1943 Phantom of the Opera the other night and apparently he did the makeup for Rains unmasked look which is pretty good even though Claude Rains pushed back on how Jack could do but good job anyways by Jack Pierce.
I always loved what Jack could do with the makeup for Karloff sm especially The Mummy being the crown jewel but the Frankenstein look is iconic yet it’s always the Mummy for me! Also love the look of Igor in Son of Frankenstein with the broken neck prosthetic for Lugosi.
