POST MORTEM: Rick Baker - Part 3

Continuing his chat with Mick Garris, Rick Baker talks about his early work on films like THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITTMAN (1974), SQUIRM (1976) and the remake of KING KONG (1976); and his groundbreaking SFX designs for AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON (1981).

Rick Baker, a true modern master. Thanks for carrying the torch and inspiring the next generation Rick.

It really makes me feel good to hear that the Man, Rick Baker actually prefers the anthropoid lycanthrope to the four-legged kind, and would have rather done that in An American Werewolf in London. It's why I actually preferred the werewolves in The Howling! Listening to his story, and the people in so many of these interviews, reminds me of my own childhood. We're the weird kids! Only difference is that I didn't grow up to be a famous make-up effects artist or writer-director, but enjoyed the fruits of the minds of these geniuses, which is perfectly fine with me.
