SLEEPAWAY FX WORKSHOP

Here you will get a look at some of the stunning creations that FX-Master Ed French created for SLEEPAWAY CAMP. Ed has worked in the make-up/special effects business for over 2 decades now. And as a matter of fact, SLEEPAWAY CAMP was one of his first serious gigs! His brutally realistic and well detailed props helped create some of the most unforgettable death sequences in cinema history. Over the years, Ed has done work on a variety of films such as the cult horror/comedy DEADTIME STORIES (1985) and the mega-blockbuster: TERMINATOR 2: JUDGEMENT DAY. Ed was also nominated for an oscar for his incredible effects work on the film: STAR TREK VI.


Here's a photo of Ed from FANGORIA back in 1983.

Here's Ed's frighteningly realistic "Dead Kenny" prop.


This is Ed's "Dead Billy" head. Ahhh, so that's what it looks like under all those bees!!


...and a longer view.

A nice Gruesome look at Chris Collet's decapitation.


…and a close-up of the mangled neck!!


Here's a look at Felissa Rose undergoing plaster surgery! Ed made a plaster mask of ANGELA'S face which was worn by a naked college man in the climactic final scene!
