“I don’t recognize you in makeup”: actors and actresses of horror films in character and in everyday life (10 photos)

Modern technologies make it possible to “draw” any monster. However, in order for us to believe more in what is happening on the screen, monsters and beasts still need to be played by an actor. Naturally, under such a layer of makeup, even his own mother would not recognize the actor. It’s especially funny that the actors and actresses who play such terrible creatures are very nice and smiling in everyday life. There is nothing in common with their on-screen heroes.
