Tim Burton makes another appearance on the list with his classic Gothic movie ‘Edward Scissorhands’. Not only is this cult film still enjoyed by audiences all over the world, it’s the first of many collaborations between Burton and principal actor Johnny Depp, which has led to plenty of other movies afterward.
Since the film’s main character is a man with scissors for hands, you can imagine there was plenty of extra work done to make sure everything looked good, natural, and just the way that Tim Burton wanted it once all was said and done.
Every Danced With the Devil in the Pale Moonlight?
Tim Burton's 'Batman' is an iconic part of superhero movie history, thanks to the dark and whimsical Gotham city, the famous caped crusader himself, and the wild, wacky, and killer Joker, as played by Jack Nicholson. He killed his role, allowing himself to go a little bit crazy as the clown prince of crime.
This 1989 movie is one of the lasting films for hero fans, even if superheroes have been popping up every couple of months, from 'Batman' and 'Superman' to 'Spider-Man', 'Black Panther', and many more.
Makeup is a Joke
While his quirky acting, the immaculate directing, and the memorable writing of Nicholson's Joker gave plenty of people chills, Jack still had to spend his time in the makeup chair to get ready for the role.
He might not have been a real psycho clown, but this behind the scenes picture gives us a little bit of insight as to why Nicholson let out all the stops whenever he was in front of the camera. After sitting still and getting your hair, lips, and face painted for hours on end, you'd probably feel a little bit crazy too!
A Little Bit of Love
'Edward Scissorhands' also starred Winona Ryder, and while the film is a romance at its core, the two principles were already friendly. Even with those sharp fingers, here we see Ryder and Depp embracing, before Depp has had his scarred-up face put on.
There's plenty of chemistry between these two, and for good reason – after the movie was finished, they went on to have a real romantic relationship.
He's Back
'The Terminator' makes another appearance on the list, and for good reason. This famous science-fiction film had plenty of special effect help, even if it was made before the emergence of widespread CGI.
Director James Cameron's vision of a future war between man and machines has inspired plenty of work, including The Matrix, and Schwarzenegger ends up pretty beat up by the end.
