It’s hard to believe it’s been as long as it has since Bethesda gave us our first look at The Evil Within through that creepy, live-action reveal trailer. It was an effective debut for what would eventually become a great horror game, and now we can see how much work was put into it with this behind the scenes look from studioADI.
You would think something like this, with its buckets of gore and complex prosthetics would take some time to create, but it sounds like they really powered through it.
“Shot over a weekend, the FX set crew consisted of ADI veterans, Mike Spatola and his team of makeup artists from Cinema Makeup School. Day One primary focus: submerging suit perfomer Mick Ignis into the role [of] a four-armed banshee from hell.”
If I would have seen just one person dressed as my new favorite four-armed blood witch, it would’ve made my Halloween. Unfortunately, all I saw were generic woodland critters, princesses and a couple of Ghostfaces.
I recently played through some of The Evil Within for our 13 Days of Horror — check that out in the video below!
