Following their hugely successful Masters of Make-Up Effects, Oscar-winning make-up effects artist Howard Berger and veteran film journalist Marshall Julius emerge from the shadows to continue their Hollywood Monsters odyssey with their next book, Making Monsters, an oral history of the monsters who made us and the magicians who made them.
In a spellbinding, devilishly detailed compendium of never-before-seen photographs and candid recollections from more than 80 film and television visionaries, Making Monsters pries open the crypt to expose the twisted geniuses that dreamed the nightmares, the hands that stitched the beasts, and the blood-bound Monster Kid community determined to keep the flame alive.
With a welcome from dream demon Robert Englund and a final word from Lost Boys Alex Winter, along with wicked original art by Jason Edmiston, Graham Humphreys, Mark Tavares and Terry Wolfinger, Hollywood’s most iconic creatures come to life as Berger and Julius forge craft with camaraderie, inviting readers onto the set and behind the scenes.

Da-Dum: ‘Jaws’ Celebrates 50 Years on Martha’s Vineyard
Welcome aboard Amity Boat Tours! What better way to talk about Jaws than a return trip to the shores of Amity, also known as Martha’s Vineyard, the picturesque island off the coast of Massachusetts where Steven Spielberg, the cast and crew filmed the classic adventure in the summer – and fall – of 1974. Following the world’s introduction to that clever shark, tourism on Martha’s Vineyard exploded, and it’s been ‘Jaws Island’ ever since, with visitors flocking to filming locations and ‘Amity’ landmarks annually.To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Spielberg’s 1975 classic, Martha’s Vineyard Museum is rolling out the 'blood' red carpet welcoming Jaws finatics and islanders to explore a new landmark exhibit, Jaws at 50: A Deeper Dive. Through rare photographs, oral histories, original artwork, and authentic movie props, the museum’s galleries recount how Martha’s Vineyard played a starring role in cinema history. In addition to the summer-long exhibition, the museum proudly presents Amity Homecoming Weekend. The robust five-day event from the 19th to the 23rd of June will swallow guests in exclusive talks and special guests sharing behind-the-scenes insights into the making of Jaws. During our tour of Amity, Film Review is joined by the staff of Martha’s Vineyard Museum – Cathy Mayone (Managing Director), Laurel Redington (Director of Programming and Audience Engagement), Bow Van Riper (Historian and Research Librarian) and Anna Barber (Curator of Exhibitions) – who share insights on the 50th anniversary and celebrate the legacy of Jaws where it all began.
