And they did it without the aid of computer graphics showing him from no-face aliens changing slowly into Johnny Steele, i mean it's a groundbreaking effect used in a b-movie.

Yeha that was agreat scene in the movie, it's hard to believe that most of that was just wax that they melted down and then played the clip in reverse... They had to be very creative back before CGI came along

I doubt they used a hair dryer, they had to use something very very hot so i would say they used some kind of heater. or something they could inclose the wax body in.

CGI can be good if done right but it was the 80's and they had some good technology back then.

It always reminds me of Franks resurrection scene in Hellraiser.

Sorry if it's an old topic but I agree these are cool effects, I think they did it with a blower heater just like what was done on Return of the living dead for the Tarman face melting part for the credits.

Only thing better was Lee turning into that hot model, *wolf whistle*

Yeah, I saw it on tv so it was cut out but a few years ago I did when I was looking for Critters videos online.
