BLOOD!!!!!!
After reading this article, I couldn't help but reminisce about the old horror films.
The advances they've made in theatrical blood is quite thrilling.
If you're filming a homemade horror film these days all you have to do is visit your local super store and purchase a vampire makeup set.
When I was younger, my friends and I would film short humorous videos and come up with creative ways to fool our audience.
For a particular video, I played as jealous boyfriend who shoots his girlfriend in the heart. With limited material, we simply mixed up a concoction that kind of looked like blood and filled small balloons with it.
When it was time to get shot, we simply had the girlfriend slap her chest (as if in pain) where the balloon was hidden beneath her shirt. Boom.
She pulls her hand away and there's blood all over her.
The recreation of blood for movies and theater is an extremely interesting topic. You can not only read up on it but you can also see it happening as you review the evolution of horror film blood.
