Patrick Baxter

Patrick Baxter is one of the top special effects makeup artists in movies and television today, who is always working on a new project. He has made incredible prosthetics and gory pieces that shock audiences and make them cringe. His work in the Saw movies has proven just that (come on, the jaw breaker? AH).

Patrick Baxter is one of my all time favorite make-up artists, simply because of his work in Dead Silence, a movie with a curse of a ventriloquist who kills anyone who screams when you see her. The movie honestly to this day scares me, just because of how well the character Mary Shaw was created and her doll-like make-up.
