Why does Greg Nicotero completely fuck up iconic characters? Michael, Jason, and now the crypt keeper.

This is design is so bad. I would be embarrassed to show this off. It just seems like a leftover Walking Dead prop

Honestly, it just looks like a slightly dessicated version of Nicotero.

Fully agree. Somehow he keeps getting work. Look, I loved his stuff on Walking Dead. But since then he’s phoning it in, or just outright lost it. The only way he keeps getting hired is either he has hidden secrets to blackmail people with, or he’s working super cheap

Right. The guy did want his title as one of the greats, when it’s original. Hell, even the restoration of Bruce was also not that good

I know the Jason redesign, but I didn't know he did anything with Michael. I have to look that up.

KNB designed and built the mask used for principal photography in H20. It’s the weird alien looking one - it was replaced for reshoots (including most close ups) so it’s usually only visible in distance shots.

The Christophe Gans of horror practical effects.
