Tunnicliffe learned that a remake of the 1987 Clive Barker classic was in the works (with INSIDE’s Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury at the helm, since replaced by MARTYRS’ Pascal Laugier), he grew pretty excited. However, some of this excitement turned to fear when he was told that the producers’ plans were for a very “different” take on the mythology and a very “different” Pinhead.When the phone at his shop failed to ring with an offer to work on the new movie, Tunnicliffe took it upon himself to redesign the iconic fright figure on spec. Here, he exclusively shares with Fangoria.com his test footage (at the bottom of this page), photos and words from what he christened “Project Angel: Recreating an Icon.”</i>
