Artist's Comments

You gotta really know your horror movies to appreciate this one! The lovable killer featured in this illustration is Madman Marz, from the movie "Madman". Although I believe the film has also has been released under alternate titles. Anyway, this is my tribute to a super obscure horror character from a super obscure 1980's horror movie.

My wife Monica, who usually loves my artwork, was really disturbed by this one, for some reason.

UPDATE: A couple of months after I posted this illustration, I came home from work one day to find a message on my answering machine. A gravelly, but friendly voice with an East Coast accent said, "I hope I have the right number... I am trying to reach Bryan Baugh. My name is Paul Ehlers and in 1982 I played a character called Madman Marz in a horror movie called Madman. A friend of mine recently showed me the drawing you did of Madman Marz, posted on a website, and I love it. I would love to know how I can acquire a print of it... Call me back when you have a chance, I'd love to talk to you about this."

This was a wonderful shock. I certainly did call him back and had quite a fun discussion. Turns out that we have a lot of the same favorite movies, comic books, monsters, and artists. After a while it was no different than talking to any of my other friends and I forgot all about the insanely cool and surreal fact that I was on the phone with Madman Marz himself! Since then we've had several more pleasant conversations, and I am proud to say that Paul "Madman Marz" Ehlers, really has become a friend. ...So the next time you smarty pants kids feel tempted to criticize one of my drawings, just remember the big guy with the rotted nose and bloody axe is a buddy of mine! Haha!!

I love her expression
:iconchickfighter:
That's cool! I like the way the colors/textures of the background work as shades of each other. It really makes the action and the expressive faces come to the fore.

I'll have to look up this flick. I don't recall it right off.

HA! Awesome.

I remember when we first watched this thing from Century video. It is still one of my favortie ones we rented from their.

I think I am going to go watch the DVD now.

The grass on the drawing is really nice and I like the colors you chose for this one.
