In 1979, Ridley Scott introduced moviegoers to a new definition of fear and horror
with his sci-fi classic, Alien. To coincide with the release of AVP, special
effects gurus Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff, Jr. opened the doors of their
Academy Award-winning creature shop, Amalgamated Dynamics Inc. (A.D.I.),
to invite all to a behind-the-scenes journey, as they once more breathed life into
the characters that have been scaring audiences for over two decades.
Different from many “making of” books, it focuses exclusively on the creature
effects of AVP; what it takes to create some of sci-fi's baddest baddies. It follows
Gillis and Woodruff and their talented crew of over 100 artists and technicians
throughout the design, sculpting, fabrication, and finishing processes.
The story continues on location in Prague where, as the cameras roll, their
creations truly come to life.
