The Hammer Monsters of Roy Ashton
Written by Bruce Sachs and Russell Wall.
Paperback - 160 pages (July 1998)
The history of Roy Ashton, one of the cinema's greatest make-up designers. He designed many of Hammer's most famous monsters - his influence is unmeasurable, many of today's "monster-makers" credit him as an inspiration. An excellent book for anyone interested in the films of Hammer or anyone interested in special makeup effects.
"I much enjoyed this book about Roy Ashton's work for Hammer. It
is a fitting tribute to a man who was not just a 'make-up
artist' ... he had the style and the instinct of a great
painter." - Christopher Lee
