I’ve been a fan of Alice Cooper since I saw him on the Muppet Show as a kid. His creepy, theatrical aesthetic and insane stage shows filled monsters and guillotine executions appealed to my budding sense of the macabre. Later, I was excited to see him pop up in some of my favorite horror movies like ‘Prince of Darkness’ , ‘Nightmare on Elm street 6’ and the soundtrack for ‘Friday the 13th part 6’ I actually got the opportunity to briefly meet Mr. Cooper at the 2007 Scream Awards show. I was working FX makeup on that gig, and we had to send a 4’1” actor on a flying rig down into the crowd during a Quentin Tarantino/ Robert Rodriguez skit where they order a gargoyle to attack someone. Our entrance point to the roof was a ladder right in the middle of Alice Cooper’s dressing room. He was a lovely, tolerant gentleman that kindly took a sec to chat with me while we were hustling the stunt together and I will always remember the little interaction.
