Faceless Man no more

[yagathai]

So as some of you may know, I have a recurring gig in kylecassidy's work as The Faceless Villain. Repeatedly I am cast as the menacing shadow on the wall, the blurred visage in the window, the guy in the werewolf costume, the ominous pair of boots &c &c. It's sort of like how the Coen Brothers cast Bruce Campbell in bit parts in most of their films. I suppose it's flattering in a way -- I must have a very expressive silhouette.

Remarkably, in his latest work (see also his LJ post), Kyle made the excellent creative decision to actually show my face -- I have graduated to the Faceful Villain!

not only sinister blurry man, but sinister martini wielding probably-up-to-no-good man

A cocktail glass is shorthand for debonair evil.

As soon as I saw the suit, I was terrified.

The colouring is totally surreal. How do you do that?

Congratulations on being able to extend your repetoire. You did blurry villain so well, I had no doubt you were destined for bigger things!

I'm just worried about being overexposed, you know? I don't want to be another Lindsay Lohan.

Then I might suggest you stop going commando - in and out of your apartment.

It's the facial hair. You've graduated to an Evil Spock level bad guy

Exactly.



Congrats on reaching a new level of evil!
