If you wish to obtain additional information on a particular lot, ScreenUsed may provide, upon request, a more detailed description than what appears in the catalog. We remind the prospective buyers that these are rare collector pieces, and all sales are final.
(Paramount Pictures, 1981) This head was custom-made by the production from Paul Freeman's lifecast. The head is made of foam and shows signs of it's age with surface cracks and degradation. The head was created for use during the effects shots at ILM for Belloq's death scene. This may be the only surviving head of its kind from the effects sequence. The head measures 19" wide x 14" tall x 10" deep.

To clarify, this is obviously not the head blown up on screen, but this was the master head used to cast the amalgimate head that was blown up on screen. The piece was original acquired from a retired ILM visual effects supervisor.
