RIP JOHN CARL BUECHLER 1952-2019

The man Roger Corman called "the best make-up effects man in the business" has died.

John Carl Buechler was one of the last great make-up effects men in the movie business. He worked on many, many genre films and I bet you've seen some of his work.

His two most famous films were "Cellar Dweller" and "Mausoleum". He also worked on such classics as "Deathstalker", "Re-Animator", "Bride Of Re-Animator", "Dolls", and "Forbidden World" just to name a few.

Buechler also handled the directing chores on "Cellar Dweller", "Troll" and many others.

A multi talented man who made low budget films enjoyable with some of his incredible creations. He passed away on March 17th at the age of 66 from prostate cancer. Thank you Mr. Buechler for making my movie going experience a little better.
