As star Sandra Bullock explained to us a couple weeks back, a deleted scene from Netflix’s Bird Box actually showed one of the film’s creatures, which are completely unseen in the finished cut of the film. “It was a green man with a horrific baby face,” Bullock described the creature, which her character was going to encounter in a nightmare sequence.

So… do you actually want to see that “green man with a horrific baby face”?!

Over on Instagram, effects artist Andy Bergholtz just shared some photos of the sculpture he created for the deleted scene, while offering more insight into the scrapped nightmare.

Bergholtz explained, “We had the unique pleasure of designing a creepy makeup for the film, although the scene ultimately ended up on the cutting room floor. Keep in mind, the fatal “vision” that each character saw would most likely be different for each person (you’ll understand if you’ve seen the film), and this makeup appeared in a cut “dream/nightmare sequence” with Sandra Bullock’s character. Considering her pregnant state and emotional arc thru the movie, the producers felt Sandra’s nightmare would have something to do with a twisted, demonic baby creature attacking her (that’s as much as I could gather about the context of the scene anyway).”

He continued, “I sculpted at least 3 or 4 variations on the design before it was approved, which began as a more aggressive, monstery look and was revised to be a bit more subtle in the end. I also had the pleasure of painting the finished prosthetics before sending them to set, to be worn and performed by the one and only Dirk Rogers @thehalloweendirk, applied by the great @proutyfx. It’s funny, I read an interview recently where Bullock described the creature as a “snake-like, green man with a horrific baby face”. Many folks have speculated what the creature may have looked like, but they fail to realize the “snake-like green man” portion was simply Dirk in a spandex green-screen suit. Everything from the neck down was intended to be a giant CGI creature/body added later.”

“In the end, I actually really liked the movie and think it was better off NOT showing the makeup,” Bergholtz admitted. “Kudos to the director for sticking to her guns on that one.”
