Our expert's notes

Dr. Carl Hill's (David Gale) winged head puppet from Brian Yuzna's sci-fi horror sequel Bride of Re-Animator. Dr. Hill's winged head led a band of zombies against Dr. West (Jeffrey Combs) at the end of the film.

Dr. Hill's head features a foam-latex skin over a fibreglass form. It has acrylic eyes and teeth, and includes interior mechanisms and servos, which once operated the face and mechanical wings. The scalp is outfitted with hair appliances, and two bat-wings protrude from holes on the sides of Dr. Hill's head. The wings are made of black spandex wrapped around poseable wire rods. The head is mounted to a metal pipe, which is fixed to a wooden base. The lot shows notable wear to the foam, which has become brittle due to age. Subtle sympathetic restoration was undertaken on the foam latex skin which was also sealed. The left wing has also broken where the rod fits inside the forehead. The piece remains in poor overall condition. Dimensions: 66 cm x 41 cm x 28 cm (26" x 16" x 11")
