Our expert's notes

This item is a cable operated Dren puppet created for the production of the 2010 sci-fi film Splice. This puppet was created and used in a scene which depicted Dren painstakingly grew arms which rip out from the sides of her torso, however the scene does not appear in the film’s final cut. The puppet is made from silicone with a translucent skin that is flexible and somewhat sticky. The legs have an armature in them, but have split at the joints. The split is not noticeable when the legs are put into their normal position, as you can see from the photographs. The puppet features numerous cables that would allow the head to move. The piece comes on its production used stand, which has had an additional support added for the head, as the head would otherwise sag under it's own weight.The impressive triple-jointed puppet includes large, dark eyes, as well as tiny ears, an undeveloped nose, and long, slender toes. The puppet measures approximately 28” (71cm) tall and is in very good condition.
