While Hollywood’s busy trying to reinvent these iconic horror villains of the ‘80s for contemporary audiences, Bryan Baugh is preserving their essence with these wondrous illustrations. Depicting Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger and Michael Myers in their respective films, each Baugh rendering brings viewers back into the headspace they were in while watching each movie. And he doesn’t skimp on the brutality either as Baugh graphically shows torsos being hacked in half, slashed, stabbed and other frightening things.
