Aron Dosiak has studied at the Adelaide Central School of Art and the National Institute of Dramatic Art for sculpture and design. He’s worked freelance in the arts and entertainment industry building mechanical puppets, sets, props, prosthetics and make-up both for local and international productions. In the lead up to the In the Housedouble screening of The Thingand The Blob next week, we caught up with Aron to talk about why Carpenter’s 1982 cult cinema classic The Thing is considered such a landmark in special effects history.
So in regards to special effects, what’s your opinion on Carpenter’s The Thing?
So here’s a guy, you know, the make‑up artist himself came out of nowhere. He had worked with the director previously on other films but he was only 22 when he made this film. His name was Rob Bottin and he had, sort of, built up a bit of a rapport with the director and the director said “look, I trust you that you can do this.” And he even pitched the idea that the creature would take on aspects of previous encounters with other creatures. So there’d be a lot of insects, there’d be rats; there were – perhaps even they were aliens… and it almost killed guy.
On the last day of shooting or close to the last day of shooting, the director came in looking for Rob and found him laying under a table and he’d actually been sleeping and he didn’t take a day off in the while they were shooting. He was actually pale and gaunt and the director said to him: “what are you doing? Take this guy to hospital; this guy’s dying”. And Rob Bottin laughs about it now and he says “I didn’t do that again; I’ve learnt the line.” But his efforts really show on the screen; really do. For the large part, they’re practical; for the large part they’re there. I mean it’s pretty amazing, you know?
It wasn’t that long before that that there was even an award for what’s now known as special effects make‑up because before that it was either make-up or special effects. There were certain pioneers like Dick Smith and Stan Winston and, of course, American Werewolf in London won that award for the first time. And the idea of taking visual effects – practical effects that you would use in front of the camera and applying it to make-up – so it wasn’t that long ago that it was sort of really crafted and really came into its element. And this film is some of the best of that; it holds up beautifully.
So that leads to the next question actually: so there was the 2011 remake which famously was panned by critics specifically also in regards to its special effects. So what is it about the effects in this film, which is now decades old, that many people consider to be seminal and still hold up compared to more contemporary work which has the benefit of things like CGI?
Well, the make-up effects – the special effects in the latest effects were actually practical initially. Tom Woodruff and Alec Gillis, Amalgamated Dynamics, from their angle, they built everything practical and they shot it practically. There was always the intent of putting a bit of CGI in there; a leg here, subtracting some structural work; some puppeteering rods but it was all done in camera. And then it’s hard to say how much it was the director and how much it was the producers but basically they decided that the film looked too 80s. Which is ironic because it’s meant to be, you know, in the 80s. So some of the best in-camera creature effects done to date were then covered CGI to the point where it all looks fake in my mind. Even the real stuff has a sort of CGI sheen or extra fire or extra tentacles and it completely masks the beauty of what was in-camera.
And the studio are very – chose their words very carefully at the time and I think they have to – you know being in the professional scene – but they weren’t happy. They went on to do another film where they used completely practical effects; unfortunately it didn’t have nearly the budget and it’s not quite as good. But as soon as you overlay something with CGI, I feel like an audience picks it. And I feel like where it’s easier to excuse something that’s practical, that’s physically; even if it’s not done amazingly. It’s easy to excuse that and take it for a degree of nostalgia than it is to try and excuse CGI that’s never there. And I’m not sure how much of that is me and an older audience being nostalgic in the way that maybe another audience are nostalgic for stop-motion but for all the people that I seem to talk to about it; they all tend to agree. But it doesn’t seem to stop directors; it doesn’t seem to stop producers wanting to throw in CGI at the last minute.
Well, it’s apparently the movie world’s saving grace; so something wasn’t done properly or they want something a bit extra: we’ll just slap on some CGI. Get some animators to fix it in post.
Right. And I don’t want to be a luddite about it; I do believe CGI has its place and I feel like it will keep advancing and it’ll get to an interesting area but I feel like there’s a degree in which film is now becoming more nostalgic. I feel like CGI is better placed in the gaming world;in the augmented reality world; in the virtual reality world and I feel like it feels a bit out of place in live action cinema; I feel like it might always feel a bit out of place. So because I feel like because it is so nostalgic; I feel like it needs to keep within its own language a little bit but that’s just my personal take.
So here’s the last question: there’s a hypothetical new remake of The Thing that’s starting tomorrow, you’ve slated to work on it as head special effects, what would your contribution be to the production? Do you think that there is anything new that you can bring?
It’s really hard, isn’t it? Because it’s that old thing of as soon as you make a sequel, again directors; producers; even writers often make the mistake of “more is more”. They value quantity over quality so I feel like there’s a danger that you might want to expand on the creature in some way or reposition the creature; put it in the middle of a city. And I feel like it would destroy all the essence of what the story actually is and the story really is about claustrophobia. Both the original original, the Carpenter original, and also the remake – prequel – they’re about isolation and distrust.
So I feel like as much as I want to go crazy, I feel like making the reveals as intense as possible but also surprising. I would try to be restrained; I’d tried to be as clever as I could with the special effects and as visceral and as interesting and as dynamic and I would try to obviously, really enforce the in-camera; because I feel like that story really needs it, particularly. I’d really want to push that aspect but I feel like pulling your punches is really what that story needs.

With all of the commotion of ports and retro revivals, Capcom have yet again taken notice, producing yet another classic collection of titles for hungry fans to sink their teeth into. Capcom have released the appropriately titled Capcom Beat ‘Em Up Bundle for consoles, attempting to bring past arcade favorites back into the hands of those craving some nostalgia. So how does the addition of online and general fluidity to these old favorites fare today? Let’s find out.
Story
Most gamers know a good portion of the tales here, as they feature long-time mainstays for Capcom such as Cody, Guy, and Haggar – who have all appeared several times in titles such as Street Fighter and Marvel vs Capcom. Outside of Final Fight, there honestly is not a whole lot of lore that is known about something like Armored Warriors or Battle Circuit, but honestly – each have about the same objective. Big bad A is kidnapping random B and a set of characters must set out through a selection of stages to save the day. I hate to just group all seven titles in this collection together like that, but its true. Capcom beat-em-ups all feature very similar plots, so players will mainly be focused on surviving with credits in tow, rather than seeing any kind of epic cutscene in-between stages. Its serviceable storytelling at its finest, simply acting as a minor way to keep the game progressing, acting as a way to make sense of changing environments.
Gameplay
I think a lot you also know the general gist of a beat-em-up. Players move right on a side-scrolling screen and mash buttons to perform attacks, with enemies dropping health and power-ups that keep the adventure progressing. In general, not one title in this collection deviates from that formula, but all definitely offer their own take on the experience. Final Fight is absolutely the most traditional, and in my opinion is closer to something such as Streets of Rage than a lot of other titles within the same collection. Though much more unique, The King Of Dragons and Knights of the Round capture the same feel, but offer an RPG progression system where players can level up and upgrade stats as they push through.
Armored Warriors‘ main features revolve around the mechs within, allowing players a ton of options when it comes to customizing their arsenal. Captain Commando is basically Final Fight with more refinement, and then there is Battle Circuit. I saved Battle Circuit for last as it is the only title in this collection that was actually one I had never tried, so playing something so over-the-top and colorful was definitely exciting. For this romp, techniques are expanded upon and leveled as progression occurs, as this title basically borrows a bit of gimmickry from all of the other fare involved and adds its own insane flare to create an unforgettable experience. The controls are tight, the gameplay is fun, and the story is lovely.
The big feature for this collection is the ability to go online and have up to four players drop in and out of combat and complete a game together. Thankfully, the servers seem to be decent enough to pull this off on the Playstation 4. I played each game for a bit online, and I didn’t have a lot of issues aside from players quitting constantly, but thankfully- that does little to harm you unless you don’t like waiting for others to join up. Players can also tailor their experience through the options within, with the ability to fast-forward and rewind the game with a press of a button, with added save states also provided to modernize that classic feel with mechanics that have become the norm with these types of ports. Do I think there could have been some goofy special features or perhaps even a little more love overall for this collection? Sure, but with seven games, anyone should be able to find a preference and run with it as this genre specific pack has a slice of something for everyone.
Visuals and Audio
Visually, these games look great in HD. Their bright colors and animations come off as fluid, and despite some loss of frames online (mainly when someone is joining), this collection may be the best way to see these old favorites if you have the itch to go back. Of course some titles come off as a bit muddy and dark due to their setting, but with those titles usually come a lot of brightly colored magic and flashy animations to compensate, breaking up from the boring models and environments that one may tire of easily. Most will find the visuals a preference issue, as each of these titles came out in a different year and some are nearly thirty years old, so do not expect perfection – but do expect for art styles that lack polish but still have the charms of yesterday. Play Final Fight again in its raw form, and you will see what I mean.
The sound is awesome. Each title has a highly varied soundtrack that Capcom fans will love and fall right into. Sure, some are less memorable than others, but there is no doubt experiencing this title with the volume up is the way to get the most of that arcade atmosphere. From the sound effects to the rips that expel out as magic is executed, the sound absolutely sounds great, and not one title misses a beat in that area.
Overvall
Capcom Beat ‘Em Up Bundle is a lovely collection that offers seven favorites for a discounted price-tag. Could there be more? Of course. I would love to see a bit more fan service and love go into this collection, with more special features and stories from developers. However, what we get here is a nice walk through an arcade with some awesome games that will introduce players to why no kid in the 90’s had lunch money. Genre collections can be hit or miss at times, but this bundle’s variety and quality within will give everyone looking for a nostalgic punch to the heart that they are sure to go back to again and again. No quarters required.
No one could have predicted the situation that Telltale Games has now found itself in, especially since it seemed like when The Walking Dead: The Final Season kicked off in August everything had already been laid out. Now with nearly every Telltale Games employee fired and with the future of the series in question, we have what may be the last episode to be released by this developer. With the final season of the game now no longer available for purchase and future episodes to be potentially developed by another, the story still continues in Suffer the Children, even if it may be some time, if at all, we see it move past this point.
Story
Regardless of the future fate of The Walking Dead: The Final Season, it is worth noting that continuing to read past this point will include spoilers for the previous episode. This means if you have not played the first episode you should either do so, if possible, or risk spoiling some of the bigger events.
When we last saw Clementine and AJ in Done Running we had just found out a major secret that Marlon, the leader of the children’s group, had been keeping from everyone. That happened to be that he had sacrificed two of their number to raiders in return for safety. Unfortunately thanks to this revelation not only did an innocent girl die but Marlon himself ended up being shot in the back of the head by AJ leaving Clementine to be the one to bear the brunt of everyone’s anger.
Considering even before these studio issues arose this final season was only slated for four episodes, Suffer the Children doesn’t try to drag out the drama in any major way other than having players attempt to explain themselves with little actual chance to alter the outcome of what the children’s group decides to do with them. This moves things along at a brisk pace but unfortunately the actual character interactions suffer for it as we once again find Clementine barely being able to talk to more than two or three of the children in the school for more than a few sentences. Despite this being the second episode a large portion of the school’s children feel more like simple cannon fodder than actual characters, making the game’s small attempts to try and develop them feel incredibly useless and their potential deaths falling flat.
If nothing else, this brisk pace does allow things to move at a decent rate as Clementine and AJ soon learn more about who these bandits actually are and what plans they have for the school. This includes the return of a long missing face but, once again, the nature of the episode’s pacing and the now hostile nature of this character limits however much of a reunion this might have been. We see just how far Clementine and the children will go to protect their home and there are some rather nice interactions still available in regards to a handful of the characters. In fact, there is even a bit of a sample taken from the comics regarding a new character that makes a short appearance this episode which is a nice touch.
Gameplay
Similar to the first episode Suffer the Children makes use of new combat mecahnics to try and deal with the Walker situation. There are a handful of encounters that still require the use of melee weapons but a new bow and arrow allows for Clementine to take shots at zombies from afar with a smidge of physics added into it to keep things interesting.
Outside of the actual combat there are still some elements of exploration here and there but this is kept at a minimum this time around, in fact the collectibles that do return again this episode are kept to a bare minimum of three and happen to all appear within five minutes of one another. That being said, be prepared for a potential achievement glitch as a couple of non-story based ones seem to have issues unlocking sometimes.
Visuals & Audio
Suffer the Children continues to benefit from the new engine that Telltale Games managed to create before their closure as the graphical elements of the game remain rather impressive compared to previous episodes. A number of new areas are explored this time around, though most of them tend to involve being in the forest, and players get to see how things change around the school once everyone begins preparing. It is interesting to note that, similar to the first episode, there are a handful of scenes and events that can be only seen depending on certain choices, giving players more variety both during action sequences as well as interacting with other characters.
The soundtrack remains similar to the past episode and has just enough to it to keep the world feeling eerie and threatening when Walkers are near and tense during action sequences. The voice work is stellar once again with the returning character also seeing the same voice actor returning to reprise the role.
Overall
With how things have unfolded at Telltale Games and the future of the final season now unscheduled despite the announced revival by Skybound Games we find ourselves left with a rather cliffhanging temporary conclusion to Clementine’s journey. Suffer the Children’s fast pace leaves most characters by the wayside but still takes time to give Clementine to bond with a choice few while moving the plot forward by introducing new threats that have put her new friends in danger. It will be interesting to see just how things may eventually turn out should this journey happen to continue in the future.
