The Ritual on Netflix


The Ritual just released today on Netflix.  You can check it out HERE.  Once it's been out for a while I'll start showing all the design work and art that went into it.

  1. I just saw the movie and I really liked the design of the big spooky thing. So much so that I watched the credits just to see who designed it. Thats how I got here!

  2. I watched the movie this past weekend and loved it. I can't wait to see some of your concept sketches and art for it, as the creature was gorgeously striking.

  8. That was one GORGEOUS design. Got to your site from seeing your name in the credits, and was thrilled to see your artwork again - I have a copy of Drawing and Painting the Undead and it's always been one of my favorites.

  10. I just saw the movie and it's amazing! Is it coincidence that the creature forms a rune with his body at the end?

  11. Watched the mobie and searched online. Found your site and saw all the other amazing designs you did. Loved the creature in the movie! Director was also not shy in showing it when the time came!

  15. As soon as I saw the creature design I said "this reminds me so much of Keith Thompson"... Man was I proud of myself when I saw your name come up ♡ Amazing work, one of the best movie monster designs I've seen in a long time!

  16. I can't wait to see the artwork for this creature! I saw this movie and immediately thought 'This reminds me of Keith Thompson...' and I was so delighted to find you were behind the creature! I remember looking at your website and creepy spookems back in high school and to see such a fantastic, otherworldly body horror design drawing inspiration from something other than the woefully overused judeochristian pantheon... I hope you'll post some artwork for this beasty soon.

  18. Wow this was one cool creature... Just found out you were the artist behind it through finding your illustration book about undead creatures in a library in Strasbourg France. Great book too

  19. Hey, man, just checking in to see how you are. I asked you about this ... god, it would've been a year or two ago, now, and I hope it's not a bother to ask, but I just wanted to check and see where you were with the update.

    Kind Regards,
    Morgan.
