FAKE BLOOD!
This is the most basic of gore effects, and it's almost always a good idea to put lot's of this in your movie, because if it sucks , then at least you'll have lot's of blood and gore, and it will be somewhat entertaining. Now, without further ado... THE RECIPE!!!
1 cup of water
1 cup of corn syrup
3/4 cups flour
lot's and lot's of red food coloring, if you don't have enough red, add all you have, then put in 1 drop of blue
Mix all of this together untill it is to your liking, if you want it thicker add more corn syrup and flour, if you want it thinner add more water.
CUTS/SLASHES
just take some fake skin, which you can buy from the store at halloween, or from HTPP://WWW.FUN-SHOP.COM/DEFAULT.HTM. Mold the fake skin onto where you want the cut, then cut a slash accros it and put fake blood in the slash. This also works (but not as well) with uncooked meet and liquid latex.
BLOOD SQUIRTS EVERYWHERE!!!
Want blood to squirt out of a cut? Just buy som clear plastic tubing from a pet store, and mold one end in the fake skin, squirt blood through the other one with a needleless syringe. Want someone cut up off screen? cut a mellon off screen and have someone scream for sound. then get several needleless syringe and squirt it on the wall you are filming.
Need lot's and lot's of blood? make a water based blood miture with only food coloring and water, put it in a giant super soaker and squirt it where you need it.
IMPALED BODIES GALORE!!!
For something small stuck into someone, like a pencil, just mold it with fake skin to where you want it, then put fake blood every where. For something bigger, you can make a fake body, out of some pillows or something with a shirt on and do a close up, or have the person hold it in them whil at the same time holding a sponge soaked in fake blood. This is cheap but it works pretty well.
STABBINGS!!!
Build a fake body out of something hollow, like one of those giant water containers or a cardbord box cut in the right shape. Cut a whole it the size of the container you want blood in. Take a container, fill it with blood, and put it in the whole you cut. Put a shirt over it zoom in as you stab the container and the blood oozes out.
