Aaron Eckhart’s Two-Face may only be 50 percent ugly, but that 50 percent is really, really ugly. In Christopher Nolan’s 2008 film "The Dark Knight," Eckhart goes from being Gotham City’s District Attorney Harvey Dent to the two-sided villain after half his face is burnt off and his girlfriend is killed in one of the Joker’s (Heath Ledger) traps. “I can tell you that, basically, when you look at Two-Face, you should get sick to your stomach,” Eckhart told the Los Angeles Times. “Being the guy under all that, well, that was a lot of fun for me.” (Photo:Warner Bros.)

Burberry model-turned-actor Alex Pettyfer finds himself cursed without hair and covered in tattoos after he runs afoul of his prep school’s resident witch (Mary-Kate Olsen) in "Beastly," which hits theaters this weekend. The modern telling of the classic "Beauty and the Beast" has Pettyfer’s character seeking love in order to break the witch’s spell—enter High School Musical’s Vanessa Hudgens. For his transformation from beautiful 20 year old to ghastly onscreen outsider, Pettyfer shaved his head and underwent a daily six-hour uglification process. “Four and a half hours to put on the prosthetics, and one and a half to take them off,” he told Teen Vogue. “We basically came up with this concept that everything that he thought was ugly on a person would come out in him,” Pettyfer added to About.com, noting his character’s disgust early on in the film about a peer’s face tattoo.

This uglified character is likely responsible for more teenage crushes than any other. Tim Burton gave Johnny Depp a makeover for 1990’s "Edward Scissorhands," replete with pasty makeup, massive black hair, and, of course, shears instead of fingers. Depp plays the title character, who is the invention of a mad scientist who died before completing his project, leaving Edward without human hands. An Avon saleswoman (Dianne Wiest) takes him in and eventually, Edward falls in love with her daughter (Winona Ryder) before being chased back to his castle by intolerant townsfolk. “I’m lucky,” Depp told CBS’ Early Show. “I feel like the suit, the makeup, the hands, being bound up like that and sort of restricted in a lot of ways helped me to find what I ultimately found, which was the character.” On Arsenio Hall, he explained why he related to Edward. “I think it’s a pretty universal thing… It’s the feeling of not being able to fit in.” (Photo:Everett Collection) See the Full story at The Daily Beast
Mel Gibson now probably has firsthand knowledge about living in hiding, feeling misunderstood and hated. But he got his initial insight into those emotions in his 1993 directorial debut "The Man Without a Face," in which Gibson also starred as Justin McLeod, a former teacher living as a recluse after being badly maimed in a car accident that killed his student. Accused of pedophilia, McLeod is exiled to another town, where he’s treated with suspicion by everyone, except the one student he’s tutoring. In a particularly dramatic scene, the alienated and frustrated McLeod asks, “Is this what you see? I assure you, it is human. But if that's all you see, then you don't see me. You can't see me!” Gibson said wearing the makeup McLeod required was unpleasant. “It took a while. You know, they had to glue that thing on. What a pain in the neck… literally,” he said. “It’s a real drag sitting there, getting stuff glued on you… You could lose your mind.” How prophetic.

Though he was typecast as a good-looking New York gangster throughout the 1970s and '80s, Robert De Niro took a career turn to play Mary Shelley’s patchwork monster in the 1994 film version. The movie may have received mixed reviews, but De Niro’s depiction of the Creature—featuring a face full of bloody stitches— was lauded across the board. His commitment to looking frightening also helped "Frankenstein" nab an Academy Award nomination for Best Makeup and the praise of The New York Times. “Mr. De Niro's appearance is transfixingly bizarre, aided by astonishing makeup effects and the actor's own physical transformation into a grieving, lumbering outsider,” Janet Maslin reviewed.

In Cameron Crowe’s 2001 thriller "Vanilla Sky," Tom Cruise plays David Aames, a cocky boy wonder, strutting around New York and sleeping with the city’s beautiful women. When a psychotic ex drives him off a bridge, leaving him horribly disfigured, he soon discovers he doesn’t have anything without his face. Aames goes about buying his face back, but spends part of this trippy Cameron Crowe film wearing a waxy mask. For heartthrob Cruise, Aames’ development wasn’t only about the physical. “I’m not a fan of movies where something happens physically and the whole movie is about the affliction,” the star told MIT’s The Tech. “You start to go right past whatever physical affliction is present, and you see what’s going on in the person, and that’s a great thing. That’s why I made the movie.” (Photo:Everett Collection) See the Full story at The Daily Beast
Now action star and Aniston ex Gerard Butler plays one of the most famous deformed characters of all time: "The Phantom of the Opera" in Joel Schumacher’s 2004 film adaptation of the Andrew Lloyd Webber classic. With half of his face covered by a white mask, Butler’s character—a musical genius—haunts the Paris Opera. In a series of flashbacks, the audience learns the Phantom’s mangled face was responsible for him being tortured and exploited as a child, but Butler found a brightside in the mask. “You have to understand the advantages of that mask insomuch as it's something to hide behind and it's also a very powerful thing to behold,” Butler told the BBC. “You use it like a tool to help you become the character… He wants to present the most intimidating and sexy exterior he can.” (Photo:Everett Collection) See the Full story at The Daily Beast
