    Behind the Mask with Tom Burman (2014)

    *** (out of 4)

    Four minute interview with Tom Burman who discusses creating the mask and a few other effects that were used in Brian DePalma's PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE. Burman starts off talking about how the legendary John Chambers was hired to do the picture but eventually walked away and did nothing on the picture yet somehow managed to get credited for it. Burman talks about how he came up with the mask as well as the side view of the Phantom's face. The most interesting thing to come from this is the fact that he never met DePalma while working on the picture. Overall there's nothing too special with this featurette but fans of the film will enjoy hearing the stories.
