The real David Ferrie
There are only a couple of images that give me the creeps if I happen to see them. One is the pazuzu face of The Exorcist (understandably, I guess). The other is (real) David Ferrie's mugshot.
He looks really weird, and not just the obviously painted eyebrows. His eyes look very strange, like his pupils are too big or something. And he has an empty expression, like cold and sinister. Scary character.
Joe Pesci's performance, though superb, it's almost comic sometimes and does not convey that sense of danger that I get from just seeing this mugshot.
Does anyone feel the same?
