When wearing it to a party, it’s instantly recognizable and distinct. And in the scenes where the camera settles on him, it shows him as a tragic figure hiding something.Īt least that’s what the mask does in the movie anyway. So the mask acts first like the picture of terror in darkness. It is only after he abducts Christine that we get to see the person behind the mask and not see for the pure terror he was.
Accidents happen out of nowhere, all orchestrated by this malevolent being. The character starts off as an unseen terror wrecking productions and threatening the crew. But the one in the movie gives off an air of terror and later mystique.
The mask is a basic masquerade mask in that it covers a portion of the face. Any mask is a Halloween mask, so that goes without saying. It’s also a pretty good option for a prom party or as part of a cosplay costume. To a point, where you can’t attend one without seeing at least one in attendance. The Phantom mask is a very good choice for a masquerade party. Lots of singing, shocked screaming, magic tricks, lighting effects, a dude going around scaring actors and an eye-catching mask. The story is about the Phantom’s obsession and how that plays out. But of course, there’s a regular love interest in the form of Patrick Wilson’s Raoul.
He turns his attention towards Rossum’s character, Christine. The Phantom of the Opera of a man who lives below an opera, ‘haunting’ the actors and production for years. Patrick Wilson plays her love interest and a rival to the masked Butler. At this point, no one would’ve guessed she’d play a character like Fiona Gallagher on a show like Shameless. Playing the object of his obsession was Emmy Rossum as the young lead of the production. That should’ve been a deal-breaker considering opera adaptations have a lot of singing. His casting felt like a box-office move, in that he didn’t have singing experience. It starred Gerard Butler as the frightening Phantom of the opera.
