Stacia at She Blogged By Night researched the history of the Captain Kirk mask used in the first (1978) Halloween movie.
Turns out, it was made from a life-cast of Shatner.
This Spock mask from the 1970s was also from a life-cast of Nimoy.
Both masks definitely live in the "uncanny valley"--that place where images are just close enough to real life to invoke revulsion.
Tho is the Kirk one also sort of touchingly sad?
