And here's Jack Nicholson, apparently strolling around the set with several important bits flapping around in the breeze.

Presumably later, after Jack got himself decent, he grabs his ax and takes a few wild practice swings. A process which the crew has obviously learned to work around:

And that iconic blood-filled elevator? The one from your nightmares? Well it looks a lot less terrifying and a lot more tedious when you see the poor crew who had to mop it up afterwards:

Warner Bros

And those creepy, probably evil twins? Yeah, they're here too, and they ...

Warner Bros

... they still look pretty creepy. Look at those smiles. They look like they've come from ritualistically slaughtering a calf at the craft services table.

Even in full movie monster regalia, Godzilla is quite a bit less scary when you see how well-mannered he is. Shaking hands:

Escorting a lady:

And being discreetly affectionate on a date:

Well how about that. In real life, Godzilla was less a monster and more a carefree, fun-loving lizard guy.

Here's one getting dressed for a wedding.

Not all of them were that stylish, though. Check out the bitchin' sleeveless shirt on this Pteranodon:

During filming, the dinosaurs had to be serviced from time to time, which led to even more absurdity.

Or this guy, disinterestedly watching a dinosaur face-hump a woman, like he sees this a couple times a day.

OK, but that's a smile and a cigarette and a tense child. That's not that lighthearted. Well check out this, which is either an extremely well-timed photobomb or a promo shot for a legal thriller about high-stakes criminal lawyers whose only glimmer of happiness comes from the antics of paralegal Sunny the Clown.

Warner Bros. Television

Pan's Labyrinth was a creepy movie filled with creepy creatures, but the absolute creepiest had to be the Pale Man. He was ghostly and thin and had freaking eyes in his hands -- a fever dream come to life.

He's also utterly adorable:

Having made a living almost exclusively playing nightmare-inducing thin men, legendary monster movie actor Doug Jones seems right at home as the skin sack of doom. Here he is sashaying down the hallway.

And here he is hamming it up with his makeup team.

And here's him and his six roommates navigating their way through life in the big city, dealing with jobs and breakups, and even learning a little bit about themselves.

So if we take it for a given that he's a remorseless butcher, it's a little jarring to see that in reality, he was little more than an oaf with a penchant for cheating at gin rummy.

Bryanston Pictures

Somehow even less menacingly, Leatherface may have had an undiagnosed inner ear problem, as evidenced by this outtake.

Thanks to what we're guessing is "movie magic" he somehow survived falling on a chainsaw. Still, that probably isn't the most terrifying thing you've seen today, we imagine. Unless you're a first aid attendant.

And then there's this photo, taken in the most '70s room in existence, in which we see the cast and crew gathered to listen to a motley band of flare-legged slashers all wearing Michael Myers masks:

Or wearing these neon shades:

AMC Studios

And then there's the show's cast and crew, who can't keep their grubby hands off the poor undead:

Or lips:

To be fair, there aren't many warm bodies left in the show's universe, and the zombie women are better-written than at least half the female characters. So this may be the show's creators trying to get out in front of the inevitable zombie/human slashfic by turning the show into a zomromcom.

We'd watch it.
