Academy Award for Best Makeup









Jon Voight as Howard Cosell in Ali.
Also, Ralph Fiennes as Lord Voldemort.
Jared Leto as Mark Chapman in 'Chapter 27'
- Eddie Murphy as the White Jewish Guy from the Barber Shop in Coming to America was quite remarkable.
- Vincent D'Onofrio as Edgar Bug in MIB aswell as Tony Shaloub as Jeebs.
- Michael Rooker as Grant in Slither.
- Ian McDiarmid as the Emperor in Star Wars (VI to be most precise).
Heath Ledger as Joker!
Anyway:
Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder
Benecio del Toro as the Wolf Man
Ron Perlman as Hellboy
Doug Jones as Abe Sapien
I suppose you could check in the other abnormal mutants from Marvel aswell: Mystique, Nightcrawler etc.
Seeing as guys who shave their heads can make the list:
Rodrigo Santaro as King Xerxes in 300
I really thought Vincent Price in the 1954 House of Wax deserved to be there too though...
Gotta request Dustin Hoffman as 'Hook' from the movie of the same name. Didn't even know if was him for a Long time after I saw it as a kid.
peace
Dr Strangelove ... in early days
you might as well add actors who are the voices of cartoons..
I'd recommend Doug Jones... he did two roles with crazy costumes, so take your pick
As the Fauno in El Laberinto del fauno (Pan's Labyrinth) or,
As Abe Sabien in Hellboy/Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
or, a third option (one I don't personally like compared to the other two...) is as Silver Surfer in Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Robert Downey Junior in "Fur"
dave grohl from the foo fighters as the devil in the tenacious d movie
or ben stiller in this same movie also unrecognizable

2) Added, porpoise hork :)
mason verger gives me the creeps every time.
got a couple additions...
john rhys-davies as gimli in lord of the rings
also, jack black as the fatties in the faux opening previews in tropic thunder
keep up the good work!
Such a classic!
Great list! :)
Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Or Andy Serkis as Gollum in the Lord of the Rings? (or maybe that doesn't count because his character was animated)
Bill Nighy ---> too much CGI.
Jim Carrey ---> too much CGI and already on the list ("Grinch").
Dustin Hoffman ---> classic, but I preferred the "Little Big Man" make-up work.
Tim Curry ---> classic, but already on the list ("Legend", more elaborate makeup)
Edward Norton ---> just a mask
Tony Curtis & Jack Lemmon ---> classic but...
Andy Serkis ---> you answered yourself :)
Billy Bob Thornton ---> great, but "risky" (it could open the door to more similar suggestions) :)
Christian Bale ---> already on the list ("The Machinist", more shocking!)
BTW, thanks everybody!

One thing that stands out, at least to me, is the award for best makeup. The ones that didn't win one are often better than the ones that did. Makes me wonder what could have bested them at the time. I had seen Hannibal several times and am surprised to learn (only now) that Gary Oldman played Mason. I mean talk about a complete transformation and becoming unrecognizable.
Death becomes her
I'd suggest Doug Bradley as Pinhead in the Hellraiser- saga. http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2005/gallery/transformation/051121/ajolie.jpg
What about Cate Blanchett in I'm Not There?
If you're still taking more suggestions:
Guy Pearce in Factory Girl as Andy Warhol
James Caan in Dick Tracy as Spaldoni
Kevin Pollack in The Whole Ten Yards as Laslo (the father of the character he played in the first film)
http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/1/13839/20_2007/123241__being_l.jpg
Patrick Swayze as Vida Boheme
John Leguizamo as Chi-Chi Rodriguez
all from To Wong Foo Thanks For Everything, Julie Newmar
And well there's always tons of others in Sci-Fi films. Like in Star Wars (The Emperor)
Klaus Kinski in Herzog's "Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht" Oh wait, *famous* actors.
Why only one character per actor?
And maybe... Rebecca Romijn as Mystique, in X-Men?
