00:00 (dramatic music)
00:02 (thunder rumbling)
00:07 (growling)
00:13 Okay, so I am going to be learning how to be a scare actor
00:18 here at Universal Studios Singapore
00:21 for their Halloween Horror Nights event.
00:23 I'm here at one of the haunted houses.
00:26 Based on the Netflix show, All of Us Are Dead.
00:30 With the help of Coral, who's the show director here,
00:33 she will be giving me a job appraisal
00:36 to see if I can make it.
00:38 (growling)
00:41 (laughing)
00:43 - The first thing we need to do is just warm up our faces.
00:48 So this is what I want you to do.
00:49 I just want you to open your mouth really, really big,
00:52 as big as you can.
00:53 Very good.
00:56 And then I want you to close your mouth
00:58 as small as you can.
01:00 So this exercise I like to call tiger face and lemon face.
01:04 Tiger face.
01:05 Lemon face.
01:07 Tiger face.
01:07 Lemon face.
01:08 Tiger face.
01:09 Lemon face.
01:10 Very good.
01:11 So let's see your zombie movements, okay?
01:12 Just run across or walk across
01:15 or however you want to do it.
01:16 Action.
01:17 - Boy, this, I'm like the worst break dancer.
01:23 (growling)
01:25 How's that?
01:29 - And action.
01:30 (growling)
01:32 - God, this is so bad.
01:36 I can feel, I can literally feel how bad I am.
01:39 Look how good looking you are.
01:45 - Yeah, you see?
01:47 - So sad I have to put all this prosthetic on you
01:49 just to become a zombie.
01:50 - It's true, right?
01:51 - Yeah.
01:53 (opera singing)
01:55 (opera singing)
01:58 (opera singing)
02:01 (opera singing)
02:04 (opera singing)
02:07 (opera singing)
02:10 (opera singing)
02:13 (opera singing)
02:19 (opera singing)
02:25 (opera singing)
02:29 - Oh, I feel great.
02:39 You've had a glow up, I see.
02:41 - Yeah.
02:41 - So I have three things that I'm gonna score you on.
02:44 Zombie movement, your zombie facial expression
02:48 and the zombie scare factor.
02:51 So we're gonna put you to the test
02:52 by putting you back into the house
02:54 and then you're gonna see if you can scare
02:57 unsuspecting guests walking through.
02:59 You think you're up for it?
03:01 - Yeah, I'll do my best.
03:04 - All right, well let's go.
03:05 (growling)
03:07 (growling)
03:10 (growling)
03:24 I feel so sick.
03:27 (laughing)
03:31 Shall we do another one?
03:35 - Yeah, I think we can do another one.
03:36 - I think it totally worked.
03:38 - Yes, yeah, yeah.
03:40 (growling)
03:43 (screaming)
03:54 - What?
03:58 I think you did a much better job than me.
04:00 Thank you.
04:02 (screaming)
04:05 (laughing)
04:08 - All of you work here.
04:10 - Everybody works here.
04:11 - Okay.
04:12 Oh no, they're all paid actors.
04:16 You're all paid actors.
04:18 So I felt really good about my performance.
04:23 I put all my passion into it.
04:27 But from your expert point of view, how did I do?
04:31 - Well, you know what?
04:32 I was a bit impressed with you
04:34 and so in terms of zombie movement,
04:37 zombie facial expressions and zombie scare factor,
04:40 I have given you 10, 10 and 10.
04:45 - Wow.
04:46 - But it's out of a hundred.
04:47 - Oh.
04:48 - So next year, I hope you come back
04:52 for scare actor auditions.
04:54 - I would definitely try to be a better zombie next year.
04:57 I'll practice for the next 12 months.
04:59 - Yeah, you do those exercises at home.
05:02 - Okay.
05:03 - Look in the mirror, you know,
05:04 make sure you can do it.
05:04 One day you too can be the best zombie ever.
05:07 - Thank you.
