Universal's Horror Make-Up Show is a comedic behind-the-scenes presentation that's located at Universal Studios Florida. Opening with the park on June 7, 1990, the show remains as one of the few original attractions to still be operating to this day.The show features two hosts, the first being Alex Ross, who soon then introduces the Special Guest host, Mark James (or Marty James, if a woman is playing the part), who is said to be a professional Hollywood makeup artist. Together, they discuss how make-up appliances are used in the Horror film genre to create the effects of blood and gore, as well as the appearances of many famous movie monsters. In particular, they mention the works of several famous horror makeup artists, such as Lon Chaney, Jack Pierce, and Rick Baker; along with discussing how the elaborate effects were done for films like the Universal Classic Monsters series, An American Werewolf in London, and The Mummy (2017). On top of everything, Hilarity Ensues throughout the show via the hosts' various antics.When the show first started up, it was known as The Phantom of the Opera Horror Make-Up Show and featured a pre-show with the famed phantom, but over time was changed to put the focus on all of the horror genre. The show itself has also gone through a few changes, with the films discussed and featured being swapped out over time to remain up-to-date. |

What Do You Mean, It's Not for Kids?: Invoked; the show involves copious amounts of horror and gore, and spends a lot of its runtime making fun of clueless parents who brought their children to see it, with a Running Gag focusing on Mark/Marty antagonizing one particular kid in the audience. |

TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers |
| | Universal's Horror Make-Up Show (Theatre) / int_378039e |
comment |
The Last of These Is Not Like the Others: When showing the monsters Jack Pierce helped to create for Universal, Mark/Marty names each of the monsters as they appear on screen, only to name the last two (Bride of Frankenstein and Frankenstein's Monster) as "Lady Gaga" and "Kanye West". During the former Wolfman segment, Mark/Marty would show a series of clips of the title character growling while he/she made a "roar" sound for each of them. On the last clip, instead of doing the "roar" sound, he/she would either menacingly say the name of the kid in the audience from earlier, or do a kitten-like "meow". In visual-gag form, the stage features a variety of horror-creature masks being displayed on shelves, with the masks on the far-right being of Fred and Barney from The Flintstones. |

Funny Foreigner |
| | Universal's Horror Make-Up Show (Theatre) / int_434d893c |
comment |
Funny Foreigner: The volunteer that Alex picks is often a foreigner, as the hosts use the occasional awkwardness generated from such to a comedic advantage. Given that the "volunteer" does not speak before Alex chooses them, he is choosing based on nothing but skin color. This leads to Mistaken for Foreigner any time the chosen audience member is an American of non-European heritage. |

Zig-Zagging Trope: When Mark/Marty suddenly plans to chop off the volunteers arm with a large knife, he/she shortly after says, "I'm kidding, I'm kidding. I'm not gonna hurt you with this, don't worry...I'm going to use the smaller, sharper one." This is then subverted a third time when he/she reveals that they're just using a prop knife on her to further demonstrate how gore effects are made. |

Gory Deadly Overkill Title of Fatal Death |
| | Universal's Horror Make-Up Show (Theatre) / int_b23fd448 |
comment |
Gory Deadly Overkill Title of Fatal Death: The original title of the show was changed fairly early in the '90s to The Gory, Gruesome and Grotesque Horror Make-Up Show, presumably as a way of keeping sensitive audiences from seeing it. Alternatively, as the travel guide Walt Disney World for Families humorously mused, it was a way of making the show more attractive to horror-loving kids — "while they may not have known who the Phantom [of the Opera] was, they all knew what gory and gruesome meant." |

comment |
Killer Gorilla: Subverted in the original version of the show. A giant gorilla would suddenly pop out and briefly rampage through the set, until it's revealed that it was just one of Mark/Marty's friends in a costume. |

Who's Laughing Now? |
| | Universal's Horror Make-Up Show (Theatre) / int_f438b11b |
comment |
Who's Laughing Now?: During Mark/Marty's "death" at the beginning of the show, he/she reaches out to one of the guests for help, but often gets laughed at by them in response. Later, when Mark/Marty squirts the audience with fake blood, he/she specifically targets that same guest whilst happily mocking them. |

comment |
Our Werewolves Are Different: As mentioned before, Mark/Marty creates their own robot werewolf for the purpose of using on a children's show. The werewolf basically looks like a fusion between a werewolf and the Hulk. |

Practical Effects/Computer-Generated Images: The show mostly focuses on discussing on how the former is used in horror films, but it does briefly dwelve into how the latter is used during The Mummy segment. |

Depending on the Writer: The show's script is constantly being tweaked by the actors in order to keep things fresh, so some of the tropes you see here may not be present in the version of the show you watch. |
