Partial ice cover on an antique hair dryer. Overcast daylight wasn't working well with the seemingly opaque darkness of these rooms, so I combined a quick exposure with my surefire flashlight to avoid obnoxious glare. Worked out well enough!

Nature always does a better job than special effects. I've seen some movie sets in these places that are horrid in comparison. It's amazing how they can make such a cheaply built scene look realistic in film.
I saw the sets for this movie: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0261983/
They were terrible in person.

Wow, you saw the sets for 'Session 9'? That was the movie that put Brad Anderson on the map for me (can't wait for 'Transsiberian').
I've heard tell that actor's makeup often looks horrible when you see it live, but somehow the camera turns it into movie magic. I guess it's true for the sets too.

Light and editing can do some pretty amazing things. I'd never seen a movie set until then. Looking back, I still can't believe it was used.
I saw the wall they built where one of the workers pulled a brick and started collecting coins from the morgue. That wall was in a building which wasn't even remotely close to the morgue, but right down the hall from another room which was left intact and untouched for an earlier scene. It must be easier to keep all of that equipment in one localized area for ease of movement.
