Hannibal Lecter restraint mask / muzzle Silence of the Lambs replica


Having a friend for dinner? Our replica of the clinical bite restraint muzzle makes an excellent accompaniment to your fine china.

The prop is fabricated from fibre backed polyester, tinted to match the onscreen colours, and just slightly translucent. Stainless steel bars cover the mouth to prevent even the smallest opportunity.

Muzzling Disturbed

The muzzles we made for David Draiman (lead singer of 'Disturbed') were not enough to keep him silent for long during their 2008 tour.

The weathered textures of the surface are also intentional, and elude to a prop with some history.

Extensive investigation into the muzzle revealed a third strap harness set, featured here in a matte leather. The usage of the three strap system ensure a secure form fit.

The Process

As we wanted to get the scale of the mask accurately, we sculpted the muzzle on a lifecast of Anthony Hopkins.

Shown here is the stone cast prior to moulding. The pits and markings indicate where holes and ports will be cut into the fibreglass casting, some for breathing, some for restraining!

On Stage
