"Mars Attacks!" Original Production Used Storyboard Drawing by Pete Von Sholly (Warner Brothers, 1996)
Martians and humans engage in a surgical game in this exceptional original storyboard page from Tim Burton's black comedy film. The page features five hand-drawn panels created in graphite.
This storyboard was created by longtime storyboard artist Pete Von Sholly and includes his handwritten notes. The scene was cut from the film during production, making this storyboard even rarer. In this deleted scene, the Martians operate on a human and show far less seriousness than in the final version of the movie, playing hot potato and tug-of-war with the man's organs.
This rare scene perfectly captures the dark humor of the film and is an ideal collectible for fans of this eccentric 1996 work. Handwritten notes are present on the page.
