“Prosthetics are amazing these days, this [his horns] is like a transfer tattoo — they just peel the backing off and it sticks,” the 23-year-old actor said. There’s a bit of touching up involved as well. Radcliffe is in the make-up chair for 45 minutes each day as the effect is created, and up close it looks uncanny, the goat-like horns seeming to rip through the skin of his forehead.In Horns, from the hit novel by Joe Hill, Radcliffe stars as Ig Perrish, a guy who wakes up with a pair of mysterious horns to find that he’s the prime suspect in his girlfriend’s death. “It’s a metamorphosis story, but the thing that excited me was that tonally it wasn’t like anything I had read,” he says. “It was both incredibly dark — like really dark and violent, and full of classic horror stuff — but also it has a very dry sense of humour.”

[…]“The nature of the horns means that any time I meet somebody, they end up telling me their deepest, darkest revelations. So even a small scene like this becomes incredibly intense.”

As to that American accent, “there are certain words — murderer is a hard word to say because there’s so many f—ing Rs in it, and girlfriend. Now, unfortunately those are two of the words I use most in this movie.”

“It’s a really cool time for me,” Radcliffe says. “I’m getting to a point where I can step back and appreciate how great this year has been.” Finished and awaiting release are the feature Kill Your Darlings, with Radcliffe as the young poet Allen Ginsberg, and the just-finished comic romance The F Word, filmed in Toronto with Canadian director Mike Dowse (Goon).

Radcliffe also filmed a role in the British TV mini-series A Young Doctor’s Notebook, starring alongside Mad Men’s Jon Hamm. “They’re all really different, they’re all interesting and weird, or have something weird about them,” Radcliffe says. “I feel like the best work I have done yet in my career, I have done this year.”
