It's a (really neat) variation of the typical inverted masks you see in like haunted houses and stuff. Really neat! :D

5 seconds into the video I all ready knew how it was done. I did something like this back in High School but mine was a snake.

Now I have a good question. If someone where to make this in a 3D modeling program, would it have the same effect? Because this would be a really cool addition for like a statue in some maps or somethin.

I imagine if you can see that on your 2d monitor, it wouldn't be any different for a 3d model.

Yea, it works REAL good in the 3d modeller. I mean, it is just so amazing.

I need to get some interweb space on the internets so I can show you creatures. :D

Since it only works in certain angles, would it be good to suggest that such an abomination be placed against a wall or in a corner while it stares me down?
