Special FX: Almost-free Squirting Blood Effect

Step 8Blood Recipe

Blood Recipe
This recipe for blood is so simple, anybody can do it. It is specially formulated to be extremely visible when sprayed or pumped. It is safe to drink, and washes out of most clothing (I won't make any guarantees, just use items you don't really care about when using this effect.)

Off-brand Cherry punch mix - About $.10 a pack, and cases from warehouse stores make it even cheaper.
Water - I used 1 qt per pack of punch mix

Mix, and put it into your blood container. If you are lazy like me, just mix it in the container.

Bonus Points:

If you are going to have blood pooling, or moving slowly along skin, start with half the water and add:
Light corn syrup (No measuring. Keep adding until it is thick enough.)
A dash of chocolate syrup (For a little cloudiness)

If you don't feel like throwing away sweet things, you can use cornstarch or powdered gelatin. You're just going to end up cooking the blood until it gets where you want it.
