how were elves turned into orcs ? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I thought they were tortured physically...in The Fellowship of the Ring the movie, it shows the Uruk-hai under a mud thing (for lack of a better term [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]). I think this changed his features - maybe it was very hot, maybe it was magical. Saruman also says in the movie, 'They were Elves once...tortured, and mutilated...a ruined and terrible form of life...now perfected.' when he talks about Orcs into Uruk-hai.
