I'm dying to make stuff in Latex. I saw Jordu Schell in Movie FX Magazine DVD working with a 1 part liquid latex that he poured into a mask mold and wait for 1 hour then pour the rest back into the container. The mask dried and shrank and easily pulled off the mold. This stuff is great I'm dying to get my hands on this stuff. Its better than using resin which is more toxic and requires a 2 mixing and curing.

I use latex in almost all my prosthetic pieces and have to agree on Monster Makers stuff. Their RD-407 is great stuff. Durable, easy to work with, and flexible. For filler, I use either cold-foam latex or some expanding foam gelatin (but you need a 2-part mold for either of these).
