So Halloween's coming up...costumes?
 

What's your costume plans, guys? What previous costumes have you done?

Last year I didn't know what to do, so I just bought an orange turtleneck, white ski vest and dark green skirt, then had my friend make me a rusty pipe out of paper mache. So I was Heather Mason from Silent Hill 3. I just wanted a costume I didn't have to change my hair for. I got to participate in a zombie walk with some L4D survivors; it was fun, but I still cringe thinking about the blisters. But I don't plan on using the Heather costume again since it was so rushed and mostly store-bought pieces.

This year I guess I'll use the Lili costume I had for Otakon. I'm surprised it remained completely in one piece after the con. Of course, I don't really know what I'd wear the costume for. So maybe I'll just forget it.

Someone should make a really nice Pickleman costume.

I'm probably going to be one of the guys from Ghoul like I was last year. No one knew who I was but people were legitimately afraid of me and would move across the room from me if they could. I also won 2nd place in a costume contest I didn't enter and the judges didn't bother asking what or who I was before scoring or however it worked.

My new girl saw last years Black Sea Fleet costume and she wants us to go as matching sailors.

my costume is murder

I'm trying to get my girl to go as pregnant Trudy this year. If that doesn't work I'll need a new costume too.

I'm going to be lame and dress up as a soldier zombie. This is lame because I'm a veteran so I'm just going to put on my old uniform and makeup.

THE BUS GIRL? :O

Last year I went as Sam from Trick 'r Treat, not sure about this year. Probably something without a mask though.

we need a thread about what people from here SHOULD be for halloween, because that could be hilarious yet damaging

Kitsa, you could be the heroine from Rawhead Rex.

pics? I'm too uninformed to google it adequately.

I was imagining it was going to be a really cutting suggestion but it doesn't seem to be at all. It looks like you just need jeans and flannel.

Considering Vault Boy.

captain spaulding again lol

I'm going to be Fiona from Shrek (fat green version) if I can ever track down a damn wig. I have a green silk dancing costume from India that should work as a gown, if people ignore the embroidered dancers along the hem.

Miss Hitler revoked her "I just want to be friends" stance.

Kitsa, I think you would make a lovely chubby, green ogre.

I have no clue. So probably a last minute zombie costume made by blooding up clothes I don't wear anymore.

saria!

Nice.

Speaking of bus girl, everyone keep your eyes peeled for Amber Lamps.

How does one become a good Amber Lamps? Have a guy with a beard beat a black guy while you stand by uninterested?

She was wearing something pretty recognizable. It wouldn't be too hard.

Will you have a bucket of fried chicken too?

i do even when i'm not in character i just need one of thosse tiny top hats

Thanks.

Any ideas for halloween costumes for couples. I've gone as Peg and Al Bundy before but that's it.

Trotsky and Frida

Thinking about

:lol

I don't know if this outfit would be easy or hard to put together :(
also i think he wears leopard print pajama bottoms

also i dont know which one was the girl :(

you could be fred and daphne! which is easy peasy sauce. :3..but not that cool i suppose.

The rolling Stones?

I'm sure your girlfriend would make a great Barf.

Same thing as last year, the host at the haunted house I work at. By Halloween, it's probably gonna just be an old t shirt and jeans (we closed on Sunday)... and a trip to Dunkin Donuts for last chance Halloween donuts.

I have changed my mind. I am going to dress as Marv from Sin City. I am digging out my old service trenchcoat and some medical tape. I'm ugly enough I could pass for him.

You know what costume I saw today that really surprised me?

This.

As in, this.


(creepy chick from Big Love! Creepy chick from Big Love/Grandma from Napoleon dynamite!)

The Joker from the Dark Knight

I really really want to make a Tarman from 'Return of the Living Dead' costume, but I'm not sure how expensive it would be to make. Also if I am thin enough to pull it off. Maybe clever use of some black latex. Also I have no idea how to make him look wet enough.

I support you in your quest Supafly.

I'm going to dress as a nudist this Halloween season. Anyone care to join me?

Ah, new serverdom erased my extremely helpful post about the Cap'n Jonathan from Deadliest Catch costume :(

You're welcome.

Of. Fuck the new server deleted my neweest posts. And they were giood bitches/.

Stupid.com has a selection. Bonus points to anyone who can combine the fart-o-meter costume with something else.

It'll be a hinky-dinky-dooda morning before that can happen.

What the fuck did you just say?

I second that

He's from Utah and that's how they talk.

LOL. Utahns say goofy things like coinky-dink, but the line was a quote from "Nudist Camp of the Dead." They sing a song called "hinky-dinky-doo-da morning." The Cinema Snob made a crack, "They really wanna say shpadoinkel don't they?"

Jee-ma-nee Christmas.

I thought for sure this costume was going to be called Eugene Hutz.



Move mouse away from product image to close this window.

Moving my mouse away from that image definitely did not make it go away.

I'm going to wear my suit, a pair of black sunglasses and an earpiece and go as a fat fed. I'm too fat for cool costumes I guess.

im going as santa

TOTAL MINDFUCK

EDIT: ACHEWOOD AVATAR I WILL FIGHT U

i kind of want to go as coach from l4d2 but idk if it'd work without me being black, and i don't think that blackface is a great idea.

You don't mess with willie.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it if you're going as a character.

I agree. If anyone gives you crap, just say you're "Wa Coach". Like Waluigi.

Dress rehearsal without the gown. I didn't want to run out of green so I photoshopped my throat to match.

You need to green your kid up so it looks like a little ogre-ling

Looks good, but maybe you could switch it up once in a while and pose differently.

I'll fix my neck when you fix your back, asshat

hahahahaha

:lol

Looks impressive, Kitsa.

That looks wonderful, Kitsa!

Nicely done. Is that your hair, dyed, or a wig, Kitsa?

My own hair is red, but not bright enough to be Fiona, so this is a wig. Thanks.

That's a sweet Fiona Kitsa.

Bah...wanted to go as the Alien Queen, but that costume didn't work out :( so I don't know. I suppose I could get two friends and go as the human centipede...I'M BEING IN FRONT!

my boyfriend and i are going as a couple of the villain biker gang from mad max this year.
kitsa you look adorable!!!!

you COULD be that typical 80's biker leader/gay sidekick couple from the second mad max (i think it was the second one). All you need is crazy hair and a crazy cackle; also to look at balls a lot.

I bought this for Halloween.

It look's pretty badass, but I ordered it online so there's no telling what I am gonna get.

My friend made his costume this year the phone booth from Bill and Ted's most excellent adventure. Not a guy in a phone booth, mind you. Just the phone booth. It's awesome.

Part of me is seriously considering going as a Doeo.

Kenny Power most likely but I'll probably end up doing absolutely nothing.

Awesome!

Roxy would be awesome to go as.

Also awesome!

Hmm... another cool costume idea would be to hollow out an old tv set,
cut holes for your head and arms, stick some antennae on your head
and go as Freddy from that one scene in Elm Street 3. Welcome to prime time b***!

Last year I went as "Hilary Clinton Clown", where I dressed as a clown and wore a Hilary Clinton mask to show my disdain for her.

This year I plan on dressing as Burt Reynolds, and imitate Norm MacDonald's impersonation of him from Saturday Night Live.

Pirate costumes + face paint = skeleton pirates.

I heartily endorse this endeavor! I request pictures.

in my case this isnt doable because
a) i couldnt hold a midget on my back all night and
b) i cant afford to hire a midget

but IF i could i would hire one and be MASTER BLASTER from "Mad Max: Beyond the Thunderdome"


or i could be the "Id buy THAT for a dollar guy on robocop

Being classic Jason. From Friday the 13th Part 2. Got the blue flannel shirt, overalls, pillowcase with one eye hole, and a prop pickaxe.

dude you could just buy a huge doll or some shit and put it on your back

motorbike rosalina next yeaaar

You could always try making a doll or something that looked like Master. Or if in the end your arms didnt look to fucked up you could do that thing where your head is Master and you just have Blasters helmet attached to your upper chest / neck / chin or something.

Or you could get some redneck teeth and just go as Blaster during the Thunderdome battle.

I've also started a mummy costume for a separate event... not sure how it's going to turn out just yet.

I'm going as a future viking. Got the fake beard, viking helmet, vest that I'm covering in aluminum foil, and a toy laser gun. I'll put pictures up soon.

Me and my buddy Corwyn are going as Supernatual Mario Brothers. Instead af Dean and Sam, it's Mario and Luigi!

You need some cyber ale too.

Going to be Finn from Adventure Time. The girlfriend is making the hat for me, because I can't sew worth crap.

After some wait... My one costume has been completed! It was for the London Zombie Walk! (pics stolen from posts on the event's page)



Also I'm featured in this youtube video, which also shows some great other zombies.

Cool.

My daughter made me so proud last night. We were at a packed mall trick-or-treat event and Ronald McDonald was doing a "meet and greet". I mean, people were acting like he was a rockstar, he had handlers passing out coupons for hamburgers, it was pretty insane.

Anyway, he was smack dab in the middle of this gigantic crowd of kids all trying to talk to him, big ring of parents trying to take pictures of their kid with the guy in the Ronald McDonald suit, and so on. It had to be at least 15 people deep surrounding him on all sides, everyone wanting his attention, and what does he do?

Glances up over all the kids, mouth drops open, seems to forget who he is for a second, points and shouts with utter excitement and joy:

"OMG IT'S THE STAY-PUFT MARSHMALLOW MAN!"

:lol

Haha, even celebrities like some guy in a fast food character costume can be human too.


And Mario; that is all kinds of fucking awesome. I hope you got lots of kudos for being brave enough to go mummy at a zombie walk. Definitely awesome.

NO

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I thought it said something quite poetic about some random guy, having become a celebrity because he was in a Ronald McDonald suit and makeup, being temporarily starstruck by a random baby in a Stay-Puft suit.

What the hell? I thought I was the forum's token emo kid! >:
