The countdown for Halloween has begun and its time to give a serious look at your wardrobe. How about being a little creative and saving some money at the same time. Instead of removing your old clothes from your cabinet, you can plan to reuse them this year. Lets think of some movie inspired costumes from 2009 films.
Here are our movie picks for Halloween:
Where the Wild Things Are
Who ever you want to look like : Carol, KW, Alexander, Douglas, Ira, or Judith, you would simply look rocking. The costumes will not only look great but will also keep you warm on the chilly night.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
This would be difficult for you but indefinitely interesting. You have the variety of option to chose from good guys Optimus Prime or Bumblebee and the bad guys like Megatron or the Fallen. Instead of using metals, you can use plastic and cardboards with metals paints on it to make the costumes.
Inglourious Basterds
Pick up any Basterd and go get dressed like him. Try out the the neck scar and sport an awesome Italian accent to make your look more realistic. You might even try out a Nazi look.
Drag Me to Hell
Your outfit will look strikingly different from those of others with a stringy wig, torn clothes and some creepy teeth and contacts and you’ll send people running to the hills!
Watchmen
Any costume from the film would be an obvious challenge, but the most difficult one surely would be Dr. Manhattan. You have to find a blue body paint since hypothermia should cover the blue-skin end of the costume. Just remember to cover your junk, or you’ll get arrested.
