Last Minute 2011 Movie-Inspired Halloween Costume Ideas From Your Friendly Movieline Editors
Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games
Lionsgate's take on Suzanne Collins's teen novel series doesn't hit theaters until next year, but it's not too early to thrown on some sporty wear and hunting gear and pretend you're a teen battling for your life on national television! Just throw on some Eddie Bauer outerwear, pick up a bow and arrows, braid your hair a la Jennifer Lawrence, and complete your ensemble with two gentleman companions -- one brunette and one blonde -- who spend the night competing for your affections. - JY
Fellas, here's a costume with an eye toward this holiday movie season! All you need is A) a turn-of-the-century dress, complete with ladies' Victorian-era hat, and B) copious amounts of blue eye shadow. Extra points for bringing it with a rapier wit and deconstructing the physics around you at every moment of your Halloween night, though you might also need your own Watson along to rein in the RDJ spirit. - JY
Pregnant Bella Swan
Spoiler alert, if you haven't read The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (in which case, this isn't the costume for you anyhow): Young fang-banger Bella Swan gets married, has butter-colored sex, and gets pregnant. So this one's easy, kinda! Wear totally average young people clothes (jeans and shirt will suffice), stuff your belly with a pillow, and affix a hybrid creature to the front of it, clawing its way out. Add feathers in your hair for an added touch. At least the tweens in your 'hood will get it. - JY
NC-17 Michael Fassbender in Shame
For the male minimalist/exhibitionist/Oscar watcher out there; walk around naked, like it ain't no thing. Stare brazenly at strange women on the street. Hang your head in desperate self-loathing when not staring brazenly at strange women on the street. May require prosthetics to get to authentic Fassboner levels. Also may get you arrested. (Fair warning.)
For the trick-or-treater who prefers jauntiness to scariness, this mild-mannered crossdressing troubadour is just right for you. Your Albert Nobbs getup Take a cheap bowler, a matching three-piece suit, the grim stare of an incognito 19th century dame, and you're ready to rack up plenty of sweet treats and an obligatory Oscar nomination! - Louis Virtel
BONUS:
Forget "Like a Virgin" Madonna, "Material Girl" Madonna, and "Vogue" Madonna -- we're entering a whole new phase of glamor with "Film Festival Madonna," a costume that just requires a brassy wig, a freakishly expensive sheath dress, an anti-hydrangea pendant (try Urban Outfitters!), and bratty little children and boyfriends who conspire to steal your youth. Completists: Commit to a manufactured accent and farfetched comparisons between yourself and Wallis Simpson. - LV

This year, I'm going to a party as Judge Dredd, and halfway through the party, I'm going to have the director replaced, but issue a vague "It was the plan the whole time" press release.
(And no, the mask will not come off. But there may be some "I AM THE LAAAAWWWW" utterances)
