I think the notion of a Zombie Jesus Christ (complete with festering nail and spear wounds) is both gross and irreverent.
How about really giving it to the vampire losers and having an Edward Cullen zombie (From Twilight). He’d have his stupid sparkling skin, twilight shirt and goofy haircut but then a huge bloody bite mark on the neck.
I love the idea of combining normal fancy dress outfits with zombie makeup.
I’ll set myself some limitations so as not to go too crazy. I’m a guy, so I’ll avoid trying to pass as a woman (I really couldn’t pull that off). And only costumes I’d like to actually try out, so no Zombie Batman or Superman for me.
Actually, I could go on forever with this. It’s a lot of fun.
Zombie Airline Pilot – probably need a haircut to manage this one, but I like the idea of the bloodied pilot wings insignia and the perpetual smile of a ripped open jaw.
Zombie Casanova – with powdered wig and 18th century clothing. Great contrast and you also get to look good while being a member of the living dead.
Zombie Scotsman – kilt and all. Scotsmen make great undead.
Zombie Monk – complete with cassock, crucifix and fake tonsure. Fake bald patch would have to be suitably made up to look grey along with the rest of the face. In fact, this could be even more interesting if you were a member of the Spanish Inquisition, as then I believe you could skip the tonsure and have a menacing beard.
The list is endless: Zombie Roman, Zombie Elizabethan, Zombie WWI soldier. Now if I only had a Halloween party to go to!
Dress up like your typical old school flasher with the trench coat. But have a little blood on your face and when you open up the coat is should appear as if all your insides are completely disembowled and dangling about.
Dress up like Barney from the Simpsons, get some good blood and gore on your shirt and face, and definitely have on hand some sort of zombie limb or entrails.
To explain: Treehouse of Horror III… Barney get caught gnawing on a dead body and replies, “I’m not a Zombie, but when in Rome…”
Road Kill Kitten (akaZombie catgirl) Complete with tire tracks
Here is some good ones:
Zombie George A. Romero
Zombie Pope
Zombie Carrot Top
I like the pope one
Amish Zombie with the big black hat.
Zombie Jay Leno, complete with extend-o-chin.
Attach like 5 dummies dressed up like zombies to you and grabbing you in different places and stuff and biting your neck, and have you be the victim getting eaten. i describe it horribly, but the picture in my head is pretty cool.
Zombie Stephen Hawking – wheelchair and glasses and all
Dress as the zombie form of that moustache-combing gang member from the original Dawn of the Dead (Blades, I believe his name is). Apply over-the-top blue make-up and neon-bright blood, or pehaps try a more realistic rotten corpse approach to terrify the lil’ children trick r’ treating.
Sport a trendy gunshot wound and broken limbs. And don’t forget your bloodied machete (available at any department store)! Complete the look with your switch-blade moustache comb, keeping your chic 70’s moustache as “ha-cha-cha” as ever. A zombie’s got to look his best.
Zombie Bill, Francis, Zoey, and Luis Because they are dead now that L4D 2 is on its way.
classic zombie clown (scary for everyone)
Zombie Bill Murray
Zombie banana ( don’t ask I am hungry)
I have a feeling that there are going to be a lot of zombie MJs out there
I’ll get the ball rolling with a couple examples:
Sarah Palin Zombie
Pregnant Woman Zombie
Now come on people. Show me you can do better than that!
You should upgrade the pregnant woman Zombie
Have a zombie baby bursting out of her stomach
the baby should be dragging by the uncut ambilical chord. ..just sayin
Gross!!! I like it.
