Description
Okay, I have no idea what the official name of this nasty critter is, but this is my brother's Halloween costume for this year.... it's from the movie "Time bandits"... at the end of the movie when the boy is running around hiding from Evil, he chased by these things.... they're ugly, about 10 foot tall, with one hook for hand, and they shoot fire-balls from their eye holes. And they're guaranteed to scare the crap out of 10-year-old kids.
(Yeah, I was a warped child. 
) A surprisingly effective last-minute costume.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's surprising how may people are sacred of that! I'd love to get this costume in a crowd one day and see what would happen. (Love the movie, but I was a twisted little kid)

That would be awesome!!!! I was Buckethead for halloween, which was kinda funny because he's really tall and I'm not, I'm a whole foot shorter than he is.

My sister did a Lurtz (sp?) costume a few years ago and she look pretty spot on, even if she's about 2 feet shorter and 200 pounds lighter.

Awesome. Just awesome. These guys are so terrifying, and no one ever knows what I'm talking about when I reference them.

I'd say that's a rather appropriate name. ^^

XD I love it! I need to cobble together something like that for next Hallowe'en!

It was super easy, which was great, since bro doesn't really put a lot in to his costumes... ( I always end up sewing them!)

I can't really say much. I wasn't able to finish what I wanted to for Hallowe'en, so I made a pair of horns and wore them around town.

Well, my Mad Red was a compromise costume for me to... I was going to do a Dark harlequin of my own design, but things didn't work in my favor.

I finished the raven's head I was going to wear for Hallowe'en about a week after the fact. (argh!) I was hoping to scare small children...oh, well, there's always next year.
Dark harlequin, eh? Sounds neat! I'd like to design costumes and more ambitious plushies myself, but alas, I have no sewing machine. *hand hurts* So, the most I'm really up to is felt plushies and doll clothes. XS

Woa.. this is bloody brilliant!! Probably would have scared the living daylights out of me if I saw it moving.. but that just makes it awesome!
Cow skull... eek. Where did you get that?

Thanks! It was pretty effective.

And yes, those things were terrifying.
By the way, where'd you get the skull? Wouldn't it be heavy?

I'd have to agree ^_^ Did you end up using the Death robes for this?

^_^ Yes, I did! I was woundering if anyone would notice.
