R
In Warm Bodies, R (Nicholas Hoult) is not your typical zombie. He is able to communicate, granted with grunts and moans. He gets enjoyment from eating food, granted by devouring human brains and experiencing their memories. And he falls in love with the non-zombie Julie Grigio, granted after consuming her boyfriend.
Michael Moore
Michael Moore is an American activist and filmmaker, most notable for making the documentaries Bowling for Columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11, and Sicko. While his films are certainly attention getting, you couldn’t say the same for his outfit, bullhorn notwithstanding.
L.B. “Jeff” Jeffries
In Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window, L.B. “Jeff” Jeffries (James Stewart) is a photographer who breaks his leg and is confined to his Greenwich Village apartment. To pass the time, he spies on his neighbors using his telephoto camera. It’s all in good fun until he glimpses what he believes to be a murder. For this costume, you’ll need to make your own a fake leg cast.
Madeleine Elster
In Vertigo, Madeleine Elster (played by Kim Novak) fears that she’s been possessed by her great grandmother who committed suicide. A retired detective is hired to secretly tail her and make sure she stays safe, but he doesn’t do such a great job when his fear of heights comes into play.
Hector Salamanca
In Breaking Bad, Mark Margolis plays Hector “Tio” Salamanca, Tuco’s uncle and a formerly feared enforcer for Don Eladio. In old age, he is wheelchair-bound and unable to speak, but the brass service bell he uses to communicate is nearly as dangerous as anything he could say.
Minecraft Steve
In Minecraft, the player Steve might not be pretty, but he gets the job done. He spends many hours roaming the sandbox environment, mining resources, building shelters, and surviving mobs. Don’t look now, Steve, but you’ve got some creepers creeping.
Cole MacGrath from inFAMOUS 2
In inFAMOUS 2, Cole MacGrath is granted the electric-based super power, which has the unfortunate side effect of siphoning energy from other humans. He’ll soon have to make a tough decision between saving thousands of Conduits like himself, or sacrificing them to save millions of people who have come to despise him.
Ezio from Assassin’s Creed II
In Assassin’s Creed II, Desmond uses an improved version of the Animus to view Ezio Auditore da Firenze, a nobleman from the late 15th century in Florence. Ezio witnesses the execution of his father and brothers by order of a corrupt official named Borgia and sets out for revenge against him and the Templars.
