I love Halloween. As soon as September rolls in I start thinking about what my costume will be and anticipate the early sunsets and cool evenings to come. Everything about it fills me with joy: the costumes, the candy, the parties, and most importantly the movies. And what better way to connect with your favorite films then to spend a night as your favorite character? 2016 has so far been a lackluster year for genre movies. By the time October 31st rolls around I’m sure that we will be seeing throngs of both male and female Ghostbusters and Deadpool. If you’re looking for some costume inspiration then you’re in luck, because I’ve compiled a list of 2016 characters that are sure to leave an impression with any die hard film or tv fan.

All That Heaven Allows

Directed by Douglas Sirk (1955)
by Joseph Juhase

Douglas Sirk's film, All That Heaven Allows, is the epitome of the 1950's Hollywood melodrama. From its lush score, impassioned verbal exchanges, and moments where you can't help but roll your eyes, it hardly seems like a strong pick for a Criterion Film. However, Sirk's use of cinematography and Technicolor elevate the piece above the usual romantic fare Hollywood was churning out back then. It also stars the dreamy Rock Hudson, whose homosexuality was an open secret in Hollywood, in one of his countless heartthrob roles.
