Anita Waxing (I Need a Waxing) Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #145


Let's go Europe, let's go! The Anita Waxing Halloween Costume (I Need a Waxing) proudly displays a noticeably suspicious mop of fluffiness tumbling out of the southern regions of a bright red swimsuit / unitard in the manner of "female" Eastern European Olympiads circa 1985. Perfect for feminist-loving, anti-Brazilian males who've never laid eyes on a Victoria's Secret catalog. With this version's life guard / Baywatch-bright swimsuit, the whole costume is a complete Pam Anderson meets Grizzly Adams magnificence.

Note:  the LeAnn Rimes wig is sold separately.

Scarface Tony Montana Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #142

The Scarface / Tony Montana Halloween Costume is the quintessential college man's milieux, right up there with beer pong, corn nuts and illegal hazing... that is, way overplayed. Heavens knows why we need to glorify the thug life,l even with someone as sharply dressed as Tony. Guaranteed, if you show up to the party as this guy, you'll meet at least five others. So if you want to sail around South Beach, you'd better be damn sure you're the most smokin' one if you ever want to score an Elvira.

Sausage and Meatballs Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #137

Sausage and Meatballs Halloween Costume. Mamma mia! Stay out of the cucina! The Sausage and Meatballs Halloween Costume, served right by the outfitter's Long John Silver, exploits the stereotype that Italian men are nothing more than a raging tube of carnal appetites. Craftily delivered by a smiling dark-haired guido in a "Longuini" apron, the Sausage and Meatballs Halloween Costume distorts perfectly delicious Italian cuisine and serves it up in a coming-on-way-too-strong manner directly from the streets of Roma. Oh dio.

Italian Momma Strega Nonna Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costumes #110

From the 2007 Archives:

I feel the same way as the activists do about this Italian Momma. How DARE Fright Catalog assume that my Italian Nonna is as scary as Leatherface! So what if I was beaten as a child by a wooden spoon? And if I was banned from even looking at knickknacks and plastic-covered furniture it was out of love, damn it!

The Italian Momma / Strega Nonna Halloween Costume is available from Fright Catalog.

Hari Krishna Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #61

From the 2007 Archives:

Yo dude, ragging on other people’s (or your own) religion just isn’t cool. And the costume description for this Hari Krishna Halloween Costume just ain’t right either, “Don’t wear this get up to the airport or you may get into a turf war.” Hee hee. I mean, I would stay away from the Wawas too. Sacrilege!

Arabian Sheik Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #36

From the 2006 Archives:

White man dons lots of cloth, bad beard and velcroed sandals to complete sheik-dom in the Arabian Sheik Halloween Costume.  Not exactly "convincing."  But it does look pretty comfortable for summer in the San Fernando Valley.  Weren't a bunch of these guys stuffed into a VW van attempting to carry out death and destruction in the Back to the Future franchise?  I imagine less learned folk might find this scary if accented by heavy artillery but unless you want to be tarred and feathered or quartered by a couple of Ford pickups, I advise against running around in this costume.

Child Sumo Wrestler Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #30

From the 2006 Archives:

The Child Sumo Wrestler Halloween Costume celebrates chub with a little more grace and a thong.  But parents, have you not been listening to all Halloween safety warnings?  Razor blades in apples, crack in fun-size snickers?  Costumes that are non-reflective and immobile?  Do you even know how easy it would be to roll one of these little kid sumo wrestlers into the back seat of an unmarked white cargo van?  Please, use some common sense.  Say, "sayonara" to the Child Sumo Wrestler Halloween Costume.
