The $20 Monster Challenge!

[SynapticBoomstick]

Crap! You've used almost all of your budget on actors, sets and script! More crap! You only have $20 left to complete your movie monster! What would you do in such an instance? My goal here is to have as many people as possible make a monster costume/design worthy of Ed Wood himself (whether you actually use any money is up to you ) Include a description of what your monster is, a picture (photo or artwork, whatever), and what the monster is made from.

One Example:
Grimbo
Movie: Terror of the Woods

Grimbo is a horrid abomination of nature who devourers his victims whole, preferring the taste of flesh smudged with dirt from a trip over flat ground. The grizzly remains of his last meal can still be heard in his huge gut.

Items
1. Driveway Reflectors- Glowing Red Eyes!
2. A Laundry Bag- The Huge Gut!
3. Billiard Balls- Cracking Bones in The Huge Gut!
4. Fake Nails- Rending Claws!
5. Bear Slippers- Horrible Clawed Feet!
6. Stockings- Wrinkly Deformed Arms!
7. Plastic Vampire Teeth- Ripping Jaws!
8. Imitation Fur- Shaggy Body!
9. Ski Mask- Horrible Face Void of Emotion!
10. Fake Blood- Real Blood!

You could even go worse than that!

Horrificator
Movie: Space Mutant Horrificator

Horrificator was a human space captain until his ship was attacked by space pirates under the guide of Buccaneer Bilxby. The captain was dragged behind the ship in his spacesuit, where he was bombarded by cosmic rays and the energy of a black hole. This, mixed with radiation from the ship's engines, transformed him into a twisted, murderous mutant bent on regaining his ship. Slowly, he turns each pirate into a mutant before overwhelming Bilxby in a wave of bestial rage never before seen on the big screen!

1. Rubber body suit - the deformed body!
2. Bug-eye glasses - the distorted visage!
3. Red paint - the radiation burns that fuel his madness!
4. plastic trash bags - the slag remains of his spacesuit!
5. the sound of a burp mixes with the hiss of a cat manipulated with a recorder - THE BEASTIAL RAGE!

I hope this is an idea that will catch on but for now I wait and see where interests lie. I don't know why I included the poll, just curious.

Somewhere around here, I have a balaclava & a pair of Bubble goggles.
Separately, they look pretty cool. Together, they make you look like some goofy lizard man or human fly from one of those early '70s Saturday morning kids' shows.

When I was back in school, I watched American Werewolf with a friend. Afterwards we went to a club outside of town. At night, I walked back home, alone, across the fields, and of course it was full moon. However, that didn't creep me out that much. At home I went to bed, read something, and eventually turned around and switched off the light. Right then, from the corner of my eye, I saw big hairy feet under my wardrobe door, splitseconds before the lights went off. Here I have to admit, that it took some time for me to decide to switch the light back on. It turned out it was the bear slippers...

Sooo, done properly, bear slippers in a movie will work for me.
