In earlier posts we&#8217;ve looked at the fashion and style of <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2008/10/the-fashion-of-haddonfield/">Haddonfield</a>, <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2009/07/the-fashion-of-horror-villains/">horror villains in general</a> and <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2008/06/the-fashion-of-camp-crystal-lake-part-1/">Camp Crystal Lake</a> (<a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2008/07/the-fashion-of-camp-crystal-lake-part-2/">twice</a>).  This week we&#8217;re headin&#8217; to Texas, alleged home of the NASA Space Center, Cordell Walker (aka Walker, Texas Ranger), the breed of cattle known as &#8216;longhorns&#8217; and far too many families of ravenous, psychotic cannibals to name.  We&#8217;re accompanied this go &#8217;round by Brittney-Jade Colangelo, professional baton twirler, <a href="http://twitter.com/Brittnahjade">horror twitter-er</a>, world-renowned hostess of <a href="http://www.dayofwoman.com">dayofwoman.com</a>, and recently crowned <a href="http://thevaultofhorror.blogspot.com/2009/12/ms-horror-blogosphere-2009-and-winner.html">Ms. Horror Blogosphere 2009</a>.  So join Brittney-Jade, Jon and myself in breaking the cardinal rule by &#8220;messing with Texas&#8221; as we delve into the fashion sense and interior decorating choices present in 1974&#8242;s foliage-unfriendly classic &#8212; <em>The Texas Chainsaw Massacre</em>.

You&#8217;ve never known embarrassment until you&#8217;ve gotten your tie caught in your chainsaw blade and had to explain to the young girl you were chasing why it&#8217;ll be a few minutes before you can slice her up while you sort this mess out.  
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> It looks good, but it&#8217;s impractical. Look at all that blood. That&#8217;s what aprons are for. Now he&#8217;s going to have to waste precious time washing those stains out of his favorite tie.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Brittney-Jade:</strong> Its okay guys, he’ll just kill Bill Cosby’s wardrobe designer and turn another one of his sweaters into a tie. We all know inbred cannibals are good with needle and thread.

</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> Leatherface actually wears three different masks in the film, each intended for a different activity.  in addition to the &#8220;lounging around the house and freaking people the fuck out&#8221; mask and the &#8220;sitting down for dinner with the family and freaking people the fuck out mask,&#8221; here we have the &#8220;cooking/cleaning and freaking the people the fuck out&#8221; mask.

<strong>Brittney-Jade:</strong> I believe this is the “late night show and freaking people the fuck out” mask. I’m surprised Jay Leno hasn’t sued them for copyright infringement for stealing his chin and wearing it as their own.

halloween is, by far, my favorite of the holidays, which (given that i run a horror website) is probably no big shock to you.  what you may not know is that, in addition to my love of all things horror, i&#8217;m also a dog person.  i try not to combine my love of all hallow&#8217;s eve with my dog-friendliness because i respect the dignity of my pets and <strike>never</strike> <a href="/uploads/corey/f13uncut/3323173141_7374ca118c.jpg" rel="lightbox[1674]" target="_blank">almost</a> <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/uploads/corey/f13uncut/3323170849_59e817a4af.jpg" rel="lightbox[1674]" target="_blank">never</a> force them into ridiculous halloween masks or costumes.  not everyone shares this view when it comes to their dogs, however.  people dress their dogs up in all kinds of spectacularly dumb and occasionally awesome halloween attire&#8230; and sometimes they take pictures.  below you&#8217;ll find a slideshow of the best, worst, silliest, cutest, awesomest, stupidest and/or most disturbing dog halloween costumes i could find.  sorry cat people &#8212; only dogs are allowed here at eo2l.  if you want cats, go bug famed horror critic <a href="http://twitter.com/scotteweinberg">scott weinberg</a>, and see if you can talk him into dressing up <a href="http://twitpic.com/l39dd">jones</a>.

[from corey: join me in welcoming, cara, our newest writer to the regular staff!  you may already be familiar with cara's pithy commentary from <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2008/10/the-fashion-of-haddonfield/">our</a> <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2008/07/the-fashion-of-camp-crystal-lake-part-2/">fashion</a> <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2008/06/the-fashion-of-camp-crystal-lake-part-1/">articles</a> and <a href="http://www.evilontwolegs.com/2009/05/vampire-showdown-twilight-vs-let-the-right-one-in/">our comparison of twilight to let the right one in</a> where she wrote using the pseudonym "A GIRL."]
</em>
</p>
<br /><br />

<p>
Are <em>you</em> are an aspiring horror villain, preparing diligently for a career in scaring and slashing and stabbing?  Have you thought about your motivations?  Should you be mysterious or bold?  Openly terrifying or cunningly disguised?  If you have settled on a persona, do you know how to convey it to the world?  In short &#8212; what are you going to wear to achieve the right first impression with your victims?  After all, you’re not going to get a second chance.
</p>
<p>
To help you get started on your malevolent makeover, let’s examine some popular villains skilled in presenting their message through their appearance.
</p>
<br /><br />

<div style="margin: 50px auto; width: 738px;">
<div class="img-shadow">
<a href="/uploads/fashionvillain/valentine1.jpg" rel="lightbox[148]" target="_blank" rel="lightbox[148]" title="The Fashion of Horror Villains"><img src="/uploads/fashionvillain/valentine1.serendipityThumb.jpg" /></a>
</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 278px;  padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 13px;">
<strong>Harry Warden (<em>My Bloody Valentine</em>)</strong>
<br /><br />
<p>
Creating the right ensemble must have been a challenge for Harry.  He must always be menacing, occasionally terrifying, all while keeping his identity secret.  Harry probably thinks he has the perfect disguise, because he&#8217;s a miner and thus has good reason to wear an outfit exactly like the outfit worn by every single person around him.  If he had thought this plan through though, he would realize that the coveralls and mask are perfect for escapades in or relatively near the mine, but in town it’s going to be a little suspicious if he doesn’t uncover his face.  The ax is also a giveaway, as they are no longer a common urban accessory.  At least in Pennsylvania. 
</p>
<p>
<em>Tip</em>: Make sure your wardrobe is suitable for each location you plan on scourging.
</p>

</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 278px;  padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 13px;">
<strong>The Creeper (<em>Jeepers Creepers</em>)</strong>
<br /><br />
<p>
The Creeper is more monster than man, and therefore does not need a tailored look to get his point across.  His face alone conveys the message “I am a scary mean monster and I am going to kill you.”  Since his intentions are not complex, he needs little further visual embellishments.  He has the freedom to choose clothing according only to utility, like his long pants which offer excellent leg protection when running through the corn and underbrush.  On the other hand, I think he will find that his selection of a long coat is a mistake – it’s only a matter of time before that thing gets caught in a hay baler.
</p>
<p>
<em>Tip</em>: Remember that each item, no matter how irrelevant to your overall image, must be practical for your environment.

</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 278px;  padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 13px;">
<strong>Freddy Krueger (<em>A Nightmare on Elm Street</em>)</strong>
<br /><br />
<p>
There is a lot of room for Freddy to go wrong.  He originates in the dream world and therefore can take on any appearance imaginable.  If he were not disciplined, he could easily dilute his image by taking on too many forms.  A fiend you don’t recognize doesn’t inspire much fear.  But it&#8217;s possible Freddy goes a little too far in the other direction.  Accessorizing with the claw is a good choice, since it is not only a practical and effective weapon, but also unique in appearance.  This alone would have been enough to create an iconic look for Freddy.  An incessant stripe-iness and a rather worse-for-wear fedora create a campy air, but then again maybe that’s just what he was going for.
</p>
<p>
<em>Tip</em>: It’s easy for your look to slip from spooky to silly.  When in doubt, leave something out.

</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 278px;  padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 13px;">
<strong>Pinhead (<em>Hellraiser</em>)</strong>
<br /><br />
<p>
Dear, earnest Pinhead is my favorite of all evil beings because he perfectly conveys his wonderfully quirky evil personality in the unique image he presents.  He’s come to torture, yes, but only because someone invited him over, and he takes a keen interest in the reactions to his efforts.  His intellectual approach is represented by his long leather ensemble, a black version of the traditionally white mad scientist’s garb.  The metal studs sprouting from his cute little bald head serve to distinguish him from lesser Cenobites, and their precise grid-like arrangement further emphasizes the structured and cerebral nature of his bloody pursuits.
</p>
<p>
<em>Tip</em>: Don’t be afraid to tweak an existing iconic look for your own purposes.
</p>

</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 278px;  padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 13px;">
<strong>Samara (<em>The Ring</em>)</strong>
<br /><br />
<p>
It’s increasingly difficult to come up with new and exciting ways to express the concept “evil drowned child”, especially when you have only the limited resources of an evil drowned child.  Samara’s waterlogged dress and soggy hair just don’t give her a lot to work with.  A less creative drenched girl might be content merely to vary the placement of her dirt stains.  Instead, Samara creates a profoundly terrifying appearance just by the way she works the room.  Her jerky movements and odd body contortions lend menacing movement to her heavy skirts, and she can vary the yurk factor by how much hair she flips into her face.  You go, soggy girl!
</p>
<p>
<em>Tip</em>: Focus on what you can do with what you’ve got.
</p>

</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 278px;  padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 13px;">
<strong>Santanico Pandemonium (<em>From Dusk Till Dawn</em>)</strong>
<br /><br />
<p>
I dislike Ms. Pandemonium nearly as much as I adore Pinhead.  She is appallingly uncomplex, and initially appears to make only a halfhearted attempt to present herself as evil by wearing red.  However, I must admit that her costume is amusingly suitable for her character.  Her representation of the stripper who disappointingly does not strip is a clever allusion to the misfortune of meeting a beautiful woman who is actually a ravenous bloodsucker who will bite your head off.  Using an actual boa constrictor as a boa is much too punny for me, but I can see how it would go over well with some bar crowds. 
</p>
<p>
<em>Tip</em>: You don’t have to create the most impressive image, just one that works for you.
</p>
</div>
<div class="img-shadow">

Happy Halloween!  In celebration of today&#8217;s costume-filled holiday, we continue our look into the fashion sense of horror film characters with an examination of the residents of Haddonfield, IL from John Carpenter&#8217;s 1978 classic, <em>Halloween</em>.  As with our previous posts, we&#8217;ve invited A GIRL to assist us in our sartorial analysis.

<strong>Jon:</strong> Back in the 80s, my little cousin had a &#8220;My Buddy&#8221; doll that looked just like this guy – right down to its striped shirt, creepy smile, and bug-eyed expression. 
</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> While many have assumed Judith and this young man just had sex during this scene, I have an alternate interpretation of their interaction.  Taking into consideration Judith&#8217;s toplessness when Michael finds her and the speed with which this man exits while pulling on his shirt, I&#8217;m pretty sure this guy is simply a clothing burglar who just stole her shirt.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Homemade costumes can be creative and whimsical, or they can be ambiguous and drab.  The reader may decide which category Crocheted Potholder belongs.

<strong>Jon:</strong> I know he&#8217;s going to grow up to be the Shape, but that fluffy, intricate lace around his neck doesn&#8217;t say &#8220;I&#8217;m evil on two legs&#8221; as much as it says &#8220;I&#8217;m Little Lord Fauntleroy.&#8221;
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Long before Steven King introduced us to Pennywise, little Mikey Myers knew instinctively that clowns are scary and evil.  He has wisely chosen to add the correct wickedly sharp accessory to his costume to accentuate this fact.  (Note that a cleaver can be substituted if all the knives are dirty and/or imbedded in someone’s chest cavity.)

<strong>Corey:</strong> And here comes Loomis around the corner&#8230; he&#8217;s pulling ahead of the hospital administrator&#8230;  Oh, he&#8217;s cut him off and slammed him into the guard rail!  The administrator is careening out of control and has burst into flames!
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Fashion missteps can negatively impact interactions among even the most serious-minded professionals.  Here, a very properly attired hospital administrator feels the need to distance himself from Dr. Loomis, who is attempting, yet so sadly failing, to get down with the brown (polyester).

<strong>Corey:</strong>  I&#8217;ve always been told to dress for the job you want, not the job you have.  Apparently Laurie has aspirations of being a 60 year old librarian, Lynda envisions a future as a leprechaun and Annie wants to be a man.

<strong>A GIRL:</strong> What young girl doesn’t have fond memories of her first pair of stripper shoes?  Of course, back in the 70s it was hard to come by the preferred style of flashing lights embedded in polymers, so Lynda gamely makes do with some raffia and a heartfelt butt waggle.

<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> And so began the short-lived 1970s trend of squash, pumpkins and gourds as fashion accessories.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Here Laurie makes the common mistake of choosing an accessory which is disproportionate to the rest of her outfit.  A small squash or melon would be much more appropriate than this distractingly sized pumpkin, which would be better paired with a full skirt.  Good try with the bold color choice, though.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> The pumpkin, pocketbook, and cardigan she holds in her arms are all domestic items that symbolize Laurie&#8217;s role as caretaker. She&#8217;s having trouble carrying all that stuff because she&#8217;s finding her role to be increasingly difficult. Earlier versions of this sequence weren&#8217;t as subtle, as she was also holding a pot roast, a rolling pin, a telephone, and a Chihuahua.

</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> This scene had women across the country foregoing pants for yellow knee-high socks and afghans.   
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> The proper use of tube socks can add a lot of versatility to an otherwise limited ensemble.  Normally one would feel vulnerable roaming the streets in just an oversized shirt, but just add long bright yellow socks, and presto! The wearer is warm and snug and no longer overexposed.

</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Dr. Loomis dons a rumpled overcoat to create a somewhat unconvincing Columbo costume.  The overall effect would be improved by adding a disheveled toupee and adopting a pose of befuddled inquiry.

<strong>A GIRL:</strong> This is what happens when someone not very clever tries to come up with a clever costume. The Ghost of Woody Allen was a difficult concept to actualize, and sadly everyone thinks this is Ghost of Buddy Holly.  This is understandable and should have been foreseen, since although Woody’s career may be dead, the man himself is apparently not.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> NOTHING is scarier than a ghost with giant googly eyes.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> While crude, this may be the first outfit we&#8217;ve looked at that was <em>created</em> by the character themself.  The implication of this outfit is that after killing Bob downstairs, Michael found some scissors, went to the linen closet and found a sheet and then cut out tiny eye holes.  I&#8217;ve never understood why Michael would go to all this trouble, but maybe they had some Home-Ec classes at Smith&#8217;s Grove Sanitarium and he was feeling domestic.

<strong>Corey:</strong>  With several pockets capable of holding all your knives, rope, breath mints and asthma medication, Michael&#8217;s Parisian jumpsuit is both trendy and functional.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Michael demonstrates the versatility of the workman’s coverall.  Everyone knows they allow excellent range of motion during killing rampages, but here we see that they are also very comfortable when donned for a little dirt nap.

Featuring one of the best dressed final girls of the series as well as Jason in the iconic &#8220;bag-head&#8221; costume, this should be a lot of fun.

<strong>Corey:</strong>  Here we have Alice, the previous film&#8217;s final girl, relaxing at home.  Add a puffy, stitched Santa Claus head with blinking eyes or a bunch of candy canes to that jumper and you have the perfect Christmas outfit.  <a href="/uploads/corey/fashion13th/lauriemudgrip.jpg" rel="lightbox[76]" target="_blank">For an infant</a>.  Or, if you left it as-is, maybe <a href="/uploads/corey/fashion13th/plaid_jumper.jpg" rel="lightbox[76]" target="_blank">a terrier</a>.  
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> Her outfit does have a nauseatingly Christmas-green color, but I think she&#8217;s really going for the rustic pickle look, which she&#8217;s hoping will drive all the local farm boys at Camp Crystal Lake wild. Also, I think she secretly enjoys smelling her own armpit.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Alice has thrown herself to her bed in tears because she can&#8217;t get her Christmas Cthulhu costume quite right.  The not-found-in-nature shades of green are spot on, but she hasn&#8217;t quite found the optimal balance between festivity and dread.

<strong>Corey:</strong> I think he&#8217;s singing an unrequited love song to his hat that ends with a verse expressing a secret wish for some sleeves.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> This hat cries out to be paired with a tweedy, leather-elbowed jacket.  This hat dreams of a day it will be jauntily worn to the fox hunt or the afternoon garden party.  This hat is destined for sad, grey, sleeveless disappointment, accompanied by a lonesome harmonica tune.

<strong>Corey:</strong>  The <em>Friday the 13th</em> films always feature some familiar stereotypes (e.g., the unpopular clown, the slut, the virgin, etc.).  But really?  Paul is the best out-in-the-woods-rugged-but-handsome-Marlboro-man character the film could muster?  I don&#8217;t care how many buttons he leaves undone or how many flannel shirts he owns, no outfit is going to stop him from tripping my gaydar.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> I agree. The ONLY thing preventing Paul from becoming Fred from Scooby Doo is an ascot.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> This is a good example of how the right clothing and accessories can really let a man express his personality and mood.  The first outfit, with turtleneck and rolled up sleeves, says, &#8216;Let&#8217;s share a bottle of wine and then I will molest you,&#8217; while a sportier look with a convertible accessory says, &#8216;Let&#8217;s go for a drive and then I will molest you.&#8217;

<strong>Corey:</strong> Ted is the aforementioned &#8220;clown&#8221; character in the film, but with a twist.  For some reason he&#8217;s actually fairly popular amongst the rest of the counselors.  This doesn&#8217;t excuse him from the fashion rules of the clown/prankster stereotype though, which disallow the wearing of anything that doesn&#8217;t cause a loss of dignity (e.g. those white socks pulled almost to knees and the fact that he&#8217;s wearing deer skins after Labor Day).
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> This is like the before and after pictures of a nice suburban barbecue gone horribly awry after too many bottles of Zima.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Here Ted is depicted on two of his many failed auditions to become the seventh member of the Village People.  Badly Dressed Chef was truly a poor concept, but I hear that Cave Boy was almost accepted, until at the last moment sailors were chosen instead.

Forsaking the &#8220;naked covered in seaweed and twigs&#8221; look, he&#8217;s chosen a beautiful pair of OshKosh B&#8217;Gosh overalls and a cotton pillowcase, which is a classic look that never goes out of style.

<strong>Jon:</strong> I&#8217;ve never noticed that he actually has TWO eyeholes. I always thought there was just the one. The other eyehole is just very, very tiny and easily escapes notice. Or maybe he cut out a full-sized eyehole, and then later sewed it shut, which raises all kinds of questions about  how domesticated that makes Jason. Either way, if you stare at this picture long enough, it starts to look like Jason is winking at us, which is actually kinda scary. But I can&#8217;t get over how small and soft his hands look. I mean, I&#8217;m not the most rugged guy in the world, but surely they could have found some dude with at least a little bit of dirt in his nails and a callous or two to play the part of a swampy, knife-wielding mutant.

<strong>Corey:</strong> For someone who was in a bikini in an earlier scene, Ginny is certainly wearing a lot of layers later in the evening.  That said, this is excellent &#8220;running for your f&#8217;ing life&#8221; attire which you should always strive for when camping, just in case.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> I agree. Her outfit looks like it&#8217;s been stuffed with straw. And she looks much bigger than Jason here. She could have easily body slammed that little pipsqueak.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> This outfit makes a lot of sense once you realize Jason&#8217;s true motivation.  Ginny has piled on layer after layer of shirts, in the hopes that no matter how many of her garments Jason attacks, she will still be fully shirted.

</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> Some hand-me-downs should just be politely accepted then discreetly thrown away.  To Jon&#8217;s point, I shudder to think what he&#8217;s been doing with it the last few years.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> It is so important to store your treasured garments properly.  A well made sweater can indeed last for generations.  Unfortunately for the Voorhees collection, although peat moss does have amazing preservative properties, here we see why it is not recommended for use with antique knits.

<a href="http://www.somethingawful.com">Somethingawful.com</a> used to run a fashion feature looking at clothes from old catalogs, websites and similar sources.  Thinking back on that while re-watching the <em>Friday the 13th</em> series recently, it occurred to us that fashion is an integral, if often overlooked, aspect of the series and it deserves far more attention than it receives.  To remedy this glaring oversight, we are proud to present  the first part of a continuing series, &#8220;The Fashion of Camp Crystal Lake.&#8221;  Additionally, in an Eo2L first, since we&#8217;re looking at fashion we&#8217;ve invited a guest writer &mdash; A GIRL.  As a female, A GIRL is imminently qualified to comment on fashion, being innately given all fashion knowledge at birth, just like <em>Project Runway</em> mentor, Tim Gunn.

<strong>Corey:</strong> In this rustic Hazzard County-esque setting, Marcie sports a lovely maternity smock while Ned gives Jimmy Buffet&#8217;s shirt collection a run for its money.  
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> While a bewildered Kevin Bacon gives up looking for his shirt buttons.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Marcie has the right idea with a casual look for a rural outing, but the execution is poor.  Her top hits at the widest part of her hips, while her jeans taper from the thigh, giving her the look not of a lithe, willowy, soon-to-be viciously murdered teen, but more that of a poorly rendered statue of a lesser fertility goddess.

<strong>Corey:</strong> In the picture above and the one on the far left, his arms are closely held at his sides making him kinda look like a jack-in-the-box that just popped out of that tree trunk.  I have to admit though, he looks very <em>GQ</em> in that last photo, what with the gold chain, Tom Cruise crazy-smile and hip swagger goin&#8217; on.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Jon:</strong> You&#8217;ve got to give him credit for striking such a perfect Marlboro Man pose, but at the rate he&#8217;s losing those buttons, his shirt&#8217;s going to be at his ankles by the time we get to his death scene.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> I believe Kevin is using a deep v-neck to elongate his torso, and a gold chain to bring attention toward his face.  <em>GQ</em> indeed.

<strong>Corey:</strong> This image of Trudy the waitress brings back many fond memories of late-nights at the Waffle House and uncontrollable feelings of the need to regurgitate.   It&#8217;s also worth pointing out that Trudy&#8217;s glasses, if hit in just the right way on a sunny day by a stray beam of sunlight, can literally burn out customers retinas, leaving nothing behind but smoking eye sockets and unnatural screams of anguish and pain.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> I believe Trudy is a fasion DO for being unafraid of bold color combinations.  Too often we see women of size hiding behind drab and shapeless clothing, so it&#8217;s refreshing to see her sporting this robin&#8217;s egg blue and yellow combo.

<strong>Jon:</strong> Most people don&#8217;t realize that Camp Crystal lake is actually situated on a sacred Indian burial ground. This is Chief Chicken Leg, proud member of the Tighty-whitey Tribe and sworn defender of his ancestral lands.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> Slasher films always feature the attention-whoring prankster/geek character, and I believe this trend started with the introduction of Ned, pictured here.  Part 2 may have Ted, Part 3 may have Shelly, but there will always be a special place in my heart for the racially insensitive clothing, near-fatal archery pranks and horrible impersonations of Ned, the archetypal über-annoying slasher fodder character.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> In fashion, two wrongs make me nauseated.  The feathered headdress does not draw my eye away from the unnecessary display of underpants.  Instead, I look back and forth from head to, er, area, more and more rapidly in a futile attempt to escape from the dastardly duo of faux pas, until collapsing in a sick dizzy heap.

<strong>Jon:</strong> This is so ridiculous. I mean just LOOK at that. He&#8217;s painting that railing without even applying one coat of primer. Geesh.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> I&#8217;m not sure I can articulate exactly why, but whenever I look at this outfit and the expression on this guy&#8217;s face&#8230;  all I can imagine is him singing the theme to &#8220;Boosom Buddies.&#8221;  
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> When i see him, all I can imagine is the video for &#8220;Freeze Frame.&#8221;

<strong>Jon:</strong> Ok, now this film is really creeping me out, because I never noticed it before, but my grandmother has a big pink bath robe that looks just like that one.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> Yet <em>another</em> insulting example of sexist film-makers dressing their female leads in revealing, unrealistic attire in order to attract their target demographic &#8212; the teenage male.  
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> Industry insiders refer to this as the &#8216;I give up&#8217; nightdress, worn by girls who can no longer be bothered to find something chaste yet alluring to wear in the woods. I think it comes from the same collection as Marcie&#8217;s top.

<strong>Jon:</strong> Why are the men in this film more feminine than the women? Pamela Voorhees is dressed like a sea captain, and the final girl is dressed like a gender-neutral cowboy.
</p>
<p>
<strong>A GIRL:</strong> I agree with Jon.  Alice&#8217;s wardrobe seems to have been designed with her younger brother in mind.  But, if anyone is a fan, I&#8217;m pretty sure you can still get those pants at L.L. Bean (I can get you a two-for-one coupon).
</p>
<p>
<strong>Corey:</strong> Alice is not just one of the worst final girls, she&#8217;s also one of the worst dressed.  It&#8217;s hard to believe they went from such a horrible final girl to Ginny in just one film, but that they did.  Stay tuned because we look at the greatest final girl of all time (Ginny) and her well-dressed compatriates from <em>Friday the 13th Part 2</em> in the next installment.
