Crikey, DM! It’s far too late to order any geeky masks for Halloween this year but I’ve saved the best for last. What horror villain could it be? What computer game hero will take the prestigious number 12 slot? We have a surprise winner, a blast from the past, an icon of geek culture; Danger […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #11 Rorschach
We’re not worthy. We are dirty scum, sinners and pathetic worms who pollute the cities. If that’s not you then perhaps you’re one of the good guys; perhaps you’re Rorschach. The iconic “anti-hero” of the Watchman was hugely popular in geek culture long before the movie. This Halloween even the jocks will get the reference […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #10 Darth Vader
If you’ve not yet used a Vader mask for Halloween or for a prank then this upcoming Halloween gives you the chance to catch up. Cliche? No! Classic? Yes! There’s no doubt in my mind… Darth Vader makes it into the 12 Masks of Halloween! Can’t wait until the next mask appearing? Try a […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #9 Marcus from Gears of War
The computer game masks are doing well this year. The 9th entry in the 12 Masks of Halloween is Marcus from Gears of War. The beauty of the gamer mask is that it’s an injoke. Does Marcus look spooky enough to work as a generic Halloween mask? Maybe not! People might wonder what you’re up […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #8 World of Warcraft Troll
This must be one of my favourite masks in the entire 12 Masks of Halloween collection. The World of Warcraft troll works because it’s a good, general, halloween mask for everyone. WoW players, of course, get the inside joke and should recognise the creature. Here’s the prediction: This year World of Warcraft Halloween costumes will […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #7 Master Chief
He may not be in this year’s Halo hit – ODST – but he’s very much still the blood and soul of the amazing series. Mainly the blood part, perhaps. This Halloween, with ODST still being played over the interwebs by XBL buddies, a Master Chief half-mask seems like a sure in. That’s why it’s […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #6 Kratos
Show off your geek cred by picking a Halloween mask that enjoys an origin from outside the horror movie space. Kratos is at the centre of the God of War series; an icon of vengence and a thumping fighter. The 12 Masks of Halloween is an annual tradition here at Geek Native. There’s a new […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #5 Jigsaw
Saw is one of the most successful horror franchises since 2000. The series has managed to appeal to both mainstream audiences as well as the horror movie community. Jigsaw will be a classic Halloween mask for years to come. What did you make of this mask selection? Let us know in the comments below!
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #4 The Predator
I think Predator was the best film Arnie was in – better than all the Terminators. I’m not so sure about the AvP franchise although AVPR: Aliens vs Predator – Requiem wasn’t all that bad. What I am sure about is the Predator is an iconic Halloween monster. That’s why it makes the cut as […]
The 12 Masks of Halloween: #3 Donnie Darko
Fed up of being a rabbit in a human suit? A Donnie Darko custom is one step closer to being a human in a rabbit suit for this Halloween. Speaking of Donnie Darko; whatever happened to the sequel? Has it been and gone already? Wasn’t it going to centre on the sister? Every year, Geek […]
