             DON'T FEED THEM AFTER MIDNIGHT!

  Last night I was to be a guest at one of the earliest Halloween parties ever! Being super strapped for cash I knew that purchasing ANYTHING to make a costume would be out of the question. I fancy myself quite the on the fly costume maker so I was up for the challenge. After a few minutes of tossing around ideas ( Hercules?, Hipster Aladdin?) my baby browns fell upon my beloved wall of action figures.
Billy Peltzer!!!! Wondrous hero of Gremlins. One of my favorite films of all time! With idea in place I set off on constructing my masterpiece. I of course took some liberties (I'm not gonna shave ever again and my red jacket is really more of a Marty McFly vest) but all in all I was happy with the results. My wife went as the ever lovely Kate (played by Phoebe Cates in the film) but her shyness won't allow for a blog photo. With Mogwai's in tote we headed off to the Party and onto Halloween costume glory! And so, In honor of my evening as an 80's hero, here are a few behind the scenes photos from the set of Gremlins.
