Not trying to hit up the ransacked Spirit Halloween store on the corner? No worries, Team SG has you covered with three last-minute guys’ Halloween costumes to wear to all your spooky celebrations.
So, put that crumpled Austin Powers mask back on the shelf and shop these suggestions instead.
Costumes of movie and television characters always make good costumes. You’ll get lots of high fives and compliments from other partygoers who get the reference, and you’ll make the acquaintance of those who want to know who, exactly, you’re supposed to be.
Below, 3 easy guys Halloween costumes you can dig out of your closet for a fun, stress-free Halloween:
Ben Braddock from The Graduate
SG Says: Want to snag your very own Mrs. Robinson? Go with a get-up inspired by Dustin Hoffman’s character in the 60s classic “The Graduate.” All you need is a tan windbreaker, polo shirt, white sneaks, and a hangdog expression.

Patrick Bateman from American Psycho
SG Says: I personally cannot watch the film American Psycho all the way through, but don’t let that stop you from going with a scary costume inspired by Christian Bale’s murderous leading man on All Hallow’s Eve. Slick your hair back, throw on on your best power suit and a rain coat – (rubber) axe optional.

Marty McFly from Back II The Future
SG Says: True story: Chicks dig Michael J. Fox. It was true in the 80s. It’s true now. And the benefits are two-fold: 1) The clothes still look current so you look cool and 2) you stay warm!
That puffer vest and flannel shirt will keep you toasty all night. No tricks, just treats.

Bonus points if your wingman is willing to go as Doc!
