Get ready for a little orange carpet glam this Halloween. Grab your popcorn and a glue gun—it's time to create Halloween costumes that will have you accepting the award for best dressed.
We're talking Oscar 2025 films so don't expect Longlegs, Joker: Folie à Deux or Deadpool Wolverine here. These are this year's Oscar-caliber films that will have your audience screaming with appreciation
DUNE 2
Is that sand in your pants? A top contender for next year's Best Costume Design, as well as Best Picture and all the below-the-line awards, Dune 2 should dune very well as a Halloween theme for men, women and kids.
From Zendaya's Chani to Chalamet's Paul to Austin Butler or Sting's Feyd, there is plenty of inspiration so that you don't have to be a worm.
You can't go wrong with Zendaya. An early awards contender that will probably fade to just Golden Globes when the prestige winter films arrive, director Luca Guadagnino's Challengers should still serve up some competitive ideas or at least expand your tennis skirt collection.
Sight unseen, this potential Oscar contender should have friends should be green with envy when they see you as one of these timeless characters. Wickedly fun for adults and kids and duos alike.
GLADIATOR 2
Are we not entertained? Start working out now. Ridley Scott's Gladiator 2 is a potential Oscars Best Picture and across-the-board nominee in a year that may have three titles that include "two."

Men,if you think about the Roman Empire a lot, think about this costume come Halloween. Women and children can play too.
All the feels for the year's biggest film that could win Best Animated Feature and may show up for Best Picture. Fun for the whole family or gang from Joy to Anxiety or giving a nod to Ennui, as if he'd care.
WILD ROBOT
Challenging Pixar, The Wild Robot is a critical favorite, for sure Oscar nominee and a simple last-minute idea.
KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES
This blockbuster is a shoe-in for Best Makeup and Special Effects and these costumes are top banana.
SUBSTANCE
Some say Demi Moore's horror film The Substance will be part of award-season discussion. I wouldn't bet on that, but I'd bet that this is there is one outfit in the film that will be remembered most.
A COMPLETE UNKNOWN
It's unknown if James Mangold's (Walk the Line, Logan Cop Land) Bob Dylan movie will rise into Best Picture consideration, but Dune's Timothy Chalomet is a likely actor nominee either way. Bonus, the Mr. Tamborine Man look shouldn't cost you much more than a trip to the back of your closet.
FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA
Mad Max Fury Road won six Oscars at the 2015 ceremony, but Furiosa may fight for nominations — Best Special Effect and Costume are possibilities. You, however, can win the night with a fab furious look like the one Anya Taylor Joy sported.
SING SING
The film is currently in the Best Picture mix but may get overshadowed by January. However, Colman Domingo and Clarence Maclin should still be in discussion. Fellas, this is the most comfy costume on the list.
THELMA
With any luck, June Squib will be nominated for her role as Thelma. And what fun you'll have riding around on Halloween night if you choose her character from this 2024 gem.
Angeline Jolie as Maria Callas
Zoe Saldana or Go Gomez, Selena Gomez, in Emilia Perez.
Mid-WW2 female-led film Blitz.
Post-war European The Brutalist.
Ray Fiennes pope in Conclave.
Happy Halloween parties, everyone!
