2014 Summer Movie Costume Ideas

With the beginning of summer comes vacations, time by the pool, cook-outs and cold treats, but one of my favorite ways to get out of the summer heat is by sitting in an icy cold, air-conditioned movie theatre! Everyone knows that summertime is always filled with some great blockbusters and 2014 is no exception! It is also no secret that film characters from summer movies make for very popular Halloween costumes in the fall. Costume Holiday House always stocks up on costumes from current and popular movies. If you’re having trouble deciding which character to dress up as this fall, here are some of our suggestions:

The Amazing Spider-Man 2

Spider-Man’s outfit is one of the most iconic costumes out there. No way you’re making this one at home! We have a variety of Spider-Man costumes and accessories for both adults and kids. Make it a couples costume and go as Gwen Stacy with the iconic green jacket, purple skirt, black boots and, of course, blonde wig!

X-Men: Days of Future Past

Although the costumes in this movie are not very exciting, we do have a whole section of 70’s costumes to fit the time period. You might also be inspired to wear a classic X-Men costume. Check out our Wolverine costume and wig!

Maleficent

This movie put a unique twist on an iconic villain. We carry both Disney versions of Maleficent: the classic cartoon version and the new live-action version. We also have beautiful Renaissance rentals that could be used for any of the other characters, including the fairies, Aurora and Prince Philip.

A Million Ways to Die in the West

Any western attire will work for this movie’s costumes! We have all kinds of cowboy costumes and accessories for purchase or to rent.

Jersey Boys

Do you have 4 guys (or girls) who want to dress up as the Four Seasons? We have a variety matching jackets and suit coats available for rent!

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

Purchase or Rent a gorilla or ape costume for Halloween, this year. It’s always fun to keep people guessing who’s in the monkey suit!

Hercules

Hercules is bringing the ancient Greek look back. Whether you want a simple Greek costume or an elaborate Gladiator, we have complete costumes for purchase or for rent.

Let’s Be Cops

I have a feeling this movie is going to inspire a lot of people to say “let’s be cops” this halloween. We have everything you need to be a cop!

Pam is ALWAYS so knowledgeable and helpful. I can count on her no matter what.”

“Costume Holiday House is the best! I love having a year round Halloween store. I rented a mascot costume one year. This year your store had the hat I couldn’t find anywhere else. Thank you so much. Awesome staff very helpful and knowledgeable.”

Kiwi L., Columbus, Ohio

“They have such great costumes and extras for all your costume needs all year round.

They have a children’s section as well as extras for any existing costume you might have already, and need to renew our replace accessories. They also have a large selection of costumes for your organization, church or group and have all the up to date make up and wigs for every need you might have.

Overall I would say that most any item you might need quickly you would have available year round and not need to pay extra to have it delivered from an online source.
Staff have always been pleasant when or family visits as well as helpful.“

Michelle S., Fremont, Ohio

Roy M., Fremont, Ohio

“We rented Aladdin Jr, and it was so easy and everyone loved the costumes. We will definitely be renting again. Thanks so much!”

Liz H., Bunsold Middle School

This was the only store that I could find that had what I needed, and Pam went out of her way to help me out big time. Major kudos to this place and to Pam. I can tell that a lot of care is put into The Costume Holiday House, so I’d highly recommend it!

Ben Bridgwater, PA – Thank you for the great service!

“Our costumes were great! It’s so nice to rent costumes instead of taking the time to purchase everything you need for a show. It made everything so easy and hassle free.”
