Zombie Costume Guide: Five Funny Famous Zombies for Men

Everyone loves zombies. Zombie proms are growing in popularity. Zombies are also easy and effective Halloween costumes because you can purchase some used clothes from a second-hand store (or sacrifice clothes of your own), tear them up and add some fake blood for excellent effect.

If you're the type of person who likes to make others laugh, consider dressing up as a famous zombie for Halloween this year.

Bill Clinton

Beloved by many, beleaguered by scandal, Bill Clinton is recognizable by his puffy white hair, moon-shaped face and Arkansas accent. Bill has been seen sporting a suit with an American flag lapel pin, but he also likes to jog to McDonald's in a jogging suit (this is an awesome excuse to explain why zombies might crave Big Macs).

If people don't understand your famous zombie persona, simply remind them that you "did not have sexual relations with that woman!"

Michael Jordan

Unless you're going as a "28 Days Later" zombie, you'll quickly learn that people underestimate the zombie prowess. Some don't fear zombies because the "Night of the Living Dead" types are slow. Inspire fear by dressing as a Michael Jordan zombie.

Make sure you wear some Air Jordans, basketball shorts and Jordan's jersey. Since Michael Jordan would never be limited by zombie slowness, this gives you an excuse to run around like a madman with a basketball.

To make sure people get the hint, you could even carry around some Hanes underwear (Jordan sponsors them). Don't forget the bald head.

Andy Reid

If you've put on the pounds or would like to pretend you have, consider something frightening for Halloween: zombie Andy Reid, the Eagles' coach. Don't forget your Eagles gear and moustache.

To avoid confusion with a "Biggest Loser" zombie, make sure you carry a clipboard and read frequently.

Ghostbuster

All of the Ghostbusters are magnificent. It would be pretty hilarious to portray a Ghostbuster zombie. With the speed of a sloth, you could chase people dressed as ghosts and demons around, unsuccessfully trying to zap them.

This is also a great famous zombie costume if you're looking for a group costume. Ghostbusters roam in packs-and since they have weapons, they could always cross the stream and bring danger to those around them!

Anderson Cooper

Want some grey and white hair? Consider being an intelligent zombie. Anderson Cooper would be a very successful zombie and good for the environment. It's pretty obvious that 'silver fox' zombie Anderson Cooper would go after BP the moment he shed his objective journalistic ways during a zombie apocalypse. Go green: be zombie AC for Halloween!

You'll need some piercing blue eyes and that trademark hair. An "AC 360" fake press badge might help, too. Anderson is particularly popular with the gay crowd, so if you're looking for some male attention, this is the best zombie choice for you.

No matter which famous zombie you decide to portray for Halloween or that upcoming zombie prom, don't forget an appropriate amount of fake blood, prosthetic wounds and that dead-looking complexion.
