We are a way of life that put a man on the moon and produced runless panty hose. Surely we can also produce medicament cabinets that are both stylish and secure. Many homes still like a medicine cabinet above the conceitedness. There are many styles to choose from. They come in large and small sizes, some framed and some frameless. Many panacea cabinets are large enough to span the entire vanity area adding both transpire and visual space in the bathroom. Medicine chests hold a wide mix of items in most homes including cosmetics, lotions, creams, shaving mat, hair dryers and curling irons, first aid supplies and medicines that are toxic if taken in the unfitting amounts or by the wrong person. We have medicine cabinets with mirrors on mirrors. Some cure-all cabinets have outlets right in the medicine cabinet for plugging in grooming aids.

There are also medication cabinets with defogging devices so that the mirror is useable right after a shower without having to wipe the picture or wait until it clears. But where is the security? A good segment of the population have young children who could either become ill or worse yet die if they should take some medications.

It’s also that sometimes when Halloween stores move into every vacated department store on the block with their latest array of prompt Oscar costumes based on your favorite movies from the last 10 months.  There are the holdovers from years times gone by, of course.  Captain Jack Sparrow here, Superman there.  And let’s not lose the ever-popular rubber Presidential likenesses.  So what can we expect?

There will be plenty of “Sombre Knight”-themed wear, each item more embarrassingly realized than the next.  Iron Man will be in demand with a lot of the tiny youngsters, as older kids might feel strange in a plastic faux-metallic automaton get-up.  They’ll stick with Napoleon Dynamite or another year of Borat before they cause themselves to that.

Whatever the costume, one thing is always pretty much guaranteed: the costumes are gonna suck.  These things are scads-produced and don’t fly off the conveyor belt fast enough.  Creativity is lacking, it’s all a sharp mess.  The only answer is good ole’ fashioned ingenuity…and we’re here to stop.

Below you’ll find our list of the top 10 movie-related costumes of 2008, with an eye toward some kind of originality throughout (though the unavoidability of obvious picks creeps in here and there).  Herewith is our lodestar to a memorable Halloween season:
