If you are looking for a Halloween costume idea, you could choose a Thor movie costume. The film has a number of exciting characters to choose from. It also has a wide range of truly awesome costumes that will be good for parties, school events and competitions.

The main character in the movie is Thor, the god of thunder. He is clad in a sweeping red cloak and wields a terrifying iron hammer. Thor is possibly a prototype for the modern superhero. Choose a weighty fabric to make the cloak but not too heavy to wear the actor down. Material cut from curtains make a good choice. The hammer can be made from polystyrene stuck to a card tube such as those in a roll of paper towel. Use a black or dark grey latex or spray paint for color.
