Being a zombie is about more than donning a creepy costume. Whether you want to be an extra on The Walking Dead, impress everyone at the Halloween party, or just scare the shit out of your best friend, you’re going to need some serious undead acting skills.

What’s that you say? You’ve seen every zombie movie and TV show in existence (even the awful ones)? You eat, sleep, and breathe zombies? You have a poster of Tom Savini on the wall of your bedroom?

Ah yes, but have you actually put any thought into the mannerisms of an effective zombie? If not, you don’t have a prayer at being a great walker, no matter how obsessed you are with all things zombie. Without solid zombie acting technique, even the best costume won’t prevent you from coming across as… lame.

5 Zombie Prosthetics to Raise Your Gore Factor

January 8, 2017

In case you haven’t noticed, a lot of people are dressing up like zombies these days. Between zombie walks, zombie pub crawls, zombie parties, and the biggest event of all, Halloween, the number of walker wannabes has never been higher. To stand out from the hordes of the undead, you need something special.

This is where it helps to raise the gore factor.

Made out of latex to mimic real skin, prosthetics allow you to create authentic-looking bullet holes, knife slashes, and other grisly wounds. Whether you just want a few minor scars for a taste of realism, or a giant gaping wound that will shock your friends, prosthetics add something that basic makeup simply cannot.

If you’re hellbent on doing every aspect of your zombie costume yourself, you can try making your own zombie prosthetics using online tutorials. But first, you might want to find out if there’s an affordable zombie prosthetic kit that meets your needs.

Whether you’re going for scary, weird, realistic, or funny, the key to a great zombie costume is makeup. Sure, other pieces of the costume such as clothing and props are also important. But the makeup does more to determine the quality of your costume than anything else.

It also tells a story about your zombie. Is she recently deceased, or has she been moldering in the grave for ages? Did he get infected by a single bite wound, or get mauled by a horde of walkers? The makeup you use, and how you apply it, provides the clues.

The idea of applying zombie makeup might seem intimidating at first, especially if you peek at some of the elaborate tutorials you can find online. Unless you’re experienced with makeup and/or zombie effects, it’s better to start with the bare minimum and then decide whether you want to try some of the more advanced techniques. If that sounds good to you, then read on.
