Here's what we've come up with so far. See attachments. If you find more or better, please let us all know. Thanks.

1) inexpensive mask that would need modified with a tube hose (about $20)
2) inexpensive miner's helmet with light (about $9)

Looks good Partiers! a little bit of paint for the helmet and your good to go! where did you find everything?

I grew up in a mining town and the ideas mentioned so far are great. The helmets above are perfect, they just need a quick coat of krylon fusion black paint to be ready.

The mask will be the tricky part. I would buy the mask that was mentioned above and cut out the center mouth portion for a hose. What you need is a small piece of sump pump hose. It is very flexible and looks just like the hose in the picture. The bag he is wearing could probably be found, but I would look at some thrift stores and try to find an old leather purse. Then you could cut it down and make a nice looking bag for the hose to go into. If it is leather you could paint it and run a sanding block over it and rough it up a little.

Does this help any? I'm going to keep searching online and see if anything comes up.

I've never seen it, what is this one about??

Wanted to delurk a moment to help out. Take a look at this:

WWII Canadian gas mask

I don't think you can get much closer than that! A little flat black paint on a few areas and you're good-to-go.

Do yourself a favor, buy or rent the original from 1981 (just released with cut gore added back in!!)


The 3D reamke is a steaming pile of garbage, they took everything cool about the original and dumbed it down for todays youth. Think Horror movie meets Gossip Girl, not to mention the horror of CGI blood, ugh.
