A Collection of Awesome Masked Characters in Movies
I don’t know, is Halloween already starting to get into my brain? For no particular reason there was a reminder in my calendar today to buy a perfect replica outfit of a Kobra Kai student from Karate Kid. Little did I realize that it cost $140 and there’s just no way I’m spending that much on anything let alone a costume when I barely go out for Halloween anymore.
Anyway, given that reminder I thought about costume stuff and masks came to mind. Figured I’d come up with a cool gallery of characters in movies that wear masks.
The list is far from complete but this is a solid start…..
Darth Vader
Batman
V for Vendetta
Donnie Darko
Scream
Lone Ranger
Scorpion
Zorro
Michael Myers
Jason
Predator
Spawn
Leatherface
Man in the Iron Mask
Franklyn
Phantom of the Opera
Spiderman
*I’m sure there are a gazillion more but these are a good start. Suggestions welcome in the comments.

Don’t forget Rorschach from Watchmen 😉

V for Vendetta is the name of the movie, not the character. V
Donnie Darko is the name of the movie, not the character. Frank
There are more errors in the same manner but I only really care about those two.
Lol, what about a movie called The Mask with Jim Carrey.
Dread Pirate Roberts
I agree with Sams. Overlooking Rorschach was bad form … especially considering a slot was reserved for the Lone Ranger. Really?
The Man in Black from The Princess Bride
I like the list and I also agree that it’s just a start. To go along with the aforementioned Rorschach, Dread Pirate Roberts, and The Mask;
Cyclops (If you’re gonna give one to the Lone Ranger I think he counts)
The Shadow
The Phantom
The Phantasm (From Batman Mask of the Phantasm)
Boba Fett
Plus I think it’s funny cause Paul did like this same thing 2 years ago.

More of a hand painted mask, but I’ll say The Ultimate Warrior.
death race – frankensteins mask.
The Black Bandit from “The Fall”
Spiderman?
Doesn’t that mean, therefore, that every masked vigilante must be included?
And why, of all of them, Spiderman?
Everything else is spot on, though.
Zorro? Really? Were you on a deadline?
The Clive Barker film NIGHTBREED has that awesome villain with the weird stitched mask. In fact I think the nickname might have been stitchface.
If you going to put Lone Ranger and Spiderman, you have to at leat put ALMOST ALL FREAKIN SUPERHEROES THERE! They all wear a mask damn
