With today marking the release of the highly anticipated Michael Jackson movie “This Is It,” we here at Hollywood Crush wanted to find a way to help you honor the music legend. Halloween is just three days away, so we thought we would extend our Dress Like A Movie Star Week to pay tribute to (respectfully, of course) the always-groundbreaking MJ. While you could always do a group costume inspired by the spooky fun undead from the classic “Thriller” video, we also wanted to help you capture some of Jackson’s other iconic looks.
There’s no one at a party who won’t instantly recognize (and scream for) you dressed to the nines as MJ from the 1995 MTV Video Music Awards (see a photo after the jump). The great thing about these costumes? They’re unisex, so ladies and gents, it’s time to step up and give the King of Pop some props this Halloween.

We've already brought you action ("Zombieland" sisters), comedy ("Hangover" beards), sci-fi ("Star Trek" lovahs), and vampire ("New Moon" Volturi member Jane) Halloween costume ideas, so to wrap up Dress Like a Movie Star week, Hollywood Crush decided to get a little more glamorous. Early this year, Isla Fisher charmed audiences as Rebecca Bloomwood in "Confessions of a Shopaholic." Maybe it was her knack for physical comedy, her ability to be ditzy yet impossibly adorable at the same time or her fantastic style — whatever it was, Isla managed to get us to like the financially irresponsible Rebecca.
The debt-laden fashionista gave financial guidance to the readers of her magazine column, but didn't heed her own advice in real life. Thankfully, you don't have to go deep into debt to recreate Isla's fashion-forward wardrobe. There are plenty of gorgeous looks from the movie to copy, but we think this colorful canary yellow look (pictured above) one the best.

Unless you lived under a rock this summer, you'd know that the surprise hit "The Hangover" is the fourth highest grossing film of the year. No small thanks go to Zach Galifianakis' tubby Alan (pictured below in the middle of Ed Helms and Bradley Cooper), the brother of the bride who's more than a little out there.
Zach Galifianakis has already proved he's a babe in his own right (not really, but this Crusher might be massively crushing on the comedian), and his outfits — or lack thereof — are some of the easiest to recreate for your Halloween costume, mostly because they came from mall stores. Thank you, "Hangover" costume department!

We were green with envy when Rachel Nichols got to have a quick romp with the out-of-this-world hottie Chris Pine in this summer’s mega-hit "Star Trek." So, while Spock (Zachary Quinto) and Nyota (Zoe Saldana) may have been the intergalactic couple to make it work despite some interplanetary meanies trying to come between them, we think bad boy Capt. James Kirk (Chris) and Star Fleet cadet Gailia (Rachel) will make for far more interesting, not to mention eye-catching, couples costume (or solo, we don’t judge!) this Halloween.
We're not going to have you recreate your own Vulcan (though, hats off to you if you can pull that off!), but we so have some helpful hints (after the jump) to best capture the look of Kirk and Gailia. We’ve tried to make them as budget-friendly as possible (heck, times are probably tough on the USS Enterprise) and cool enough that you’ll (live long and) prosper this October 31st.

Sure, the follow-up to super successful "Twilight" doesn't hit theaters for another month, but that doesn't mean the fantastical characters from Stephenie Meyer's vampire romance won't make for some of the most popular costumes on the block this year — they are vampires for Edward's sake! Though some would argue that the Saga's vegetarian blocksuckers aren't that scary, one "New Moon" character sure to cause a fright on All Hallows' Eve is Volturi guard member Jane (played by Dakota Fanning). Fans of the novel already know Jane is a pint-sized pain inflictor. Just one thought from the evil blonde and helpless prey lie writhing on the floor in the worst agony imaginable. Mimicing her signature, creeptastic look, however, is purely pain free.

Some may say its too soon to base a Halloween costume around a movie that came out the same month, but in the case of the most badass zombie killing sisters around, were going to make an exception. "Zombieland" power girls Wichita and Little Rock (Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin) struck a special chord in our hearts when they managed to look fantastic and fashionable in the middle of the zombie apocalypse while conning and outsmarting Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) and Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) at every step of their journey.
Though you'd think there would be more clothing options available with the rest of the world turned into flesh-eating monsters, Wichita and Little Rock wear the same outfit for the entirety of the film. While we aren't recommending you don't shower for weeks as it is implied the girls were forced to ("Don't say the s-word," Wichita begged her kid sister), there are a few elements of the ladies ensembles you just cant live without.
