Halloween Costume Ideas for Couples

Halloween costumes for couples are always a hit, but rarely unique (you know who you are, "plug and socket" and "Sonny and Cher"), so Moviefone is changing it up. We've got great Halloween costume ideas for couples and groups based on the hottest movies -- plus a few timeless classics -- that'll keep Halloween interesting. Also, you'll save money with our tips on where to shop and convenient how-to instructions for homemade costumes.

For couples, honor the late Patrick Swayze by dressing up as Johnny and Baby from 'Dirty Dancing.' A group of friends can kick-butt on skates as a roller derby team from 'Whip It.' And even grandpa can join in by teaming up with a grandchild for Carl and Russell from 'Up.'

So check out our costume ideas and make sure you come back throughout October for updates.
