It's really hard to get recognition when you don't have a face but some have managed to pull it off. Here are some skeletons from over the years which you may or may not remember. Some like to march in groups and fight with swords, while others just like to rock out and get their dance on.
Frank The Bunny / Donnie Darko
In the film Donnie Darko, Rabbit skulled Frank the Bunny visits Donnie from an alternate reality. The Halloween sequences also feature Donnie with a skeleton clad torso of his own.
Cobra Kai- "The Karate Kid"
These punk bastards jump Daniel LaRusso and beat him down until Pat Morita saves the day, showing why he earned a best supporting actor nomination from the Academy Awards.
We all loved the original film but the sequels eventually became unforgivable once Hilary Swank was cast in the starring role for part 4. They have already begun production on a remake starring Will Smith’s son Jaden. If anyone has any suggestions on how to prevent this from happening please email me. I hate Will Smith and that whole idea is a completely misguided disaster and is borderline sacrilege.
March of 1,000 Flaming Skeletons
Now an annual event, the Flaming Lips contribute to the Oklahoma City Halloween festivities with this skeletal march where volunteers carry flaming torches while parading through the streets
“Did someone say Skelton?”
Skeleton Dance (1929)
Back in 1929, the folks at Disney were some of the first to show us that, just because they have lost all of their muscular tissue, that doesn’t mean that skeletons can’t still get low on the dancefloor.
The Misfits
Not only did the Misfits incorporate tons of skeleton and skull imagery in their album covers and merchandising but they were also known to wear black eye makeup and resemble the creatures. No one group has done more to bring popularity to the skeleton than Glen Danzig and the Misfits. Plus, when you see a fiend club banner or a Misfits skull, it is immediately recognizable.
My Favorite Vampire
A guide for your all-time favorite vampires
The Slain Of The Hydra- Jason & The Argonauts (1963)
In this famous scene, dead warriors rise from the grave to battle Jason and the Argonauts. You may notice that they aren’t really the most agile creatures
Skeletor
This list would not be complete without Eternia’s “Evil Lord of Destruction” because of his crazy yellow skull and the fact that his name is so close to the word “Skeleton” but, in all reality, his body is actually extremely muscular and blue. I loved Masters of the Universe, but it always kind of confused me anyway.
Touch of Grey
The Dead have always incorporated Skeleton themes into their art throughout the years but, not until the late 80’s when they released their album In The Dark and made a video for the song “Touch Of Grey”, did they become musical skeletons themselves
Dig those obvious puppet strings
Jack Skellington
The Pumpkin King of Halloween town made his first appearance in “The Nightmare Before Christmas” back when Tim Burton was still really on his game. Now he can be found on the gear of the goth tweens everywhere who are responsible for keeping Hot Topic still in business.
Ghost Rider
I know that technically Johnny Blaze isn’t a skeleton but rather a mortal who has an ancient Spirit of Vengeance manifested through him…blah…blah..blah
Regardless, this photo is awesome and is a good reminder that Ghost Rider was actually pretty cool before Nicholas Cage got a hold of the role and destroyed it with his poor acting abilities.
The Army of Darkness
Just another army of undead sword wielding skeletons risen for evil through the use of black magic. The Army of Darkness rounded out the legendary Evil Dead trilogy. The skeleton army is reminiscent of the stop motion counterparts from Jason and the Argonauts, only a lot more bumbling and comical
The Grim Reaper
He’s coming for that ass eventually. Easily the most famous skeleton of all time, Death is sent to collect your souls when your time is up.
