Khalar Zym and Marique costumes from Conan the Barbarian remake...

In addition to the titular hero's costume and his love interest 'Tamara', ArcLight Hollywood cinema also had costumes worn by the villains in the Conan the Barbarian remake on display in its foyer on August 12, 2011.

In this re-imagining of the original 1982 movie, Jason Momoa wields Conan's sword in the role made famous by Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Stephen Lang stars as the ruthless warlord 'Khalar Zym', with Rose McGowan playing the evil witch 'Marique', his daughter.

One of the most impressive outfits on display was the gold faux-chainmail dress worn by Rose McGowan as villainous sorceress.

As you can see, some fairly spectacular hair and make-up completes the otherworldly look. I can't help but feel this would make a fantastic Halloween costume.

In addition to his costume, Khalar Zym's sword was also included in the exhibit. Out of its sheath you can see it has a special double blade which can be used in a pincering motion.
