Only the other day I was bemoaning the fact that I hadn't been able to take the best photographed of The Hateful Eight costumes on display behind their reflective display cases and windows, but as luck would have it I won an ArcLight Hollywood giveaway for a walk-through of the cinema costume exhibit (along with a bag full of other goodies from the film) on January 21, 2016.
John Ruth and Daisy Domergue costumes
from The Hateful Eight
First up is a closer look at
Kurt Russell's 'John Ruth' bounty hunter costume and
Oscar-nominee
Jennifer Jason Leigh's killer
'Daisy Domergue' costume. In
Quentin Tarantino's latest
film he's transporting the murdering woman in chains to the town of
Red Rock in blizzard conditions in post-
Civil War Wyoming.

Courtney Hoffman was
Costume Designer on this bloody
Western mystery and the next costume, which I think will make for a great
Halloween or
Cosplay costume, was worn by
Samuel L. Jackson as the bounty hunter
'Major Marquis Warren' (although it's a shame the mannequin is holding his iconic-looking white leather gloves, rather than wearing them)'.

If you're a fan of the actor, be sure to also check out his
Nick Fury costume from Avengers: Age of Ultron on display.
Chris Mannix costume from The Hateful Eight
Next up is a clear view of the costume worn by Walton Goggins as the shifty 'Sheriff Chris Mannix', which was previously obscured by the other costumes and props on display.
Bob The Mexican costume from The Hateful Eight
In the film Demián Bichir plays 'Bob The Mexican', the supposed caretaker of Minnie's Haberdashery, the stagecoach lodge where all these strangers find themselves in the storm.
Oswaldo Mowbry costume from The Hateful Eight
Tim Roth stars as Red Rock's talkative British hangman, 'Oswaldo Mowbry' and wears this outfit in the movie.
General Sandy Smithers costume from The Hateful Eight
Bruce Dern plays 'General Sanford "Sandy" Smithers', an elderly, proud Confederate veteran. And in addition to all these costumes worn by the main cast, the props featured in this exhibit are also screen used items.
Joe Gage costume from The Hateful Eight
And finally here's a closer look at Michael Madsen's 'Joe Gage' character costume from all angles. Seeing screen-used costumes and props up close really does heighten your cinema going experience in my opinion.
