iPad-equipped Quatto costume for Halloween

OK, this is a little weird, and a little gross, but if you're as big a fan of Total Recall as I am, you'll love it. One of the characters in that movie, named Quatto, actually lives in the stomach of another character, and rather than recreate the creepy effect with puppets or makeup, YouTube user minimatefactory just put some high resolution video of the character on his iPad, and then he strapped it to his shirt to wear around.

The effect isn't completely realistic, of course (it looks like he's got a video screen on his stomach), but it is a clever Halloween costume, and clever goes a long way after a few drinks at a Halloween party. Just stay away from bobbing for apples -- you don't want the iPad getting wet or falling into someone's candy bag to take home.

Show me a Teletubby costume. Tossing an ipad under your salvation army wardrobe isn't much of a feat.

This isn't even in my top three breast Total Recall costumes.

Not only was it "Kuato" as another commenter noted (the name is actually shown during the film as graffiti on a wall), but it did not "[live] in the stomach of another character," but rather was more like a twin that didn't fully develop which was merely located in the abdominal area of the other character.
