When good costumes go bad! Here's a run-down of how certain masked MK characters have had their masks drastically altered over the years as their live-action representations were modified. The first in almost every set is that from the Mortal Kombat 2 game advert from 1994... after comparing these costumes to practically all other follow-up representations, one can only wonder, what the hell happened to those costumes and why were they never reused? Can you imagine Reptile looking like that in the first movie? Or Shao Kahn like that in Annihilation? Wow... well we can only dream...
