Fred Armisen knows how to make an impression on a red carpet. (Remember his turn as Freddy Krueger at last year’s ceremony?) Nominated for both Portlandia and Documentary Now! in the Variety Sketch Series category, Fred kept the classic movie monster theme going by showing up to the Emmys as Frankenstein — or should we say “Fredinstein.”
And where would Frankenstein be without his lovely Bride? Joining Fred on the red carpet was his date, Orange is the New Black star (and Portlandia guest star) Natasha Lyonne, who adopted an appropriately goth look.

Adding to the horror-riffic entrance was Fred and Natasha’s mode of transportation to the big night — a hearse.

Fred really committed to the part, adopting a red carpet walk that was truly “stiff.”
The Emmys definitely need to keep nominating Fred — his shows are great, plus he gives good red carpet.
