Title: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: AnubisVonMojo on August 28, 2008, 07:51:52 PM Yep, it's another list! I was perusing posters to use as possible promotional prizes in the future for The Tomb and I thought it necessary to throw up another "100" list. So many awesome images to choose from, but only 100 spots!
Basic rules apply: ONE (1) entry at a time per person. Additionally, if you nominate a poster, please don't try to skirt this rule by nominating another in the immediate slot following. I'm guilty of doing this myself. Please allow at least one other person to nominate their poster before you post another. For any posts that nominate multiple posters, only the first one will be counted. Also, to cut down on confusion, PLEASE BE SURE TO NUMBER YOUR SUGGESTION. I thought of denying any entry that wasn't numbered, but then I realized I would be going mad with the limited amount of power I've been given, thus making me no better than Kevin MacDonald in that "Kids in the Hall" skit... "Damn it KYGOTC, I told you to stay under your desk!" :hatred: heh heh Oh yeah, and if you want to nominate a different poster for a movie that's already been nominated, that's more than cool. THIS LIST ENCOMPASSES ALL MOVIES, NOT JUST B-MOVIES... whatever that term means anymore... Let the games begin! No.1 - Brain Damage - Though I think the Germans lost something in the translation of the title, I've always enjoyed their poster for Brain Damage. The hero's exploding head isn't as impressive as the American version, but Aylmer's "brain sundae" makes up for it. Wish I could have found a larger image though... (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m43/AnubisVonMojo/Elmer.jpg) 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters No.1 - Brain Damage (German "Elmer" version)No.2 - 300 ("lemmings" version) No.3 - A Clockwork Orange No.4 - The Killer Shrews No.5 - Army of Darkness ("Chosen One" version) No.6 - Maniac No.7 - The Damned No.8 - Army of Darkness (Japanese "Captain Supermarket" version) No.9 - Godzilla Vs. MechaGodzilla II (Japanese version) No.10 - Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (Coleman illustrated version) No.11 - April Fool's Day No.12 - Attack of the Killer Tomatoes No.13 - Black Frankenstein (non-monster version) No.14 - The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: the Beginning No.15 - The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 No.16 - The Breakfast Club No.17 - Westworld No.18 - Astro-Zombies (super cheezy "cartoon" version) No.19 - Streets of Fire No.20 - Metropolis (German "bronzed" version) No.21 - Godzilla Vs. the Thing ("?" teaser version) No.22 - The Mummy (1932) No.23 - A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: the Dream Warriors No.24 - Dr. Stranglove (illustrated version) No.25 - Masters of the Universe No.26 - Frogs No.27 - Nosferatu (illustrated version) No.28 - Krull No.29 - Attack of the 50ft. Woman No.30 - Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan No.31 - Friday the 13th Part VIII (discontinued "I <3 NY" version) Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: darthchicken on August 28, 2008, 09:09:04 PM 2: 300.. something about people pushing other people off cliffs appeals to me.

(http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t214/morrisawilliams/killer_shrews.jpg) Best Poster Ever! Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: dean on August 29, 2008, 08:11:28 AM 5. I always liked the Evil Dead Posters, so I'd lump them in the same category, but I always had a particular fondness for Army of Darkness [even if I have an Evil Dead 1 poster at home on the wall]
(http://artfiles.art.com/images/-/Army-of-Darkness-Poster-C10100244.jpeg) Ok so I know I might be breaking the rules, but I also liked the other version of the Army of Darkness poster as well. I'm going to post a version for variety's sake and since they're all the same movie Anubis can stuff it up his vonmojo if he deems me out of line! :teddyr: I hope to make up for it however by posting an alternative of the version I like. I like the creative use of soup cans to reinforce Bruce's name in the Japanese psyche. Crazy poster overload!: (http://www.nerdcore.de/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/army-of-darkness-japanese-poster.jpg) Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: Mr. DS on August 29, 2008, 08:15:07 AM 6.)

The intensity of Charlotte Rampling is not often met. However, the poster is probably not appropriate to post on here. So, I'll go with one of my other favs..

If they had shown a pic of the Blackenstien monster I don't think too many people, beyond geeks like us,would be too impressed. I just like the straight up, screaming,half nekid chick!

(http://www.badmovies.org/common/forum/streetsfire_poster.jpg) Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: Raffine on August 30, 2008, 11:16:36 AM Believe it or not, some of the coolest posters come from Poland.
Here's a few of their takes on famous American films: THE FLY (http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t214/morrisawilliams/4081.jpg) STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE (http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t214/morrisawilliams/4078.jpg) RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t214/morrisawilliams/4079.jpg) THE SHINING (http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t214/morrisawilliams/4334.jpg) I particularly like how RAIDERS appears to be some sort of Lovecraftian nightmare. Here's a link to a site with images lots of these posters. I was gonna post the one for ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES but it's quite pornographic - especially for a film that was rated G! If you have a few hundred bucks to spare you can even buy a few! :bouncegiggle: http://www.polishposter.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=MP Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: RCMerchant on August 30, 2008, 11:38:26 AM That SHINING poster is INCREDIBLE!!!! I would like that hanging on the front door to my house on Halloween!
Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: the master on August 30, 2008, 02:26:43 PM 20(i think). i aways remeber this poster METROPOLIS
(http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t196/orac1977/metropolispost1.jpg) and i like the shining and the raiders one alot if someone asked me what movie the poster was for i would not say raiders lol Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: AnubisVonMojo on August 30, 2008, 02:46:58 PM Though I do agree with Raffine that Poland makes some amazing art posters, as posted in the rules of the thread only his first submission can be accepted. If Raff or anybody else wants to nominate some of those posters themselves one-at-a-time though that's more than cool. As such, the Polish poster for The Fly is No.20 and Master's Metropolis poster is No.21.
With that settled... No.22 - Godzilla Vs. the Thing - I dropped a little too much money on an original print of this beauty a few years ago, but don't regret it. This was a great promotional poster made up when the identity of Godzilla's next opponent (Mothra) had yet to be revealed. Personally, I'd like to see a movie where Godzilla actually fights a giant question mark, but somehow I don't see that happening... :wink: (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m43/AnubisVonMojo/POSTER-GODZILLAVSTHETHING.jpg) Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: Allhallowsday on August 30, 2008, 03:32:45 PM 23. THE MUMMY (1932)

Just some interesting examples of some 'alternate posters'. So METROPOLIS is #20 by my count! :twirl: Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: AnubisVonMojo on August 30, 2008, 03:40:22 PM Okay, since Raff's submissions weren't actually submissions I'll drop The Fly and Metropolis will be No.20, Godzilla Vs. the Thing is now No.21, and The Mummy is No.22... So says Ape law! :tongueout:

Anyway, I straightened everything out on the master list. Also, if anybody else wants to post images from impawards.com, I recommend opening a photobucket account first, then uploading the images there so the rest of us can see them too. Thanks. :tongueout:
No.31 - Friday the 13th Part 8 "I <3 NY" version - Discontinued because nobody at Paramount bothered to see if there was a copyright on the "I <3 NY" design before printing up the posters, this is one of our favorite wall decorations here at the Anubis household. :teddyr: (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m43/AnubisVonMojo/i-heart-ny.jpg) Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: Psycho Circus on September 03, 2008, 01:37:25 PM No.32 Apocalypse Now!

([url]http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t214/morrisawilliams/its_alive.jpg[/url]) I vividly remember this poster and the equally disturbing minimalist ad: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8xe8p6zECQ&feature=related[/url] That TV ad freaked me out so much as a kid, I refused to watch that movie in my teens, when I was watching just about every horror movie I could get my hands on. Somebody rented it, and I simply refused, and did something else until it was over. Come to think of it, I still haven't seen It's Alive, and I don't think I want to. I've heard the actual movie is pretty cheesy, but the thought of that ad gives me the heebie-jeebies. Title: Re: 100 Awe Inspiring Movie Posters Post by: RCMerchant on July 19, 2011, 03:58:27 AM 61. Al Adamson movies always had great poster art. Usually by comic book artist Gray Morrow. Sam Aherman,Al's partner in crime-was once the editor for Warren Publishing (Famous Monsters,Creepy,Vampirella) magazine SCREEN THRILLS-and had employed Morrow for the mag.
