This one was, of course, very tongue-in-cheek, but I've always thought Vacation was one of the funniest and over-the-top movie posters ever. The background, the ridiculous Christie Brinkley pose, Chevy Chase built to almost Conan proportions. Classic poster and classic movie.

Can you imagine if that was a gigantic Trevor and those were his gigantic underpants?
Oh, the humanity!

It's one of those movies where the special effects aren't nearly as cool as what the artwork would lead you to believe. In fact, the effects in this movie are HORRIBLE.
THIS is just TOO precious....

NOW I'm scared.
This poster is misleading on so many levels.

And for sheer awesomeness, It's hard to beat The Towering Inferno.

The artist managed to put just about every cool exterior event into one really impressive painting. Really reminds me how bad today's photoshopped crap is.

I'll go along with you there, Andy. There's something that's been lacking in the digital age, namely compelling artwork.
Holy crap I want that Towering Inferno poster!
I think APE meets this thread's qualifications:

Trust me....there's no way to confuse this with KING KONG, even the '76 version.
Whenever I look at this, I always try to imagine how he would fight with those two weapons at the same time. :teddyr:

Another one that is both over the top and utterly misleading.

Never rented this one, but frequently paused to admire the chick with four boobs. :teddyr:

That artwork for "The Towering Inferno" is incredible. I'd never seen it before. Thank you for posting it!
