The Worst VHS Cover Artwork!

[Nukie 2]

DERR Fire a gun DERRRR!

[KYGOTC]

Wow.. the Silver Surfer in a suit and tie has 4 teens trapped in his head!

This poster looks cool and thanks to whoever posted it because now I want to see this movie.

YA SEE?! THATS what im TALKIN' ABOUT!! If they would just use the ORIGINAL arkwork insteada some misleading photoshoped DOOKIE, they might actually BENIFIT from it and the film could become more POPULAR!!
JEEZIS!

And vukxfiles, I found out about this movie the same way! I saw the poster at a horror convention and decided to hunt it down!

You would think they would have gotten a better looking broad for this cover.




I'm shocked that this classic hasn't made the list.




I like to think the Klan dude got bucked off the horse, broke his neck, and is squirming in his own poop...or maybe its just a bad cover.

[retrorussell]

I know it's just sticker wear, but it looks like a flying log is about to take out the Klansman who's already about to fall off his horse.

Strange juxtaposition on this one.. the review stating she's "a beautiful woman" when we can see skull where the skin's peeled off.  Bleargh!



And this one.. wow, this is just stupid!  A knife stuck in the street (rather difficult to manage) with blood, money and.. what the hell is that in the blood?

They look like there running across an I-BEAM high above the city to me!

That is either an unusually big horse, an unusually tiny klansman, or the horse is much closer to the viewer.

Looks to me like somebody's pinned some toast and peanut butter to the street with a knife, or maybe a burnt Pop Tart. That must be it. Guy burnt his Pop Tart, got mad, pinned to the middle of a highway with a large kitchen knife, and all the berry filling leaked out around it. Then he went on a killing spree against people in blue pantyhose, all because of an overdone breakfast pastry.

Makes sense! 
Seriously, that's a pretty inane cover.  I don't know how I can top that.

DERR Fire a gun DERRRR!

I'm not familiar with that particular rifle. I mean, it looks like some kind of teeny tiny Gatling gun on the end of a regular assault rifle, but all the barrels are firing at once. It has a scope that appears to be completely blocked by the large open sight, which is probably why the scope is pointing off to the right and not straight down the barrel. Why that front sight is there is anyone's guess, since there's no rear sight. But none of that matters because Mr. Don't Ask, Don't Tell isn't bothering to aim it anyway, probably because there's no stock - just a pistol grip placed unusually high on the rear of the weapon. This gun is also unique in that it's fed by both a clip and a belt at the same time. I'm not sure where those large cartridges are going, however, since the barrels look like they couldn't be much larger than .22 calibre.

And then there are the problems with the picture itself, like the faulty perspective. It looks like the barrels flare out from the front of the gun, which also appears to be slightly bent. And since the artist apparently can't draw a foreshortened circle, it looks like the grenade launcher has an angled "baloney cut" on the end, and the scope appears to have a large chrome ball in front of it. Altogether, I'd say that's just about the worst rendering of a gun I've seen on any movie poster.

A lot of work obviously went into this cover. What I find really funny is Patrick kind of looks like Pat Boone in this picture. Beware of Patrick Boone. He's in a coma, yet he can kill with his high-contrast face and dodged, hand-tinted eyes.

[retrorussell]

Yeah.. I can see him saying, "Am I that transparent?"

[AndyC]

"Dammit! I'm going to march right over and tell Ed 'Big Daddy' Roth to keep his dog in his own yard!"

[retrorussell]

Actually, it looks like the dog's laughing.  Like the guy told him a joke.  "A cat walks into a bar.."  ARF!  BWA HA HA HA!!!

[Joe the Destroyer]

It looks like she sharted while this guy was trying to rob her with a kitchen knife, and both are now trying to run away in embarrassment.   This is why I don't eat Tex-Mex fast food very often...

I'm sure Andrew can verify that this gun is 100% legit.

Neat-o.. (not) the skull of a ZZ Top member!



And I know this is supposed to be a silly movie.. but still, that's a pretty dumb cover.  And wait-- is that Dr. Forrester from MST3K?  "Send 'em the movie, Frank!"
