Favorite Movie Posters

**Exo** · 07-16-2015, 08:28 PM

Anybody else like posters? I think I'd love them even if I wasn't a huge movie fan. Most are done by independent artists and come out so good. I consider them works of serious art, not just advertisements for movies. Anyway, share your favorites! Here are mine...

Blow Up

Enemy

Jaws

The Thing

Rosemary's babe

Eraserhead

The Exorcist

I'll post more later.

Just because it sums up pretty much every James Bond movie.

This is probably my personal bias, but the Polish school of movie posters (it really exists) is something I find equally fascinating and bizarre. Both the graphics and translation, for example here

is the 1st Terminator poster.... only it's not called the Terminator, it's Elektroniczny Mordeca - electronic murderer. Why ? Terminator in polish means apprentice.
