About the Item
This is an original 1980 French movie poster for “Fog” (The Fog), the cult horror film directed by John Carpenter and starring Jamie Lee Curtis, Adrienne Barbeau, and Janet Leigh. Designed by renowned poster artist Michel Landi, it was created for the film’s French release under the chilling tagline “Derrière la brume… l’horreur !” (Behind the mist… horror!).
Michel Landi (1932–2017) was one of France’s leading cinema poster artists from the 1960s to the 1990s, known for his dramatic and unforgettable imagery. Here, he depicts an eerie, wide-eyed female face emerging from the grey mist, her terrified expression hinting at the supernatural menace hidden within the fog. The film’s blood-dripping red title typography intensifies its unsettling effect.
“The Fog,” released in 1980, is John Carpenter’s atmospheric ghost story about a coastal town haunted by vengeful spirits hidden within a creeping fog. It became an instant genre classic and further cemented Carpenter’s reputation after his success with Halloween (1978).
This poster also bears the Prix de la Critique award mention from the Avoriaz Fantastic Film Festival 1980, adding further collectibility for horror and cinema history enthusiasts.

1982 vintage poster by Razzia for the Paris Posters exhibition
By Razzia (Gérard Courbouleix–Dénériaz)
Located in PARIS, FR
This striking 1982 vintage poster, designed by Razzia, was created to promote the Paris Posters exhibition at the Musée de l’Affiche et de la Publicité during the summer (Été 82). Featuring a bold and graphic collage-style composition, the artwork embodies the dynamic energy of 1980s design.
Razzia, a renowned French graphic artist, is celebrated for his iconic Art Deco-inspired poster designs with a modern twist. In this piece, he juxtaposes a stylized black-and-white Eiffel Tower, a monochrome portrait of a woman, and an accordion transformed into the Arc de Triomphe, all set against a dramatic black background with vivid color accents.
The use of cutout-style imagery and neon-inspired typography reflects the postmodern aesthetic of the early 1980s, capturing the bold creativity of the era. The vibrant contrast of yellow, red, and blue highlights adds to the poster’s visual impact, making it a standout example of contemporary French graphic design.
A rare and collectible piece, this original Razzia poster...
