1978 Halloween Original Vintage Poster

About the Item

One of the greatest and influential horror films of all time, John Carpenter's "Halloween" was released in 1978. Produced on a budget of $300,000 and directed, scored and co-written by Carpenter, the film went on to gross over $70 million and became one of the most profitable films ever. Spawning a franchise that consists of 13 films to date, the iconic film featuring Michael Myers has an iconic poster to match. Robert Gleason's haunting artwork depicts a knife wielding pumpkin face and is instantly recognisable. This US One-Sheet poster is from the original International release of the film in 1978 and is in great condition.

'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' Original Vintage Movie Poster, Czech, 1978
Located in Devon, GB
A fantastically bizarre poster by Jan Weber for the first Czech release of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." Although Western films were shown during the Soviet era in the Communist Bloc, American publicity materials were banned, allowing the state-commissioned artists to operate with total creative freedom from the demands of the big Hollywood studios, offering quirky and sometimes surreal interpretations which often had little reference to the film. Weber's intense halftone design featuring a triplicate of manic Jack Nicholson faces is presumably a nod to insanity and multiple personality disorders. Based on the 1962 novel of the same name by Ken Kesey...
