Astonishing Polish Movie Posters...

Sat Mar 11, 2006, 6:06 PM
...that is, movie posters for Polish releases of famous American (& other) movies! I flipped when I saw this. Most movies posters these days depict one or two pouty-faced close-ups of the stars, and maybe an explosion or whatever . Dull movie poster design has also carried over to the DVD cases as well. But over at the Retrocrush site, you can see some extraordinary work:

"While most movie posters in the United States pretty much showcase the standard corporate style imagery to hawk the film, the fine folks in Poland have a brilliant dramatic license when marketing Hollywood's finest in their country, resulting in some of the most brilliantly surreal and amazing pieces of movie artwork ever created. Some of them are obvious, some seem to be crazy nonsequiters that have nothing to do with the original picture, while others seem to change the focus of the movie altogether. Weekend At Bernies now looks more like a horror film, and Polish poster for The Terror of Mechagodzilla looks as if it was animated by the folks that made Yellow Submarine." Take a look! [link]
