Comic-Con poster of Don't be Afraid of the Dark

Ok. I wrote in my last post that we don't have many illustrated movie posters nowadays. And today I found out this beautiful poster for Guillermo del Toro's remake "Don't be Afraid of the Dark".


However, this poster was presented at Comic-Con 2010, an event that celebrates the contribution of comics to art and culture. Make senses to be illustrated.

Classic illustrated Barbarella Posters

Barbarella is a classic sci-fi movie from 1968 where you can see a highly sexual woman (Jane Fonda) trying to find and stop the evil. And here you can see some interesting posters from that epoch. They were basically illustrations or photography with illustrations like most of them until the '90s.









Unfortunately, we don't have many illustrated movie posters nowadays. I love them.

One more thing, if you are too young and have no idea about the movie, you should see the original trailer below.

Great Ad art for Hill Valley (Back to the Future)

Stunning vintage artwork based on Back To The Future, created by Eric Tan for the annual Crazy 4 Cult art show in Los Angeles - USA. It's a magazine Ad for promoting the town of Hill Valley in the '50s.

The cool thing is that there are two signs of the influence of Marty's visit to his future home town of the past, as Eric said. One is pretty obvious, but the another one is not so clear.

Piranha posters

Check out the French poster for Alexandre Aja's Piranha 3D remake. Very nice the design and is still inspired by the original Piranha's poster which in turn was inspired by the classic Jaws poster.

Much different from the official US Teaser poster as you can see below.
