Post your favorite movie posters that are illustrations instead of photos.

Here is one I’ve always loved.

I haven't seen the film, but I always liked this one:

I like the clean look of this:

I used to have this:

I don't know why I like this one, but I just do:

I love the Alice Sweet Alice one also. I was at a film convention last year and a little girl was walking around with the raincoat and mask.

Not familiar with Persona, didn't expect to see that it is a 1960s Ingmar Bergman film (and a famous one at that). Cool, artful poster.

[–] samoanjoes (57773) 10 months ago

Great movie and one of my favourite opening credit sequences.

[–] M1sterDoct0r (4439) 10 months ago

I've seen Premonition with Sandra Bullock. The poster is better than the movie.

[–] WarrenPeace (2267) 10 months ago

I agree.

[–] samoanjoes (57773) 10 months ago

Probably. I haven't heard anyone bring up the film since it came out.

[–] MaximRecoil (4782) 10 months ago

None of those that you linked to are illustrations. They are photographs + typography.

[–] samoanjoes (57773) 10 months ago

Didn't realize until after.

I had that poster of The Thing on my wall in my old apartment.

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21602) 10 months ago

Great one!!

[–] DrexlBickle (2431) 10 months ago

Cool! Have this hanging in my living room.

Both are greats for sure.

[–] WarrenPeace (2267) 10 months ago

I have both of these versions hanging up in two different places in my house unframed because they are cool enough that way.

I had the 1st one hanging in my room as a kid and I always wondered why the people on the poster didn’t look like Luke and Leia :)

[–] db20db (17420) 10 months ago

Great topic, man! All of this visually appealing stuff really livens up this board.

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21602) 10 months ago

The artwork on a cover or poster is sometimes the hook that gets you to watch a film. But yeah, it really is enjoyable seeing what everyone is choosing to post here.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78050) 10 months ago

Can't go wrong with Pam Grier on your poster!

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21602) 10 months ago

I agree 100%. They messed up not getting Pam Grier to be in one of the Conan movies.
