Minya Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I have to say, every time I see the new Karloff posters, it makes me think of *Arsenic and Old Lace* and how Raymond Massey's character gets upset because everybody keeps telling him he reminds them of Boris Karloff.

thewaymouth Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Nice work, as always. Thank you so very much. Tomorrow sounds fun. HAPPY HALLOWEEN. Nice colors in the posters for The Man With Nine Lives and The Devil Commands. (Wish TMC were showing one or more of my favorite Karloff's, such as Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, Son of Frankenstein, or The Mummy.) The Nosferatu posters are horrific. The creepiest and most striking of all might be The Match King. The giant circle with red lettering at the top spelling out the title reminds me of a match head, with the two lovers chin-to-chin forming the matchstick. The girl looks up with eyes closed but in open lust and trust, whereas the man seems lost in doubt, looking with open eye, down and away...

Minya Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 When these posters were first loading, all I could see was the top of the red mask and I have to tell you, I thought it was a giant tomato. For a moment I thought it was a poster for *Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlywdkjk Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 *"Psycho, Cat People, and The Curse of the Cat People? Sensory overload!"* - FrankGrimes Well, it's been nearly two years since I last posted images for any of those films so I felt the time had come again. *"This is my kind of Halloween party."* And it is only the 30th.

DougieB Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Love the photo of Hitchcock on the "Psycho" poster. Who would DARE to disobey him? Was this the first film to deny entry after it started? I remember a few movies using that hook for ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me this poster was always a quintessential '30s film poster. Just perfect in its style and execution - even though it told you nothing about the plot of the film. Thanks for the compliments and I hope you enjoy Halloween. Kyle In Holllywood Edited by: hlywdkjk on Oct 31, 2009 7:42 AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lzcutter Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Chief, The styling of *The Black Cat* is just wonderful. Foreign graphic designers must not have been under the same constraints as American poster designers. Happy Halloween! and thank you for sharing these wonderful image with us! And, btw, I agree with you, Mme. Minya is a pirate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
