Zombies, Nazis, stranded holiday makers and Peter Cushing…if this sounds like your kind of fun then you probably are a fan of Ken Wiederhorn’s enjoyable horror romp “Almost Human” (AKA Shock Waves). Nostalgic 70’s hokum that is complemented by a first rate film poster as the SS ‘Death Corps’ take centre stage in a great example of horror artwork…good use of bold day-glo colours in the title and striking well balanced design. Certainly a rare find and even more so in such excellent high grade condition. Originally rolled (as issued) this 1977 UK quad film poster is offered in superb unrestored condition and presents and displays to excellent effect and represents a rare piece of hugely collectable original 70’s horror movie memorabilia.
Trivia: The zombies weren’t originally supposed to be wearing goggles but when extra Max Trumpton returned from recent glaucoma surgery in protective eyewear the director liked the ‘look’ so much he instructed the wardrobe department to make a pair for each zombie.

Blood Beast Terror (1968) was a Tony Tensor, Tigon Films release – a British studio providing real competition t0 Hammer, for so long the leading horror film producer in the UK. The British poster campaign was represented by a stunningly colourful UK quad, a mixture of illustration and photo montage, with some truly gruesome imagery.

“Transylvania, land of dark forests, dread mountains and black, unfathomed lakes. Still the home of magic and devilry as the nineteenth century draws to it’s close. Count Dracula, monarch of all vampires, is dead, but his disciples live on, to spread the cult and corrupt the world.!”
Terence Fisher’s “Brides of Dracula” is my top three favourite Hammer Film. Wonderfully written, superbly acted. Peter Cushing is a joy to behold as Van Helsing. His memorable scene in which he exsises the vampires bite from his neck is iconic. Hammer’s follow up to their hugely successful Dracula (Horror of in some territories). Featuring a version of the beautiful painted artwork used on the British quad, this original Spanish one-sheet from 1960 is a genuine thing of beauty where the imagery (in my humble opinion) suits the portrait format better than the landscape format of the quad. Colours are superb, with the ‘blood’ red of the title particularly vibrant. Originally folded (as issued), this rare example has been conservation linen backed and looks absolutely superb with the fold lines having been touched in it now appears rolled. An extremely desirable and collectable item of horror movie cinematic memorabilia.

“The Time: Now. The Place: Kings Road, Chelsea. The Killer: Count Dracula !“
Some truly horrific photo montage artwork for “Dracula A.D.1972” makes this Japanese B2 film poster from 1972 (would you believe it ?) one of my personal favourite Hammer posters. It’s more than you can shake stake at with Caroline Munro and Stephanie Beacham certainly putting the glamour into Hammer ! And if that doesn’t appeal totally stealing the action is one of the coolest British cars ever made; the beautiful Triumph Stag and dominating the imagery, a particularly eerie shot of Christopher Lee as the titular Count.

“The Nightmare Has Already Killed Five People – Now It’s Yours To Live !”
A great looking horror poster from the early 1970’s for Peter Sasdy’s much under rated horror thriller starring Christopher Lee & Peter Cushing. This original Nothing But The Night movie poster is from first year of release, 1972 and is a striking example of horror poster design and artwork by Vic Fair that certainly remains in the memory; a flaming star featuring a hanged man; a creepy clown with fireworks for fingers. Very rare and hard to find in such excellent original unrestored condition; the black background is a deep unfaded black whilst the coloured imagery is bright and truly stands out. This scarce, rolled (as issued) example displays and presents superbly and represents an extremely collectable piece of 1970’s British horror cinema memorabilia.
TRIVIA: This movie was the first and last film produced by a production company called Charlemagne which Christopher Lee and Anthony Nelson-Keys created and attempted to make successful, sadly it didn’t work out.

“My revenge has spread over centuries and has just begun!”
The Satanic Rites of Dracula (1974) was the eighth Hammer film and the seventh and final one to feature Christopher Lee as Count Dracula and the last time Lee and Peter Cushing would star together. The British poster campaign was illustrated by Hammer’s regular artist Tom Chantrell. The green-wash background contrasts effectively with the red Day-Glo title of the film, with Lee’s Dracula the focus of attention against a London skyline featuring the familiar landmarks of Big Ben and the Post-Office Tower. Presented unrestored and in excellent original folded (as issued) condition, this originally belonged to the renowned horror historian and collector Forrest Ackerman and is accompanied by a certificate from his Estate. A personal favourite of mine and featured in Marcus Hearn’s excellent book “The Art of Hammer”. An excellent investment grade example of original rare Hammer Horror movie memorabilia.
Trivia: Count Dracula poses as a multi-millionaire who is never seen in public and never photographed. A 1970s audience would inevitably have been reminded of the eccentric and reclusive Howard Hughes.

Trivia: The word “Jedi” is derived from the Japanese words “Jidai Geki,” which translate as “period adventure drama.” A period adventure drama is a Japanese television soap opera program set in the samurai days. George Lucas mentioned in an interview that he saw a “Jidai Geki” program on television while in Japan a year or so before the movie was made, and he liked the word.
What is Giclee ?
Derived from the French term gicler – meaning ‘to squirt or spray’, the term describes a printing process whereby microscopic dots of pigment-based ink are sprayed onto archival-quality paper to ensure the fidelity of a limited edition print to an original artwork.
The richness, accuracy and depth of colour is thanks to the method’s potential to achieve a huge colour gamut (the spectrum of colours distinguishable by the human eye). Unlike the four tones used in lithography, giclées often use five: light cyan, cyan, light magenta, yellow and black.
Fantastic for reproductions which require maximum detail, giclées are most commonly found on watercolour paper or canvas, but can also be created on glass. Different types of paper will produce different effects. Matte paper works well behind glass due its lack of reflectivity, whilst the shine of a glossy finish can give an artwork a brighter appearance.
