  American Psycho

  £275.00

  “…no introduction necessary”

  For me, one of the reasons the alternative movie poster market is so well regarded, Jack Hughes’ impressive alternative movie poster for Mary Harron’s serial killer cult thriller “American Psycho” hits all the right chords – demonic possession, an alter ego represented by the face peel right from the movie. Just creepy and dark and like a Francis Bacon painting it makes you feel the pain. Released in 2021 it presents to excellent effect being originally rolled (as issued), featuring a design perfectly suited to the movie’s tone and feel. A stylish and memorable poster, that is hand-numbered #199 from a print run of 220 from that represents a very collectable item of cult original movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: The film had various problems with designer labels during production. Cerruti agreed to allow Christian Bale to wear their clothes, but not when the character was killing anyone. Rolex agreed that anyone in the film could wear their watches except Bateman (hence the famous line from the book “Don’t touch the Rolex” had to be changed to “Don’t touch the watch”). Perry Ellis provided underwear at the last minute after Calvin Klein pulled out of the project. Comme des Garçons refused to allow one of their overnight bags to be used to carry a corpse, so Jean Paul Gaultier was used instead.

  The Punisher

  £35.00

  “Judge, Jury, and Executioner is what The Punisher is.”

  “The Punisher” may be one of the darkest comic book characters ever created. This film and especially Thomas Jane, get that which makes this film is one of the better in the genre, because it sticks to the source better than most. By 2004 the cinema had already seen an influx of ‘big-budget’ super hero movies; X-Men, Spiderman, Hulk as well as a re-imagined Batman so a ‘new’ Punisher was a safe bet as the character of Frank Castle still one of the most popular creations and a corner stone of the ‘Marvel Universe’. Designed by creative arts agency Intralink Film Graphic Design this original 2004 UK quad film poster is typical of the character, dark & moody. Originally rolled (as issued) this looks and displays to excellent effect with impressive artwork highlighting both The Punisher (Thomas Jane) & his protagonist Howard Saint (John Travolta). It represents a fine piece of collectible ‘comic book’ cinema movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: Seeing as he had only one involvement with the creation of the original Punisher character; (changing the character from ‘The Assassin’ to ‘The Punisher’) this is one of the few movies based on a Marvel Comic in which Stan Lee does not appear.
