One of cinemas all time classic movies is Ridley Scott’s Oscar winning deep space horror “Alien”. The worldwide marketing campaign is instantly recognisable by the (now) iconic alien ‘egg’ imagery designed by the creative agency Bemis Balkind, and it was accompanied by a wealth of other memorabilia to market the movie. This included fully licensed Studio items, and the two lobby cards available here are first class examples of that high quality officially endorsed material. These are from a special commercial set of two colour prints that was “Published by Turn-Point Publishing Corp.” at the time of the film’s release in 1979 and sold primarily through the sci-fi comic book store ‘Forbidden Planet’. The images chosen couldn’t be more striking- a close up of the iconic chestburster scene as the Alien first appears bursting out of Kane’s (John Hurt) body and as the film reaches its climax the fully formed Alien is about to attack Ripley (Sigourney Weaver). Neither of these images (it would have been a bit of a spoiler) appear in any other lobby card images for the movie. Originally flat and unfolded (as issued) these two cards present and display to very good effect, with only minimal handling wear. Hugely collectable and a fantastic piece of cinematic movie memorabilia from a truly influential movie that changed the face of modern sci-fi horror forever.
Trivia: Director Sir Ridley Scott and writers Dan O’Bannon and Ronald Shusett wanted H.R. Giger to design the alien creatures based on drawings from his book ‘Necronomicon’, but they had some difficulties in convincing the studio. Executives were initially appalled by Giger’s dark and disturbing imagery, but Scott’s insistence finally won them over. Even so, Giger’s designs had to be changed several times because of their blatant sexuality.

One of cinemas all time classic movies is Ridley Scott’s Oscar winning deep space horror “Alien”. Spawning numerous cinematic and TV sequels, with Fede Alvarez’ 2024 offering “Alien: Romulus” a personal favourite. The release was accompanied by an incredible series of high quality posters, but it was this offering here by Matt Ferguson that really stole the show, with artwork that is considered one of the best looking for the whole franchise. Printed in extremely limited numbers for use in cinemas of Ferguson’s choice, these UK quads have become hugely collectable and a must have poster for xenomorph fans. Offered rolled (as issued) and signed by Matt Ferguson this example presents and displays to excellent effect that represents a fantastic piece of cinematic movie memorabilia that is incredibly scarce.
Trivia: The film’s production design draws not only on the previous films in the series, but also the Alien: Isolation (2014) video game, including the “Emergency” communication stations which served as save points in the game. Fede Alvarez played the game around the time Don’t Breathe (2016) was released, and later said, “I was playing, and realising how terrifying Alien could be if you take it back to that tone.”

So it came as no surprise that Matt’s artwork was adapted to the portrait format and used as the cover art for the 4K, BluRay Steelbook issued by Vice Press. The first 250 of these steelbooks were accompanied by one of these limited edition posters, with the print offered here being #157. These prints have become hugely collectable and a must have poster for xenomorph fans.

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.

“One person can change your life forever.”
Despite being caught in her imaginative world, Amelie (Audrey Tautou), a young waitress, decides to help people find happiness. Her quest to spread joy leads her on a journey where she finds true love. Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s is a truly heart warming cinematic experience, with the casting of Audrey Tautou as the titular Amelie or to give its full title Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amelie Poulain a masterstroke. So it’s no surprise to see her featured so prominently on the movie posters that accompanied the release in 2001. The UK quad from this first year of release was originally rolled and displays superbly – it really is a beautiful, character focused film poster that represents a fine item of cinematic movie memorabilia.
Trivia: The main colors in the film (green, yellow and red) are inspired by the paintings of the Brazilian artist Juarez Machado.

“One person can change your life forever.”
Despite being caught in her imaginative world, Amelie (Audrey Tautou), a young waitress, decides to help people find happiness. Her quest to spread joy leads her on a journey where she finds true love. Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s is a truly heart warming cinematic experience, with the casting of Audrey Tautou as the titular Amelie or to give its full title Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amelie Poulain a masterstroke. Artist Javi Aznarez has created the definitive visual tribute to celebrate its 25th anniversary for the UK theatrical re-release. Commissioned by Curzon Film, Javi’s poster is an intricate, hand-drawn map of Montmartre that captures the whimsical soul of the 2001 classic. The poster serves as a meticulous “Ligne Claire” tapestry, weaving together the film’s many subplots and eccentricities into a singular, cohesive artwork. Javi’s focus on the fine details mirrors the film’s own obsession with life’s small treasures:
The Roster of Characters: From the patrons of the Café des Deux Moulins to the quiet intensity of Nino, every face is a character study in itself.
The Iconography: The traveling garden gnome, the photo booth reconstructions, and the warm, red-hued interiors of Amélie’s apartment are all present.
The Settings: The winding streets and hidden corners of Paris are brought to life through Javi’s signature hand-drawn Ligne Claire style.
.In a digital age, Javi’s work stands out for its craftsmanship and conceptual wit. By eschewing standard photographic layouts for a dense, illustrative narrative, he honours the artisanal spirit that made Amélie a global phenomenon.
Incredibly scarce as it was exclusive to Curzon cinemas, the UK quad offered here is presented in near perfect condition and represents one of the best looking film posters currently available and a future classic for collectors and fans of the movie – a visual delight.
Artist Javi Aznarez had this to say about the poster – “It was great fun drawing all the characters and settings from the film. I watched it loads of times when I was younger; I love @jeanpierrejeunet_officiel films, especially Delicatessen and Amélie. Thanks to @curzonfilm for the gift.“

After the huge success in 1982 for the Oscar winning “An Officer and a Gentleman”, Richard Gere was a global superstar and the most bankable male actor at the box office. Paramount Pictures were quick to exploit his success and re-released (even though it was only originally released in 1980) Paul Schrader’s “American Gigolo” with the knowing tagline… “In American Gigolo Richard Gere is neither an Officer nor a Gentleman” which was adapted to run alongside the familiar imagery of the original 1980 UK quad film poster. Rare in this style, it is actually a very effective design. Originally folded (as issued) this unrestored example presents and displays very well and represents a highly desirable piece of original movie memorabilia for one of the most stylish films of the 80’s.
TRIVIA…This movie represented the Hollywood breakthrough of leading clothes designer GIORGIO ARMANI who provided the stylish clothes for Richard Gere’s well dressed male escort.
“When Smokey Sings” the hit 1987 song by ABC was inspired by the scene in the movie where Richard Gere is seen meticulously choosing what clothes to wear out.

John Landis’ “An American Werewolf in London” is one of the best werewolf movies ever made, full of dark humour and gory thrills. As most people know, this has one of the best human/werewolf transformation scenes in cinematic history. Unlike modern monster/horror movies of today, this film has no CGI or computer-aided special effects; what you see on the screen is a physical production made piece for which Rick Baker won the Oscar. This signed Artist Proof (AP) alternative movie poster by Graham Humphreys is a proper horror poster. Humphreys has cleverly included all the main characters, David (Naughton) becoming the werewolf and the suitably named ‘Slaughtered Lamb’. Presented in excellent condition this rolled (as issued) example displays superbly and is an impressive piece of horror poster artwork and is a hugely desirable alternative movie poster.
For Graham’s thoughts and inspiration for the poster design checkout this superb interview with Dread Central.
Trivia: Rick Baker claimed to have been disappointed by the amount of time spent shooting the face changing shot for the transformation after having spent months working on the mechanism. John Landis only required one take lasting about seven seconds. Baker felt he had wasted his time until seeing the film with an audience that applauded during that one seven second shot.

Although the Andy Warhol name is only referred to in the title for Paul Morrissey’s 1974 campy, shock horror “Andy Warhol’s Flesh for Frankenstein” it cannot be said that the accompanying front of house lobby cards (not by Warhol) for this Bryanston Pictures release are not artistically impressive with some stylish horror and character imagery. The card I chose to highlight the set is a fantastic homage to the gothic horror offerings of the past with a female and male ‘zombie’ creation by Baron Frankenstein. Any memorabilia with a Warhol connection is very collectable and this complete set of all eight (8) front of house lobby cards is no exception. Presented unrestored, in original fla/folded (as issued) condition this lovely set displays very well and represents a fine collection of original movie memorabilia.
Trivia: The film was shot with a 3D technique called Spacevision. Unlike other 3D films that usually required red and blue glasses, this one required polarized glasses with one lens slightly shifted, which allowed full colors in the film. The 3D effects were mostly pronounced in the center of the screen.

“NASA realized after the Apollo 11 mission had returned to Earth that they had no good pictures of the First Man on the Moon to show to the world. Astronaut Buzz Aldrin said later: ‘As the sequence of lunar operations evolved, Neil had the camera most of the time, and the majority of pictures taken on the Moon that include an astronaut are of me. It wasn’t until we were back on Earth and in the lunar receiving laboratory, looking over the pictures, that we realised there were few pictures of Neil. My fault, perhaps, but we had never simulated this in our training.’.”
In 2019 it was 50 years since Man first walked on the Moon and this excellent UK quad is the perfect complement to this historic moment. “Apollo 11” from Todd Douglas Miller is crafted from a newly discovered trove of 70mm footage, and more than 11,000 hours of uncatalogued audio recordings, “Apollo 11” takes us straight to the heart of NASA’s most celebrated mission—the one that first put men on the moon, and forever made Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin into household names. Immersed in the perspectives of the astronauts, the team in Mission Control, and the millions of spectators on the ground, we vividly experience those momentous days and hours in 1969 when humankind took a giant leap into the future. The Buzz Aldrin ‘Visor’ photograph taken by Neil Armstrong is one of the most famous images in the world, it’s a poignant & almost haunting image. Presented with minimal handling wear, and offered in rolled (as issued) condition this displays to superb effect and represents a truly fine item of historically important film poster memorabilia.
“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Click HERE to see Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the Moon.
Trivia: Several of the recordings captured by the astronauts during the mission are featured in this documentary. These recordings by Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Mike Collins earned them honorary memberships in the American Society of Cinematographers.

Sam Raimi’s “Army of Darkness: Evil Dead 3” is not as rooted in the horror genre as its predecessors – although it has its horrific elements, it seems to be first and foremost a dark fantasy comedy – with lots of one-liners and slapstick and gore. It’s kind of a delirious combination of horror, comedy, fantasy, action, and adventure, but it’s definitely the horror element that comes across in this 2017 alternative movie poster from Graham Humphreys. The medieval dead and undead never looked scarier and are out in full force as the hero from the previous two instalments – Ash (Bruce Campbell) cuts a worried looking figure. Originally rolled (as issued) the example offered here is truly exceptional; This limited edition it has been signed by Humphreys and hand-numbered #48/100 and displays and presents to excellent effect with amazing imagery and deep, rich colours. The horror ‘fan-boy’ love for Sam Raimi & Bruce Campbell is well deserved with related memorabilia much sought after, making this a hugely collectable piece.
Trivia: Released in Japan as “Captain Supermarket”.

“If you’re gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style ?”
Trivia: The inspiration for the film largely stems from Bob Gale discovering his father’s high school yearbook and wondering whether he would have been friends with his father as a teenager. Gale also said that if he had the chance to go back in time, he would really go back and see if they would have been friends.
