“Cruise like Thunder”
An eye-catching dayglo colour-palette dominates this original UK Quad movie poster for Tom Cruise’s 1990 blockbuster “Days of Thunder”. Cruise could do no wrong at the box office during this period and it’s no surprise he is featured so heavily on the global marketing campaign for the movie. With a hi-gloss finish to top things off this is a really impressive looking film poster. Originally rolled (as issued) this displays very well and represents a hugely collectable and totally cool piece of movie memorabilia for one of popular cinema’s most loved stars. Top Gun with cars !
Trivia: At Daytona for the final race of the movie “Gentlemen Start Your Engines” is the voice of Burt Reynolds

“In his mind, he has the power to see the future. In his hands, he has the power to change it.”
Original UK Quad film poster for DavidCronberg’s 1983 sci-fi, horror, thriller “The Dead Zone”. Stephen King’s bestseller (his first to hit #1 and still one his most successful) is stylishly brought to the cinema screen by Cronenberg. Renowned for the more gory, body horror approach to film making, this is very much a clever and restrained adaption – and in my opinion is far better for it. Taking inspiration from one of the key scenes in the movie, British advertising agency FEREF have created an eye-catching design for the UK marketing campaign poster (imagery that is actually unique to the UK). Folded (as issued) this stunning example displays to excellent effect (probably unused). It represents a very high quality piece of Cinema memorabilia from a truly groundbreaking, influential film maker and the most successful American writer in history.
Trivia: This movie doesn’t explain the meaning of the phrase Dead Zone like the book does. Stephen King was going off old theories that people only use 10% of their brains, and that we haven’t even unlocked the secrets of the other 90%; and that when Johnny was in his coma his brain had to create new pathways to get around the paralyzed part of his mind. So new pathways were created in the Dead Zone, that 90% that people normally don’t use; and this enabled him to develop powers of ESP and second sight.

It is right above Jungle Julia,slightly to the right of the AMi Jukebox.

“In The Year 2000 Hit And Run Driving Is No Longer A Felony. It’s The National Sport!”
“Death Race 2000” parodies so many things it’s hard to know where to begin. America-centrism (the government blame the French for everything), professional sports, pro wrestling (the drivers are badly acted “theme” types), Big Brother, and just about everything else you could name. At the same time it panders to the blood lust of the audience with camp cartoon violence. David Carradine as ‘Frankenstein’ in full on anti-hero mode gives a solid performance and Sylvester Stallone is hilarious as a driver with the mannerisms of a 30’s gangster, practicing on his accent for the Rocky movies. The artwork to promote the movie in the UK was the work of Tom William Chantrell’s artwork, and (in my honest opinion) one of his best. A true personal favourite with striking futuristic imagery, that was exclusively used for the British cinematic release. This beautiful, first year of release, 1975 UK quad film poster for Roger Corman’s cult offering is offered rolled (as issued) with vibrant, strong colours set against a bright white background and minimal handling wear. In this high grade condition it represents an extremely desirable and rare movie poster from a genre and decade that is fast becoming increasingly sought after. A very COOL poster from the 1970s.
Trivia: Explaining why he took the role of Frankenstein in this film, David Carradine said “I started that picture two weeks after I walked off the Kung Fu (1972) set, and that was essentially my image, the “Kung Fu” character, and a lot of people still believe I’m that guy. The idea actually was: No. 1, if you walk off a television series, you better do a movie right away or you might never get to do one. And the second thing was to do something right away that would create the image of a monster to get rid of the image of that little Chinese guy that I’d been playing for four years. And, you know, it did kick-start my movie career.”

“First dance..First love..The time of your life.”
An original 2007 British UK quad film poster for the quintessential classic romance “Dirty Dancing”. This beautiful originally rolled example is pretty much faultless. A classic 80s poster featuring one of the decade’s most memorable and enduring images hat has been updated for the 20th Anniversary screenings., as Baby (Jennifer Grey) and Johnny (Patrick Swayze) prepare for their iconic dance routine. This Anniversary release received a very limited cinematic run, playing in only a handful of cinemas, making these posters particularly scarce. Often seen as one the THE defining and most loved movies of the 1980s it represents a fantastic piece of original movie memorabilia.
Trivia: In an interview with AFI, Swayze explained why he thought Dirty Dancing endured for so long. “It’s got so much heart, to me,” he said. “It’s not about the sensuality; it’s really about people trying to find themselves, this young dance instructor feeling like he’s nothing but a product, and this young girl trying to find out who she is in a society of restrictions when she has such an amazing take on things.”

The original UK quad film poster for “Dirty Harry” offered here is an extremely rare example from later 1971 with ‘red-style’ artwork that was only seen in the smaller independently owned cinemas in the UK provinces. This stunning original UK quad movie poster is based upon Bill Gold’s initial designs from the first release in early 1971 which had a bright white background; I personally think the RED is more appropriate and striking. Originally folded (as issued) this unrestored, totally original piece presents to excellent effect; the deep red background is truly vibrant with the other bold colours, deep & unfaded. Certainly the best example of this key poster I have ever seen, let alone have the pleasure to sell. Almost flawless in every way with only the very minimal handling and age wear…Clint Eastwood carved out a violent niche in the cinema with his portrayal of ‘Dirty Harry Callahan’ in this, the first in the popular series about a San Francisco detective who makes his own rules and this extremely scarce UK quad movie poster represents a fine piece of very collectable and desirable cinematic film memorabilia.
Trivia: (At around ten minutes) In the bank robbery scene (At around ten minutes into the movie), Harry enters a burger joint across the street from the bank. Around the corner from the burger joint, the viewer can see a movie theatre marquee that lists Play Misty for Me (1971). Clint Eastwood starred in and directed that movie, which was the first theatrical movie directed by Eastwood.

Although a relatively recent release any paper for Olivia Wilde’s “Don’t Worry Darling” is extremely scarce. Her much talked retro drama thriller is complemented by an amazing series of cinematic posters designed by the creative marketing agency Bulldog, with this ‘Welcome to Victory’ advance style my personal favourite; very stylish, clever imagery. Although accompanied by an extensive marketing campaign (largely due to the stars involved) the movie is considered “art-house” or “independent” and had a very limited cinema release resulting in the scarcity of the posters. Originally rolled (as issued) this UK quad looks and displays to excellent effect with minimal handling wear; the colours really have depth and tone. A rare, modern collectable item of movie memorabilia from a truly talented director that looks to be gaining that cult status.
Trivia: There are many clear references to Alice in Wonderland; the main character’s name being Alice, the fantasy world which she unwittingly enters into, the prominence of windows/mirrors (Through the Looking Glass), and lastly her neighbour Bunny may be a subtle reference to the iconic White Rabbit.

Much like Ridley Scott’s “Blade Runner” released two years earlier, David Lynch’s “Dune” (1984) received lack-lustre reviews and a poor box-office return on its initial release. Jump forward to today and “Dune” is now regarded as a genre defining masterpiece with a loyal and devoted fanbase. The poor box-office resulted in any associated cinema advertising material being junked and disposed of, making any paper highly desirable and collectable appealing not only to film fans but fans of the bestselling Frank Herbert novels. This original British UK quad film poster from 1984 features the beautiful and distinctive ‘two moons’ artwork. Originally rolled, as issued to the cinema this superb example displays to excellent effect being presented in totally unrestored high grade condition that represents a fantastic piece of scarce original sci-fi movie memorabilia for an incredible looking movie.
A beautiful film festival poster from the 1990’s featuring six of the wackiest, poorly made and most bizarre films ever made…“The Bride of the Beast / Night of the Ghouls / Plan 9 From Outer Space / Glen or Glenda / Jail Bait / Bride of the Monster” Each equally ‘bad’ in one way or another yet all had one thing in common, they were by one man; legendary ‘B’ movie making maestro Edward D. Wood Jr. Wood despite a poor reception (and that’s being kind) for his films when originally released during the 50’s & 60’s has gone on to achieve cult status amongst movie fans with paper from any of his films highly sought after and much prized. This collectability has extended to the film festival posters which celebrated his much loved ‘masterpieces’. The original UK quad example offered here is for “Ed Wood Presents The Worst Movies Ever Made” a British festival from the 1990’s and is one of the best looking posters available, featuring classic scenes from six of his movies with images that appear to have hand finished colour touches. A very cool looking, great designed colourful poster that is extremely scarce. Originally rolled (as issued) this near faultless example is a fantastic find and represents a fine and incredibly rare example very collectable original movie memorabilia for one of Hollywood’s greatest character’s.
Trivia: The budget of Tim Burton’s biopic Ed Wood (1994) was “more than one hundred times greater than every Ed Wood budget combined”
