  • Predator Alternative Movie Poster

    Predator

    £225.00

    “It came for the thrill of the hunt…It picked the wrong man to hunt”

    One of the best films of the 1980’s and certainly one of Schwarzenegger’s finest roles, Predator is a film I’ve seen more times than I care to remember. Directed by John McTiernan, who would go on to helm “Die Hard” the following year (arguably the greatest action movie ever made), the film is an excellent mix of gung-ho action and sci-fi horror with a truly iconic monster (designed by Stan Winston). The rare alternative movie poster offered here is from the 2025 release and was created as a private commission piece by the talented Thai artist, Wiwat. With a very limited print run of only 40 this has been hand-numbered #32. Showcasing a unique and visually striking design and produced using the screen print technique, the imagery captures the essence of the Predator in a bold and dynamic style. Perfect for fans of the franchise or collectors of art inspired by the Predator. Originally rolled (as issued) this beautiful example displays and presents to excellent effect and represents a fine piece of collectable cinematic movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: The Predator costume weighed over two hundred pounds, and even though 7’2″ Kevin Peter Hall was a large and powerful man, he had to be connected to a “bungie” rig, to enable him to move more believably.

  • Predator 2 Alternative Movie Poster

    Predator 2

    £325.00

    “Ten years ago one of his kind stalked and eliminated an elite special forces crew in central America. There were two survivors. They indicated that when trapped, the creature activated a self-destruct device that destroyed enough rainforest to cover 300 city blocks. Remarkable weaponry. That’s right lieutenant. Other-world life-forms.”

    The success of “Predator” when released in 1987 meant a sequel was always inevitable, however the action hero of the first movie wasn’t available – move over Arnie and welcome Danny Glover. Not only was there a new direction for the hero but the jungles of South America were swapped for a crime ridden Los Angeles. A clever follow up in many ways as it really does continue where the first movie finished as the Government, now fully aware of an other worldly being try to turn the tables and trap a predator – bad move. This 2021 Private Commission by Juan Carlos Ruiz Burgos features spectacular artwork, and is actually the first time a licensed print for “Predator 2” has been issued, and frankly it would be a hard to find a better one as Burgos really has created something special. Titled ‘The Concrete Jungle‘ it is printed on Cougar White paper using fifteen (15) coloured inks which includes a glitter varnish used to mimic the wet skin of the Predator and a bright luminous green glow in the dark ink for the title. Hand-numbered #45 from a print run 110 this beautiful example displays and presents to excellent effect and represents an incredible looking piece of modern cinematic memorabilia.

    Trivia: Keyes (Gary Busey) is the first character to ever use the word “predator” to refer to the creature on-screen when he says “we’ve prepared a trap for this predator”. The word “predators” is also used by Isabelle in Predators (2010), but she uses it to refer to the human characters in the film, not the Predator creatures. It wasn’t until The Predator (2018) that the creature itself is referred to as ‘predator’ again, with someone adding that the term ‘hunter’ would be more appropriate.

  • Quatermass and the Pit Movie Poster

    Quatermass and the Pit

    £2,250.00

    “A Force more powerful than 1,000 H-Bombs unleashed to devastate earth ! World in panic ! Cities in flames !”

    A beautiful and incredibly rare country of origin UK quad film poster and one of Hammer’s best for Roy Ward Baker’s 1967 supernatural alien invasion thriller “Quatermass and the Pit”. Tom Chantrell’s magnificent detailed artwork; heaving bosoms, London aflame in ruins, glittering spaceships, martian devils is stunning…A personal favourite and featured in Marcus Hearn’s excellent book “The Art of Hammer”.

    Trivia: When Dr. Quatermass is picking at the eyeball of the dead Martian creature in his laboratory, the pupils of the compound eye are a rectangular slot shape rather then round like a human eye. This is reminiscent of a goat’s eye, a creature that, for centuries, has been associated with witchcraft and sorcery.

  • The Quatermass Xperiment Movie Poster

    The Quatermass Xperiment

    £195.00

    “It’s coming for YOU from Space to wipe all living things from the face of the Earth! CAN IT BE STOPPED?”

    Blending horror and science fiction in the way that only Hammer can, “The Quatermass Xperiment” delivers a haunting vision of the terrifying consequences of unchecked exploration. In this tense, suspenseful tale of scientific ambition gone awry, a space expedition takes a nightmarish turn when an astronaut crash-lands on Earth—only to begin mutating into something horrifyingly inhuman. As his transformation accelerates, his struggle to contain violent urges proves increasingly futile. Scientists and authorities race to understand the catastrophe unfolding before them, in a desperate attempt to prevent a monstrous disaster. Created by the legendary Nigel Kneale and directed by the great Val Guest, “The Quatermass Xperiment”  is available for the first time ever in 4K UHD and the  poster offered here is from the 4K release in 2024. Released by Hammer for a very limited cinematic run that coincided with the newly remastered Blu Ray, this extremely rare UK quad is from the cinema release and not one of the 10 offered as an incentive on Hammer’s website. It really is an incredible poster with some outstanding horror artwork by Graham Humphreys. It presents to excellent effect and is a must have Hammer Horror collectable.

    Trivia: The decision to drop the “e” from the title The Quatermass Xperiment was a deliberate and strategic choice by Hammer Films. When the film was released in 1955, the British Board of Film Censors had recently introduced the ‘X’ certificate, restricting admission to those aged 16 and over. Hammer sought to highlight the film’s mature themes and unsettling content by integrating the letter ‘X’ directly into the title. This subtle yet effective alteration served not only as a marketing tool but also as a signal to audiences that this was a bold and provocative work—one that pushed the boundaries of what was typically shown in British science fiction cinema at the time.

  • They Live Movie Poster

    They Live

    £225.00

    “You see them on the street. You watch them on TV. You might even vote for one. You think they’re people just like you. You’re wrong. Dead wrong.”

    John Carpenter’s tale of alien occupation “They Live” is part horror, part sci-fi and part social satire, all viewed through dark sun-glasses of Nada played by ex-professional wrestler Roddy Piper. Considered one of Carpenter’s best it was one of four seminal movies by the director re-released by Studio Canal in 2018, remastered in 4K, with the others being “Escape From New York”, “Prince of Darkness” and “The Fog”. All four movies had a strictly limited cinematic release and were accompanied a newly designed poster campaign (quads and one-sheets) by leading artist Matt Ferguson. Ferguson’s unique artistic style is evident throughout the four, each with its very own unique colour palette. A number of these full-size 30″ x 40″ UK quad styles were also released as a limited edition art print by Vice Press. Identical to the cinematic quad, in fact exactly the same – same paper, printer etc these were issued as timed releases each signed and hand-numbered by Matt Ferguson. Offered here is one of these signed art prints numbered #48 from a print run of only 216. Originally rolled (as issued) it presents in excellent condition. A cool, cult poster that represents very collectable & desirable original film memorabilia from one of the greatest and most influential director’s who is still actively working in the film industry.

    Trivia: Artist Shepard Fairey credits the film as a major source of inspiration, sharing a similar logo to his “OBEY” campaign. “They Live was…the basis for my use of the word ‘obey’,” Fairey said. “The movie has a very strong message about the power of commercialism and the way that people are manipulated by advertising.”
