  Frankenhooker

  £395.00

  “A Terrifying Tale Of Sluts And Bolts.”

  An absolutely stunning Japanese B2 film poster for one of the greatest cult horror movies ever made…Frank Henenlotter‘s “Frankenhooker”. Featuring incredible country unique artwork, this really is one of the best examples created for this cult horror-comedy title. Any paper for this title is extremely sought after and also ultra scarce, with this being the first time we have ever offered something for sale – and we are delighted that it is this Japanese B2, which has always been a personal favourite of mine. The finish is superb with neon, pink, green and blues popping from the paper (this day-glo effect is further enhanced by the high gloss finish – this does make it hard to photograph) Originally rolled (as issued) this displays to excellent effect and represents scarce cinematic movie memorabilia for a film that has become one of the most desirable titles of the genre…“She’s hot. She’s sexy. And she’s sutured to please.”

  Trivia: Elizabeth has the last name of Shelley. This is an homage to Mary Shelley, the author of the original “Frankenstein”.

  Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels

  £295.00

  “A Disgrace to Criminals Everywhere.”

  Original 1998 UK Quad film poster for Guy Ritchie’s breakthrough movie…“Lock Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels”…A very limited initial UK release means these Yellow1 designed posters are in extremely scarce…Any original memorabilia from the movie has become extremely sought after as this breakthrough film has gone on to become of the most influential British films of recent years, launching the careers of its stars and director. Presented here in excellent original rolled (as issued) condition this high grade example is a beauty…“All right, son: roll them guns up, count the money, and put your seat belt on.”

  Trivia: The film was having trouble finding an American distributor when Trudie Styler called an acquaintance of hers – Tom Cruise. He attended a screening and loved the film. Matthew Vaughn later recalled, “It was hysterical. You had all these mid-level executives sitting there, and Cruise walked in. He saw them all sit up and pay attention, all getting on their phones, and suddenly all these senior executives joined the screening … At the end, Tom got up in front of everyone and said ‘This is the best movie I’ve seen in years, you guys would be fools not to buy it.’…”

  Stitches

  £95.00

  “You’ll Die Laughing !”

  A striking movie poster that’s a well fitting design for this dark comedic horror “Stitches”. Designed by creative arts agency OC this British UK quad from 2012 is a great looking poster focuses on Ross Noble in full clown make-up as the dis-figured titular serial killer ‘Stitches’. A very creepy and eye-catching image. Although designed to look like a battered and distressed, it is printed on a heavier stock paper (which enhances and gives the muted colours a real depth) it actually presents near perfectly being originally rolled (as issued) and is genuinely scarce with very limited showings in a small number of ‘art-house’ & ‘specialist’ cinemas. A memorable piece of ‘modern’ horror film memorabilia that is hugely collectable encompassing not just movie fans but also the horror art marketplace and fans of the comedian Ross Noble.

  Trivia: The medication that Tommy takes to relieve anxiety is called “Hypnocil”, the same name as the medication used to suppress dreams in the Nightmare on Elm Street series.
