An outstanding alternative movie poster by the maestro of British horror art, Graham Humphreys for John Carpenter’s horror, sci-fi classic “The Thing”. This superb limited edition example is incredibly rare in any edition and to offer an Artist Proof example (this is hand-numbered #10/10) is indeed a bonus. Antarctic Alien terror never looked better than this, thanks to Humphreys’ stunning imagery, MacReady (Kurt Russell) and the Thing illustrations are perfectly realised, with beautiful colour tones. Released in 2023 as an exclusive Private Commission, this immediately sold out when launched. Originally rolled, flat-unfolded (as issued) the example offered displays to exceptional effect and represents a truly outstanding and extremely desirable item of collectable movie memorabilia with a ‘modern’ twist…“Did you notice anything strange about the dog that arrived yesterday? Anything at all?”
Trivia: Unused music composed for this film was later used by Ennio Morricone in Quentin Tarantino‘s The Hateful Eight (2015). Ironically, Morricone’s Thing score was nominated for a Razzie for worst score, while his score for Hateful Eight won him an Oscar.

This impressive ve alternative movie poster for John Carpenter’s sci-fi horror classic “The Thing” was created by Australian artist Florey and printed in 2021.
Florey’s striking artwork perfectly captures the isolation and paranoia of Carpenter’s film, with the frozen Antarctic landscape dominated by a fiery representation of the shape-shifting alien creature. MacReady is depicted walking towards us beneath the mass of flames, while the solitary figure silhouetted in the doorway adds to the sense of menace and uncertainty that runs throughout the film.
Released in 1982 and starring Kurt Russell as R.J. MacReady, “The Thing” was not a success on its original release but has since undergone a remarkable reassessment and is now regarded as one of the finest science-fiction horror films ever made. Rob Bottin’s extraordinary practical creature effects, Ennio Morricone’s atmospheric score and Carpenter’s masterful direction have helped the film become a genuine cult classic.
Printed in 2021, this alternative movie poster uses glow in the dark inks and comes from a limited edition of just 100 copies worldwide with this particular example hand-numbered 4/100.
