  • KRULL Movie Poster

    KRULL

    £125.00

    Beyond our time, beyond our universe…there is a planet besieged by alien invaders, where a young king must rescue his love from the clutches of the Beast. Or risk the death of his world.

    Largely due to the “Star Wars” effect and the huge global popularity of the “Dungeons & Dragons” role playing game, the 1980’s truly was the decade of the mystical sword and sorcery fantasy. Filmed at Pinewood Studios, largely using the same staff and crew that had previously worked on James Bond and Star Wars, Peter Yates’ “KRULL” has stood the test of time well and is fondly remembered. Boasting some of the best fantasy art seen on a movie poster by Josh Kirby this original 1983 UK quad for “KRULL” certainly impresses. Scarce and hard to find in this high grade condition, this originally folded (as issued) example looks fantastic and presents in exceptional condition that represents a fine piece of hugely collectable original 80’s sci-fi fantasy movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: A hand that could physically transform into a “Changeling Claw” was developed for the movie, but due to time constraints could not be developed in time and was not used in the film. The piece later was completed for Tobe Hooper‘s movie Lifeforce (1985).

  • Masters of the Universe Movie Poster

    Masters of the Universe

    £495.00

    “A battle fought in the stars, now… comes to Earth.”

    A beautiful, Dolph Lungren autographed limited edition art print (hand-numbered #14/40) by artist Chris Barnes (also known as Brutal Posters) showing highly detailed depictions of the assortment of characters from Gary Goddard’s fantasy adventure “Masters of the Universe” (1987). The close-up image of Skeletor’s face in the top left corner is particularly striking, finished in soft shades of purple, which contrasts against the rest of the design. This alternative movie print from 2020 has been autographed by He-Man himself – Dolph Lungren, who also added his character name and the annotation I Have the Power.” The poster was signed in the USA at Galaxycon, Richmond on 24th-26th March and is accompanied by a full letter of authenticity. A fantastic item of hugely collectable pop-culture memorabilia.

    Trivia: Many viewers of the film commented on actress Meg Foster‘s eerily effective contact lenses which gave her character Evil-Lyn a sinister and unearthly air. Actually she wore no contact lenses. Her eyes naturally have blue/grey irises and tiny pupils, giving her a striking appearance. She has often been cast in sci-fi/fantasy roles because of them and jokes that she appeals to casting directors as she brings her own special effect with her for free.

  • Masters of the Universe Movie Poster

    Masters of the Universe

    £395.00

    “A battle fought in the stars, now… comes to Earth.”

    Twenty years before Transformers, Iron Man, Captain America and Thor came He-Man, Skeletor and the world of Eternia as the Mattel toys and cartoon series were magically transported to the big screen in Gary Goddard’s fantasy adventure “Masters of the Universe”. Boasting some of the finest fantasy art seen on a movie poster, this original 1987 UK quad by Jean Mascii, certainly impresses with He-Man himself (Dolph Lundgren) taking prominence as Skeletor (Frank Langella) is positioned menacingly over his shoulder. Presented in excellent original rolled (as issued) condition with strong vibrant colours it represents one of the best examples of collectable, cinematic movie memorabilia we have offered from the 1980s.

    Trivia: Meg Foster said that she based her character on Shakespeare’s Lady Macbeth. In the film’s beginning, she is a pantomime villainess but obviously deeply in love with Skeletor. As the storyline progresses, she gradually comes to realise that he does not truly care for her. In the end, she abandons him to his fate, her withdrawal of her forces leads to his eventual defeat. In Foster’s opinion, the character progresses from evildoer to scorned woman to tragic heroine

It enjoyed another peak in popularity when it was performed by one of the characters in the third season of Stranger Things (2016).

    £195.00

    “Travel back through time and space to the edge of man’s beginnings… discover a savage world whose only law was lust !

    “One Million Years B.C.” is the most iconic of all Hammer’s non-horror offerings with the original Tom Chantrell UK quad featuring the quintessential image of Raquel Welch at her peak, one of the most desirable movie posters for any collector. But the movie also featured ground breaking (and the best) dinosaur special effects seen on the big screen (at the time), created by the master of stop motion Ray Harryhausen. And it’s the dinosaurs that dominate the imagery on tis Japanese B2 for the 1985 re-release, with a T-Rex, Triceratops, Pterodactyl, Brontosaurus and Allosaurus all beautifully represented – for the non-dinosaur fans there is of course a great shot of Miss Welch wearing the obligatory fur-bikini. Totally original and unrestored this sought after example is presented in originally folded (as issued) condition and displays to excellent effect. It’s a very cool looking poster with a design unique to this Japanese release and incredibly collectable that represents a fine piece of cinematic movie memorabilia.

  • Prisoners-of-the-Lost-Universe

    Prisoners of the Lost Universe

    £95.00

    A classic case of the poster artwork being significantly more exciting than the film it was attempting to sell to the cinema-going public, this is the UK quad for the release of Terry Marcel’s low-budget sci-fi adventure Prisoners of the Lost Universe. The poster was designed and illustrated by the late, great British artist Tom Chantrell whose dynamic and colourful work featured on hundreds of posters over a forty year period. His official website features a great biography written by Sim Branaghan, author of the must-own book British Film Posters. Chantrell illustrated many classic poster designs, including several Hammer posters such as the brilliant quad for ‘One Million Years B.C.’, and was also responsible for the iconic Star Wars quad.  Very rare and hard to find this originally rolled (as issued) example from 1983 displays very well with minimal age and handling wear. It looks fantastic and presents very well and represents a fantastic piece of very collectable Tom Chantrell poster artwork and  a fine piece of original film memorabilia.

  • Slave Girls Movie Poster

    Slave Girls

    £125.00

    “Behold a savage world where men are slaves to desire…and women are their demanding masters !”

    One of the most fun of all the famous (and infamous) Hammer productions and that’s not just because of the scantily clad prehistoric cave girls (with many on display here) but also a bright day-glo pink poster by Tom Chantrell for the 1967 release of Michael Carreras’ “Slave Girls”. Chantrell’s poster for the British marketing campaign was accompanied by an impressive front of house lobby card set of eight. The complete set (of eight cards) as offered here, contains some memorable imagery, in particular a great, shot of Martine Beswick, perfectly cast as the evil Queen Kari as she lounges on a bed animal skins. Extremely scarce as a complete set, these country of origin examples from first year of release 1967 are presented in totally original and unrestored, high grade condition. A Hammer movie that is a real personal favourite with me, with paper from it incredibly collectable.

    Trivia: Shot in only four weeks using sets and costumes from One Million Years B.C. (1966), in order to offset the earlier film’s cost of £140,000 pounds.
