This 2011 hand-numbered (#31/380) and signed by the artist – Olly Moss alternative movie poster is a very clever design as the werewolf’s head is incorporated into a silhouette map of the British Isles.

  • Army of Darkness: Evil Dead 3 Alternative Movie Poster

    Army of Darkness: Evil Dead 3

    £425.00

    “Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas”

    Sam Raimi’s “Army of Darkness: Evil Dead 3” is not as rooted in the horror genre as its predecessors – although it has its horrific elements, it seems to be first and foremost a dark fantasy comedy – with lots of one-liners and slapstick and gore. It’s kind of a delirious combination of horror, comedy, fantasy, action, and adventure, but it’s definitely the horror element that comes across in this 2017 alternative movie poster from Graham Humphreys. The medieval dead and undead never looked scarier and are out in full force as the hero from the previous two instalments – Ash (Bruce Campbell) cuts a worried looking figure. Originally rolled (as issued) the example offered here is truly exceptional; This limited edition it has been signed by Humphreys and hand-numbered #48/100 and displays and presents to excellent effect with amazing imagery and deep, rich colours. The horror ‘fan-boy’ love for Sam Raimi & Bruce Campbell is well deserved with related memorabilia much sought after, making this a hugely collectable piece.

    Trivia: Released in Japan as “Captain Supermarket”.

  • Barbarella Alternative Movie Poster

    Barbarella

    £195.00

    “Who seduces an angel? Who strips in space? Who conveys love by hand? Who gives up the pill? Who takes sex to outer space? Who’s the girl of the 21st century? Who nearly dies of pleasure?”

    In arguably the most famous role of her career, Jane Fonda stars as “Barbarella” in Roger Vadim’s, campy, sci-fi fantasy. Based on the hugely popular French comic strip by Jean-Claude Forest the film is considered one of the 1960s quintessential cult movies. And it’s the titular Barbarella, who is featured in close up clutching a ray gun, in a very pop art looking alternative movie poster design by Tim Jordan (Blunt Graffix). Created in 2013, exclusively for the Weapon of Choice II convention with a very limited print run of only twenty (20) – this is hand-numbered #2 and also signed by the artist. Originally rolled (as issued) this beautiful example displays to excellent effect with vibrant, unfaded colours that pop from the paper and a stylish design. It would make for a fantastic addition to any collection or as a one-off display piece that represents a highly collectable piece of cinematic and artistic memorabilia for a much admired cult, sci-fi classic.

    Trivia: Barbarella was the first science fiction hero from comics to be adapted into a feature film, as opposed to a serial. Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, her male predecessors, had only appeared in serials.

  • Batman Alternative Movie Poster

    Batman

    £225.00

    “Now comes the part where I relieve you, the little people, of the burden of your failed and useless lives. But, as my plastic surgeon always said: if you gotta go, go with a smile.”

    Tim Burton was the perfect choice at the time to re-invent this major screen character & for me this is the definitive Batman movie. Posters for Burton’s “Batman” have always been hugely collectable since it was released in 1989 with the original marketing campaign basically just using the Batman logo. This has left a huge scope for artists since, to re-imagine and re-interpret their own unique take on the movie and character – making it perfect content for the alternative movie poster market. Batman (in all of his guises) is one of the most popular subjects for commissions – admittedly some better than others. Offered here is one of the better examples as Alberto Reyes presents his variant edition. Known as the Joker style or the Jokerized version it sees Jack Nicholson’s Joker in a clever spin from one of the key scenes from the film. Enigmatic and stylish, hand-numbered (#69/89) and signed by the artist, Alberto Reyes is truly impressive. Originally rolled (as issued) this displays to excellent effect and represents a superb Joker image from one of the defining Batman films.

    Trivia: Jack Nicholson said of his role, “The thing I like about the Joker is that his sense of humor is completely tasteless.” He later said The Joker was one of his favorite roles he played.

    Bruce Wayne – Y’see, my life is really… complex.”

    Tim Burton was the perfect choice at the time to re-invent this major screen character & for me this is the definitive Batman movie.

Batman (in all of his guises) is one of the most popular subjects for commissions – admittedly some better than others. Offered here is one of the better examples as Alberto Reyes presents his Batman, fully costumed (it’s nice to see an artist present a screen accurate costume for a change) in the Batcave. Enigmatic and stylish, hand-numbered (#69/89) and signed by the artist, Alberto Reyes is truly impressive. Originally rolled (as issued) this displays to excellent effect and represents a memorable image from one of the defining Batman films.

    Trivia: Michael Keaton, who calls himself a “logic freak”, was concerned that Batman’s secret identity would, in reality, be fairly easy to uncover, and discussed ideas with Tim Burton to better disguise the character, including the use of contact lenses. Ultimately, Keaton decided to perform Batman’s voice at a lower register than when he was portraying Bruce Wayne. This technique became a staple of future portrayals of Batman in film, television, and video games, especially those of Kevin Conroy and Christian Bale.

    Batman Forever

    £175.00

    “Riddle me this, riddle me that, who’s afraid of the big, black bat?

    Riddle me this – how can you get the most colourful Batmobile yet in your living room? Simple, purchase this incredible, hand-numbered (#96/275) screen print from Matt Ferguson for Joel Schumacher’s 1995 comic book caper “Batman Forever”. Ferguson’s ongoing Batman and Batmobile series continues, and this time, he’s got Seal’s Kiss from a Rose blaring out of the Bat-stereo. “Batman Forever” is a visually spectacular movie combining a colourful cast, and a bonkers plot that while divisive, is undoubtedly wildly entertaining and whilst Jim Carrey is no Jack Nicholson, his Riddler steals the show from one-time BatmanVal KIlmer. Ferguson’s Batmobile series focuses on Bruce Wayne’s incredible rides from throughout Batman’s history, and he’s added a ton of fun details and Easter eggs from both the film and general Ferguson lore. Originally rolled (as issued) this displays to excellent effect with the day glo, neon coloured inks adding a real kinetic energy to the imagery and represents a truly eye-catching alternative movie poster from one of the most memorable Batman movies.
