“There is nothing in the dark that isn’t there in the light. Except fear”
An original 1991 US/International one-sheet film poster for Martin Scorsese’s suspenseful horror, thriller “Cape Fear”. Designed by Tom Martin and John Alvin, this is an incredible looking poster – the menace in De Niro’s stare is truly unsettling. Offered rolled (as issued) it presents to excellent effect with amazing dark colour tones, enhanced with blue touches giving not just the effect of water but also a lightening strike (so integral to the film’s finale). The water effect is further highlighted by the wave effect in the lower half of the poster – this is part of the printing with the poster itself presenting perfectly flat. An impressive and desirable film poster that represents a fantastic piece of modern horror cinematic memorabilia appealing to movie poster collectors and fans of Scorsese and De Niro.
Trivia: Gregory Peck, who starred in Cape Fear (1962), appears as Cady’s lawyer. Robert Mitchum played Max Cady in the 1962 version, and appears as Lieutenant Elgart. Martin Balsam played Mark Dutton in the 1962 version, and the judge in this version.

Much like Daniel Craig, the role of re-invigorating the Bond movie franchise fell on to the shoulders of Pierce Brosnan in 1995 and after a six year break James Bond was back in “Goldeneye”. Re-imagined & re-invented (again by Martin Campbell) in the form of Pierce Brosnan…Brosnan, ably succeeded in what was a critical & commercial success & went on to play Ian Fleming’s ‘Licensed to Kill’ secret agent another four times. The original 1995 US One Sheet movie poster offered here was designed by Randi Braun & featured the photographic talents of Terry O’Neil, Keith Hamshere & George Whitear. This is the much rarer “gold” style and presents in excellent rolled (as issued) unrestored condition. Hugely collectable it represents a fantastic piece of original 007 cinematic movie memorabilia.
Trivia: First completely original James Bond movie, without reference to any Ian Fleming novel or short story.

1987 was the end of a historic movie tradition as Brian Bysouth produced the last artist drawn painted James Bond film poster (Fascinating Brian Bysouth interview with Eddie Shannon of Film on Paper) for Timothy Dalton’s 007 debut as “The most dangerous Bond…Ever” in “The Living Daylights”. It’s a hard act to follow but artist Mark Murphy certainly comes very, very close with this stunning alternative movie poster from 2023. The action-packed artwork features all the classic imagery you’d expect to see in a Bond film, 007 dressed in a tuxedo, exotic location, gadgets, a beautiful, glamorous woman – Maryam D’Arbo and a life threatening scenario. The colours are truly amazing, super strong and vibrant. This limited edition fine art print represents an impressive piece of very collectable James Bond movie memorabilia that would be a worthy addition to any collection of cinematic movie memorabilia.
Trivia: This was the last James Bond film to use an original Ian Fleming title until Casino Royale (2006), a gap of almost twenty years.
