  Alien: Romulus

  £195.00

  “While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonists come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe.”

  One of cinemas all time classic movies is Ridley Scott’s Oscar winning deep space horror “Alien”. Spawning numerous cinematic and TV sequels, with Fede Alvarez’ 2024 offering “Alien: Romulus” a personal favourite. With “Alien” and “Aliens” two of the most licensed titles for private commission alternative movie posters it comes as no surprise that “Alien: Romulus” is starting to attract major attention from artists. This 2026  offering from Juan Carlos Ruiz Burgos is an incredible example using thirteen coloured inks that incorporates a glitter acid spot gloss varnish layer and is printed onto neenah pearl bright gold metallic paper – it really is spectacular. Printed in extremely limited numbers with this being #30 from a print run of 75. Hugely collectable and a must have poster for xenomorph fans, this example presents and displays to excellent effect that represents a fantastic piece of cinematic movie memorabilia art.

  Trivia: The events of the film take place in the year 2142, exactly 20 years after Alien (1979) (situated in 2122), and 37 years before Aliens (1986) (2179).

  Predator 2

  £325.00

  “Ten years ago one of his kind stalked and eliminated an elite special forces crew in central America. There were two survivors. They indicated that when trapped, the creature activated a self-destruct device that destroyed enough rainforest to cover 300 city blocks. Remarkable weaponry. That’s right lieutenant. Other-world life-forms.”

  The success of “Predator” when released in 1987 meant a sequel was always inevitable, however the action hero of the first movie wasn’t available – move over Arnie and welcome Danny Glover. Not only was there a new direction for the hero but the jungles of South America were swapped for a crime ridden Los Angeles. A clever follow up in many ways as it really does continue where the first movie finished as the Government, now fully aware of an other worldly being try to turn the tables and trap a predator – bad move. This 2021 Private Commission by Juan Carlos Ruiz Burgos features spectacular artwork, and is actually the first time a licensed print for “Predator 2” has been issued, and frankly it would be a hard to find a better one as Burgos really has created something special. Titled ‘The Concrete Jungle‘ it is printed on Cougar White paper using fifteen (15) coloured inks which includes a glitter varnish used to mimic the wet skin of the Predator and a bright luminous green glow in the dark ink for the title. Hand-numbered #45 from a print run 110 this beautiful example displays and presents to excellent effect and represents an incredible looking piece of modern cinematic memorabilia.

  Trivia: Keyes (Gary Busey) is the first character to ever use the word “predator” to refer to the creature on-screen when he says “we’ve prepared a trap for this predator”. The word “predators” is also used by Isabelle in Predators (2010), but she uses it to refer to the human characters in the film, not the Predator creatures. It wasn’t until The Predator (2018) that the creature itself is referred to as ‘predator’ again, with someone adding that the term ‘hunter’ would be more appropriate.
