  • Star Trek The Motion Picture Alternative Movie Poster

    Star Trek: The Motion Picture

    £225.00

    “Mr. Scott, an alien object of unbelievable destructive power is less than two days away from this planet. The only starship in interception range is the Enterprise. Ready or not, she launches in twelve hours.”

    Printed on Mirri Rainbow Foil art paper, Matt Ferguson’s artwork for this Vice Press 2023 release for “Star Trek: The Motion Picture” is truly impressive. Literally changing colour depending on the light and viewing angle with imagery depicting key scenes from the movie and of course, center-stage the iconic USS Enterprise. The Japanese typeface adds an air of the exotic and adds to the overall appeal in what is a fitting visual tribute for the first big screen cinematic outing for Captain Kirk & the crew of the starship Enterprise. Released as a limited edition of 175 this has been hand-numbered #28 that displays superbly and represents a fine piece of artwork and a very collectable alternative poster movie from Gene Roddenberry’s much loved TV and Movie series.

    Trivia: William Shatner, (Captain Kirk) who saw the completed movie for the first time at the world premiere, was struck by the overall sluggishness of the movie, and was convinced that the Star Trek franchise died there and then. He reminisced, “Well, that’s it. We gave it our best shot, it wasn’t good, and it will never happen again.” But, having recalled his reaction fifteen years later, he has added, “Shows you what I know.”

  • Westworld-Movie-Poster

    Westworld

    £295.00

    “Boy, have we got a vacation for you…Westworld…Where nothing can possibly go wrong !”

    Acclaimed comic book and fantasy artist Neal Adams produced a superb ‘Terminator’ image of Yul Brynner (a good 10 years before James Cameron’s cult classic movie would be released) for this original 1973 original UK quad movie poster for “Westworld”. Known as the ‘Monitors’ style it is extremely coveted by collectors of the genre and fans of the artist. Written & Directed by Michael Crichton this “robots gone mad” science fiction horror film was one of the most memorable key titles of the 70’s retaining a huge fanbase to this day. Totally original & unrestored this originally folded (as issued) UK quad film poster is from first year of release, 1973. It displays & presents to excellent effect with beautiful bright white background and vibrant unfaded colours, with the orange of the title particularly vivid. Scarce and very very collectable, this original UK quad film poster would make a fine addition to any movie memorabilia collection or a great starting point for someone new to the market.

    Trivia: Director John Carpenter based the “indestructable” nature of his killer Michael Myers in Halloween (1978) on Yul Brynner‘s character in this film. Similarly, Arnold Schwarzenegger used Brynner’s performance as the basis of his performance in The Terminator (1984).
