  • Apocalypse Now Alternative Movie Poster

    Apocalypse Now

    £795.00

    “You don’t talk to Colonel Kurtz…You listen to him.”

    A personal favourite and quite simply a stunning alternative movie poster for Francis Ford Coppola’s multi award winning Vietnam war epic “Apocalypse Now” by Jock. Like something out of a widescreen images handbook, the grandiose and all-consuming art within this limited edition giclee art print for Apocalypse Now is as visually masterful as the film it depicts. Truly an impressive piece; the range of red colour tones for the sky is incredible (the photo does not do it justice). This print is both Hand-Signed and Hand-Numbered #110/150 in the bottom right corner in pencil. Originally rolled (as issued) with an amazing colour palette this outstanding example presents and displays to excellent effect and represents a beautiful alternative movie poster from one of the best artist’s currently working and the finest film’s ever made. When launched in 2015 this was a sold out, fully subscribed private commission and is rarely offered for sale on the secondary market. “Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that”

    Trivia: Filming, originally scheduled for six weeks, took 16 months.

    What is Giclee ?

    Derived from the French term gicler – meaning ‘to squirt or spray’, the term describes a printing process whereby microscopic dots of pigment-based ink are sprayed onto archival-quality paper to ensure the fidelity of a limited edition print to an original artwork.

    The richness, accuracy and depth of colour is thanks to the method’s potential to achieve a huge colour gamut (the spectrum of colours distinguishable by the human eye). Unlike the four tones used in lithography, giclées often use five: light cyan, cyan, light magenta, yellow and black.

    Fantastic for reproductions which require maximum detail, giclées are most commonly found on watercolour paper or canvas, but can also be created on glass. Different types of paper will produce different effects. Matte paper works well behind glass due its lack of reflectivity, whilst the shine of a glossy finish can give an artwork a brighter appearance.

  • 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”.

  • Baby Driver Movie Poster

    Baby Driver

    £135.00

    “Hey Baby, you know it’s funny. Even though I heard it so many times in the court case, I still can’t get used to the fact that your real name is Miles. It’s a cool name though. I can think of a lot of great Miles songs. But we still have to get through all those Baby songs first. I can’t wait until the day when it’s just us, music and the road. See you later Baby. All my love, Debora.”

    Although a relatively recent release any paper for Edgar Wright’s 2017 car-themed action caper “Baby Driver” is highly desirable. Not only because it is such a stylish and cool heist movie but because of an award winning movie poster created by BLT Communications with  artwork by one of the most highly regarded artists working today, Rory Kurtz. Although a huge success with audiences and critics alike the movie is considered somewhat ‘art-house’ and had a very limited cinema release resulting in the scarcity of the posters used in the marketing campaign. Originally rolled (as issued) this US/International one-sheet movie poster looks and displays to excellent effect with minimal handling wear with imagery perfectly suited to the portrait style format; the subtle use of colours are particularly memorable. A scarce, ‘modern’ original collectable movie memorabilia from a truly talented director that looks very very cool !

    Trivia: In an introduction from Edgar Wright, he revealed that there was little to no CGI or green screen used to film the car chase sequences. The driving is real and all practically done.
