  • Darkman Movie Poster

    Darkman

    £125.00

    “They destroyed everything he had, everything he was. Now, crime has a new enemy and justice has a new face.”

    An original 1990 US one-sheet movie poster for Sam Raimi’s comic book inspired ant-hero “Darkman”. Raimi’s cult classic creation is one of those movies that has aged better with time than on its first release with a loyal and devoted fanbase. Lead actor, Liam Neeson (in his first starring role) plays the titular hero with real style and features prominently (albeit swathed in bandages) on the John Alvin designed US one-sheet offered here as he’s seen almost as a silhouette set against an explosive city backdrop. Totally unrestored, this rolled (as issued) example displays & presents to very good effect. A great looking piece of horror, comic book style artwork that represents a scarce piece of cinematic movie memorabilia.

    Mulholland Drive

    £175.00

    “A woman in search of stardom. A woman in search of herself – in the city of dreams. A key to a mystery – lies somewhere on Mulholland Drive.”

    Designed by the advertising agency Le Cercle Noir, this original 2001 UK quad poster for David Lynch’s mystery thriller “Mulholland Drive” (unlike the US campaign, that features a separate actress on each poster) features both Naomi Watts (Betty) and Laura Harring (Rita) with the ‘Hollywood’ landmark a fitting backdrop. With its simple, distinctive, imagery this rolled (as issued) example presents to superb effect, providing a high quality and very rare film poster from one of Cinema’s most revered cult directors.

    Trivia: David Lynch originally wrote the basic idea for the story in the 1990s, as a spin-off of Twin Peaks (1990). The character arc of Betty in the movie was written for Twin Peaks (1990) supporting character Audrey Horne, who would have been the central figure of the proposed spin-off.

  • The Usual Suspects Movie Poster

    Usual Suspects

    £125.00

    “Five Criminals…One Line Up…No Coincidence.”

    A classic movie poster from a classic 90’s crime thriller. A lovely rolled (as issued) Japanese B2 movie poster for Bryan Singer’s 1995 thought provoking mystery thriller “The Usual Suspects”. The clever imagery has the memorable line-up scene featuring the five ‘usual suspects’ – Kevin Pollak, Stephen Baldwin, Benicio Del Toro, Gabriel Byrne and Kevin Spacey. This Japanese poster design shows Kevin Spacey WITH a watch on. Many other posters from the U.S. and other countries had the watch removed as it gave clues to the film’s surprise ending. This example displays to excellent effect and represents a great looking item of original cinematic movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: Verbal Kint says, “The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he did not exist.” This quote from the French poet Charles Baudelaire also appears in End of Days (1999), also featuring Gabriel Byrne and Kevin Pollak.
