“The Trick Was To Stay Alive”
John Carpenter’s masterpiece of modern horror “Halloween” was the first and by far the best of this enduring film franchise which acted as the definitive slasher flick. The artwork for any of the film poster produced are all extremely collectable and strikingly individual in design; from the ‘Jack O’Lantern’ US one sheet to the UK quad film poster featuring a screaming Jamie Lee Curtis as Michael Myers’ hand appears at the car window; all seen through an icy blue haze. Offered here is one of the best of the more modern alternative movie poster designs by the artist Rich Davies that has been signed by Michael Myers himself – NICK CASTLE with character name of The Shape (as he was credited at the time of release) in a blue pen to match the colours in the imagery. Davies’ stunning imagery and use of dark blue colour tones makes for a truly eye-catching piece. Released in 2018 for the 40th anniversary as a limited edition giclee print of 250, this originally rolled, flat-unfolded (as issued) example displays to exceptional effect and represents a truly outstanding and extremely desirable item of collectable John Carpenter horror movie memorabilia signed by The Shape – Nick castle.
Trivia: John Carpenter considered the hiring of Jamie Lee Curtis as the ultimate tribute to Sir Alfred Hitchcock who had given her mother, Janet Leigh, legendary status in Psycho (1960) (for the same reason, Dr. Sam Loomis was named after Sam Loomis from Psycho). During the same period, Universal studio producers and director Richard Franklin were trying to enroll Jamie Lee in the new production of Psycho II (1983).
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.

“Witchcraft enters the computer age, and a different terror begins.”
John Carpenter’s masterpiece of modern horror “Halloween” spawned a multitude of sequels which included this 1982 offering “Halloween III: Season of the Witch”.

The content and characterisations are super realistic, layout and colours perfectly balanced and a near perfect example of a re-imagined poster. Released in 2024 as an exclusive Private Commission, this strictly limited Artist Proof edition is hand-numbered AP 11/15 and signed by the artist.

“The film Francis is making is a metaphor for a journey into self. He has made that journey and is still making it. It’s scary to watch someone you love go into the center of himself and confront his fears, fear of failure, fear of death, fear of going insane. You have to fail a little, die a little, go insane a little, to come out the other side. The process is not over for Francis.”
The making of a movie has never been documented with more power to discern the true nature of what is happening behind the scenes than in this account of the torment and the passion of Francis Ford Coppola’s Apocalypse Now. All of the drama and emotion was filmed and documented by Fax Bahr, George Hickenlooper & Coppola’s own wife, Eleanor then released in 1991 as the documentary “Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker’s Apocalypse”. In July 2025 to coincide with a 4K Ultra HD Special Edition release, Eleanor Coppola’s remastered movie received a limited number of cinema screenings. These were accompanied by an incredible newly commissioned poster by Akiko Stehrenberger which demonstrates a beautiful use of colour and featuring the helicopter imagery, so memorable from Apocalypse Now’s original 1979 marketing campaign and of course so pivotal in the movie itself. Rolled (as issued) it presents to excellent effect and represents one of the best reimagined cinematic posters in recent years and certainly in the running as the best cinematic poster of 2025.
Trivia: This film has a 100% rating based on 33 critic reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.

One of the most impressive ‘arthouse’ film posters of recent memory; a true visual pop art masterpiece featuring Lili Taylor (playing Valerie Jean Solanas) shooting a revolver all in the style of an Andy Warhol screen printed canvas. The one-sheet of Mary Harron’s controversial true-life documentary for “I Shot Andy Warhol” is a piece of art in its own right. The US imagery although similar to the British design, which is in block colour, is actually in black and white and because of this you I think it’s the more pleasing design and you would be hard pressed to find a better looking poster. Being an independent ‘arthouse’ film meant it was shown in a very small, limited amount of cinemas, making these posters are incredibly hard to come by. Totally original and unrestored this rolled (as issued) poster example displays to exceptional effect and represents a superb example of genuinely scarce modern film memorabilia.
Trivia: The filmmakers were given permission to reproduce some of Andy Warhol’s paintings and silk screens for the set, but they had to destroy them after filming.

“For generations the Mafia preyed on the innocent. Tonight someone is preying on them.”
John Landis turns his horror talents from werewolves to vampires in this dark comedy, horror actioner “Innocent Blood”. This original 1992 UK quad film poster is stunning; great artwork by Renato Casaro as we see Marie (Anne Parillaud) in full vampire mode offset against a stained glass window. A lovely blue colour palette is used throughout which perfectly highlights the use of red in her eyes. In excellent original, unrestored condition this rolled (as issued) example displays to superb effect and represents a great item of original horror movie memorabilia from a director who has made this genre very much his own.
Trivia: Although this entire movie is about vampires, the word “vampire” itself is never actually used.

“I am Iron Man. The suit and I are one. To turn over the Iron Man suit would be to turn over myself, which is tantamount to indentured servitude or prostitution, depending on what state you’re in. You can’t have it.”
If you like your movie posters bold and impressive, then you will love this country of origin 2010 US one-sheet movie poster for Marvel Studios’ super hero sequel romp “Iron Man 2”. Full ‘Cast’ style featuring Iron Man, Tony Stark, War Machine, Don Cheadle, Black Widow & Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) plus the inimitable Mickey Rourke as the villain Ivan Danko, ‘Whiplash’.

Highly collectable as this was the first direct sequel (to the blockbuster “Iron Man”) and privately funded by Marvel Studios.

A hugely influential and important modern film that represents a fantastic item of original movie memorabilia. If movie posters follow the trend of the comics, then ‘key’ and first appearances will become equally significant…this features the first appearances of Black Widow and War Machine.
Trivia: Scarlett Johansson dyed her hair red before she even got the part of Natasha Romanov, a.k.a. Black Widow, because she wanted the role so badly.

Timothy Dalton’s second outing as 007 was a truly gritty tale of revenge and action with a great white shark being an unusual instrument of torture for one scene. Keith Hamshere (who made Dalton the ‘perfect’ Bond in The Living Daylights campaign ) was again retained as the Bond photographer on this 1989 country of origin British UK quad for “Licence to Kill” featuring a moody Timothy Dalton in close up. Genuinely scarce this rolled (as issued) example looks superb and is presented totally unrestored in high grade condition and represents a worthy addition for any poster collector or any collection of James Bond cinematic movie memorabilia.
Trivia: It is widely and incorrectly rumored that this was Timothy Dalton‘s last James Bond film due it being financially disappointing. In reality, Dalton was to star in a third James Bond film after this one, titled “Property of a Lady”, written by Michael G. Wilson and Alfonse Ruggiero Jr. and set to start shooting in 1990, with pre-production work having begun in May of that year. However legal issues with MGM beginning that year created long delays which eventually led Dalton to announce his retirement from the role in 1994, a year after his initial contract expired, paving the way for Pierce Brosnan‘s casting in GoldenEye (1995). Had the film been made, it would have been set in Scotland, Tokyo, and Hong Kong, and would have involved nanotechnology.

1987 was the end of a historic movie tradition as Brian Bysouth produced the last fully 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”. The advance teaser poster preceding this was a mixture of photograph and artwork created by Brian, the advertising agency Feref, Jeffrey Bacon & David Generic and is distinctive for the see-through negligee. However it is not Bond babe Maryam d’Abo in the shot but American model Kathy Stangel in this famous pose & beautifully photographed by Jim McCrary. The original 1987 UK (country of origin) movie poster offered here is presented in exceptional unrestored, rolled (as issued) unfolded condition with bright and unfaded colour tones and white areas that are truly bright. Hugely desirable and very collectable, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia.
