“Before man walked the earth…it slept for centuries. It is evil. It is real. It is awakening.”
“Prince of Darkness” sees John Carpenter not just in the director’s chair, he wrote the soundtrack and also the screenplay under the pseudonym Martin Quatermass, which is a direct homage to Bernard Quatermass, the lead character in Hammer’s film and TV series that started with The Quatermass Experiment and that features several elements in common with Carpenter’s story. The film is the second in what the director calls his ‘Apocalypse Trilogy’ that started with The Thing (1982) and ended with In the Mouth of Madness (1994) and is the result of Carpenter’s interest in theoretical physics and atomic theory as well as the idea of an ultimate evil or ‘anti-god’ combined with the physics-based concept of matter and anti-matter. Carpenter always a well regarded and popular film maker has enjoyed a huge renaissance in more recent years so it was no surprise that this title was one of four seminal movies by the director re-released by Studio Canal in 2018, remastered in 4K, with the others being “They Live”, “Escape From New York” and “The Fog”. All four movies had a strictly limited cinematic release and were accompanied a newly designed poster campaign (quads and one-sheets) by leading artist Matt Ferguson. Ferguson’s unique artistic style is evident throughout the four, each with its very own unique colour palette. A number of these full-size 30″ x 40″ UK quad styles were also released as a limited edition art print by Vice Press. Identical to the cinematic quad, in fact exactly the same – same paper, printer etc these were issued as timed releases each signed and hand-numbered by Matt Ferguson. Offered here is one of these signed art prints numbered #48 from a print run of only 184. Originally rolled (as issued) it presents in excellent condition. A cool, cult poster that represents very collectable & desirable original film memorabilia from one of the greatest and most influential director’s who is still actively working in the film industry.
Trivia: John Carpenter claims to have been fascinated with religion ever since watching the old Hammer horror films and how Holy Water would destroy vampires.

“Before man walked the earth…it slept for centuries. It is evil. It is real. It is awakening.”
This is the British quad for the release of John Carpenter’s 1987 horror “Prince of Darkness”. As well as being in the director’s chair, Carpenter wrote the soundtrack and also the screenplay under the pseudonym Martin Quatermass, which is a direct homage to Bernard Quatermass, the lead character in Hammer’s film and TV series that started with The Quatermass Experiment and that features several elements in common with Carpenter’s story. The film is the second in what the director calls his ‘Apocalypse Trilogy’ that started with The Thing (1982) and ended with In the Mouth of Madness (1994) and is the result of Carpenter’s interest in theoretical physics and atomic theory as well as the idea of an ultimate evil or ‘anti-god’ combined with the physics-based concept of matter and anti-matter. The original 1987 UK quad film poster for John Carpenter’s “Prince of Darkness” offered here was originally rolled (as issued) & presents in original unrestored condition with great horror imagery, strong colours and deep unfaded black background. This imagery of the screaming, disfigured face with the bug in its mouth, as well as the church and the oozing green liquid was used in the worldwide marketing campaign. A scarce poster in this high grade condition, that represents very collectable & desirable original film memorabilia from one of the greatest and most influential director’s ever working in the sci-fi / horror / action genre.
Trivia: Screenwriter John Carpenter is credited as “Martin Quatermass”. The pseudonym is a homage to Professor Bernard Quatermass, the lead character of The Quatermass Experiment (1953) and several subsequent TV series and film versions. In the original press notes he was described as ‘the brother of Professor Bernard Quatermass, head of the British rocket programme.’ In a further nod to Carpenter’s influences, the character Wyndham is named after science-fiction author John Wyndham and Anne Howard‘s character is named after the star of The Wasp Woman (1959), Susan Cabot.

“A Force more powerful than 1,000 H-Bombs unleashed to devastate earth ! World in panic ! Cities in flames !”
A beautiful and incredibly rare country of origin UK quad film poster and one of Hammer’s best for Roy Ward Baker’s 1967 supernatural alien invasion thriller “Quatermass and the Pit”. Tom Chantrell’s magnificent detailed artwork; heaving bosoms, London aflame in ruins, glittering spaceships, martian devils is stunning…A personal favourite and featured in Marcus Hearn’s excellent book “The Art of Hammer”. Folded (as issued) with strong vibrant colours this totally original unrestored investment grade example from first year of release 1967 presents superbly and is a very rare example of country of origin Hammer Horror memorabilia and one of the best movie posters produced from one of their finest and most respected productions…“You realise what you are implying? That we owe our human condition here to the intervention of insects”
Trivia: When Dr. Quatermass is picking at the eyeball of the dead Martian creature in his laboratory, the pupils of the compound eye are a rectangular slot shape rather then round like a human eye. This is reminiscent of a goat’s eye, a creature that, for centuries, has been associated with witchcraft and sorcery.

“Mysterious deaths surround an American ambassador. Could the child that he is raising actually be the Antichrist? The Devil’s own son?”
Designed by Tom Jung this advance teaser for Richard Donner’s 1976 horror classic “The Omen” is a stunning example of horror art. The ominous wording YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED and the film’s title (the 666 featured in the O of OMEN is a great touch) are prominent when placed upon the deep black background with Damien illustrated in silhouette with his shadow depicted as that of a jackal. It’s such a simple design but so, so clever and perfectly suited to the portrait format offered here. From first year of release, 1976 this US one sheet presents to excellent effect, benefitting from conservation linen backing, with the original fold lines touched in to give a rolled impression. A personal favourite and an impressive item of original cinematic movie memorabilia from one of the defining horror movie’s of the genre.
Trivia: Harvey Stephens, as Damien, was largely chosen for this role from the way he attacked Richard Donner during auditions. Donner asked all the little boys to “come at him” as if they were attacking Katherine Thorn during the church wedding scene. Stephens screamed and clawed at Donner’s face, and kicked him in the groin during his act. Donner whipped the kid off him, ordered the kid’s blond hair dyed black and cast him as Damien.

“Mysterious deaths surround an American ambassador. Could the child that he is raising actually be the Antichrist? The Devil’s own son?”
Featuring a country uniques design, this combination of photographic images and artwork (Tom Jung) for Richard Donner’s 1976 horror classic “The Omen” is a stunning example of horror art. The film is famous for its grisly deaths, and many of those are highlighted here – Father Brennan (Patrick Troughton) speared through in the churchyard and the journalist Jennings (David Warner) decapitated by a sheet of plate glass. If you didn’t want to know too much about the plot then you would have been well advised to avoid this particular poster in 1976. This originally folded (as issued) Japanese B2 presents very well. A personal favourite and an impressive item of original cinematic movie memorabilia from one of the defining horror movie’s of the genre.

“Mysterious deaths surround an American ambassador. Could the child that he is raising actually be the Antichrist? The Devil’s own son?”
With a design by Tom Jung this Australian waybill for Richard Donner’s 1976 horror classic “The Omen” is an impressive example of horror art that also benefits from being signed by the Anti-Christ himself – HARVEY STEPHENS; a beautiful clear signature that includes his character name – DAMIEN where he has cleverly incorporated the number of the Beast 666 into the capital letter D of his name. All written in a silver pen that contrasts incredibly strongly against the black background. The ominous wording and the film’s title are written in the distinctive style synonymous with this now classic horror. It’s such a simple text based design but so, so clever and perfectly suited to the portrait format offered here. From first year of release, 1976 this tri-folded (as issued) example presents to very good effect. A personal favourite and an impressive item of original cinematic movie memorabilia from one of the defining horror movie’s of the genre that carries the mark of the Devil’s son himself.
