Legendary creator Brian Clemens writes and directs this stylish, revisionist Hammer Horror – pitting a swashbuckling hero (Horst Janson), his hunchbacked assistant (John Cater) and a feisty gypsy (Caroline Munro) ingenue against a cunning and malevolent vampire. 2025 sees the cult classic “Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter” makings its worldwide debut as a brand-new 4K restoration from the original negative film elements. The release was accompanied (with certain orders) by a highly exclusive, limited-edition Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter poster, masterfully illustrated world-renowned artist and horror maestro Graham Humphreys. Limited to just 70 meticulously crafted copies with the official Hammer certificate accompanying this poster number #31. Although officially a print run of 70, the number of actual posters surviving in very good or better condition is much, much less due to issues with damage caused by shipping. This piece is the ultimate collector’s item, capturing the legendary vampire slayer and his full supporting cast in stunning detail and vibrant colour. Hammer horror memorabilia is always popular and desirable and this original rolled (as issued) special British full size (30′ x 40′) quad is no exception that displays to beautiful effect.
Trivia: Although no further movies of Kronos were made, his adventures were continued in two comic books published 40 years apart. “The House of Hammer #1-3” (October 1976-January 1977) and “Captain Kronos – Vampire Hunter #1-4” (Titan Comics 2017).

A truly influential horror classic…Tobe Hooper’s adaption of the Stephen King vampire novel “Salem’s Lot” was crying out for a sequel, sadly Larry Cohen’s 1987 offering “A Return to Salem’s Lot” isn’t a patch on the original. Yes, the movie had a brief cinematic release of about a week before hitting the video stores. What it does have going for it is an incredible (if slightly mis-leading) horror poster to promote it. Adapting the unmistakable lettering from ‘Salem’s Lot’ with an image of the main vampire antagonist, Kurt Barlow (he doesn’t feature in the sequel). This original 1987 British video film features great horror imagery featuring Barlow towering over the town of Jerusalem’s Lot. If you are a fan of the King novel and the horror genre this is an extremely desirable and very rare poster. In excellent unrestored condition this rolled (as issued) example presents & displays to superb effect and represents an exciting and scarce item of original horror film movie memorabilia.
Trivia: A rare instance in which a successful TV miniseries was followed up by a theatrically-released sequel.

A truly influential horror classic…Tobe Hooper’s adaption of the Stephen King vampire novel “Salem’s Lot”. This original 1981 (first year of release in Japan) Japan B2 film poster features great great horror imagery and often referred to as the “montage style” featuring the evil vampire Kurt Barlow over shadowing the vampire hunters including David Soul. “Salem’s Lot” originally aired in the USA as a 2-night mini-series with the first episode airing on November 17, 1979 and the second episode airing the following week on November 24, 1979. It was the first television mini-series (and the second film) to be based on the writings of author Stephen King and was a huge ratings success with word of mouth (the social media of the 80’s) creating the popular need for cinematic releases worldwide. Unique Japanese design and with no US or British big screen theatre release this is an extremely desirable and very rare film poster. In excellent unrestored condition this tri-folded (as issued) example presents & displays to superb effect and represents an exciting and scarce country unique piece of original horror film movie memorabilia.
Trivia: The biggest issue that divides fans of the novel and miniseries is the fact that Barlow is depicted as a hissing Nosferatu-like monster in the adaptation, as opposed to the speaking Dracula-like character of the novel. In an interview with Richard Kobritz he said the decision to go with the terrifying monster figure came out of concerns that a speaking, romanticized villain just wouldn’t be frightening enough, especially as John Badham‘s remake of Dracula (1979) starring Frank Langella was released in 1979. Stephen King was against the change at first, but after he saw the footage, he thought it may help the audience focus more on the main characters.
