  Satanic Rites of Dracula

  £995.00

  “My revenge has spread over centuries and has just begun!”

  The Satanic Rites of Dracula (1974) was the eighth Hammer film and the seventh and final one to feature Christopher Lee as Count Dracula and the last time Lee and Peter Cushing would star together. The British poster campaign was illustrated by Hammer’s regular artist Tom Chantrell. The green-wash background contrasts effectively with the red Day-Glo title of the film, with Lee’s Dracula the focus of attention against a London skyline featuring the familiar landmarks of Big Ben and the Post-Office Tower. Presented unrestored and in excellent original folded (as issued) condition, this originally belonged to the renowned horror historian and collector Forrest Ackerman and is accompanied by a certificate from his Estate. A personal favourite of mine and featured in Marcus Hearn’s excellent book “The Art of Hammer”. An excellent investment grade example of original rare Hammer Horror movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: Count Dracula poses as a multi-millionaire who is never seen in public and never photographed. A 1970s audience would inevitably have been reminded of the eccentric and reclusive Howard Hughes.

  TRUE BLOOD

  £50.00

  “Do Bad Things…”

  With the growing popularity of online streaming and Viewing On Demand certain TV shows have achieved viewing figures that are comparable to major Hollywood films. Alan Ball’s “TRUE BLOOD” is one such TV show. Based on the best selling vampire novels of Charlaine Harris the HBO produced series proved incredibly popular running over 7 Seasons from 2008 – 2014. Introducing the viewer to vampires, werewolves, witches, goblins and fairies “TRUE BLOOD” was one of the most popular TV shows across the globe without a truly large and devoted fan base. Like the Movie studios, TV companies began treating their shows with similar advertising campaigns and posters and merchandising were produced to promote their most popular products. This is a rare example of the 201o US one sheet style TV poster used to promote Season 3 of “TRUE BLOOD”. Featuring a great ‘dark moody’ and very sexy cast shot it’s a fantastic looking piece and guaranteed original. Presented in excellent near mint rolled (as issued) condition it appears almost faultless and represents an investment grade example of desirable and collectable original TV memorabilia.

  What We Do in the Shadows

  £295.00

  “Viago, Deacon, and Vladislav are vampires who are struggling with the mundane aspects of modern life, like paying rent, keeping up with the chore wheel, trying to get into nightclubs, and overcoming flatmate conflicts.”

  A superb and eye-catching alternative movie poster by Graham Humphreys’ for the cult dark comedy horror “What We Do in the Shadows”. Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement.created the clever idea of a family of vampires living together under the same roof and the struggles they encounter in modern day life. Each vampire housemate bears some resemblance to a past screen vampire – Nosferatu, David (Lost Boys),  Dracula (Gary Oldman), Edward (Twilight zone) and Louis fromInterview With the Vampire. And it’s these five who feature on this 2015 Hand-Numbered (#AP 39/40) Artist Proof print that has also been signed by the artist – Graham Humphrey. Presented in excellent unrestored, rolled (as issued) condition with amazingly vibrant colour tones that truly pop from the paper (the photo doesn’t do this justice)it almost appears to be painted. A super-cool piece of cinematic memorabilia and artwork.

  Trivia: The hill where the vampires have a run-in with the werewolves is the same hill filmed in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), where Frodo and the hobbits are running from the Black Rider and hiding under the roots of a tree.
