Italian 2F (39x55 in) for Howling II (1985). From all I've read, the movie is quite a stinker, even tho the script was written by the author of the original Howling story. It also stars Christopher Lee.

The poster art, by Kirby, almost has a comic book feel it. And I think it works very well, even tho the imagery has little to do with the actual film. The poster also has a snipe attached over the original distributor's name in the upper right corner. Tho it's not intrusive, it could still be removed, but it doesnt bother me (at least right now).

Lyn, you've got to be closing in on a full WZ set, congrats.

Never seen the Howling II - quite lovely, and it has the same vibe as the French moyenne for Curse of the Werewolf. Would be interesting to see them together on a wall. The first Howling is my absolute favorite werewolf film, I don't ever recall seeing #2 either or any of the seemingly unending number of sequels for that matter.

Thanks Lynn. And that coming from the horror meister.

Peter, i think the first Howling is a great flicker, too. No doubt. Dee Wallace, Christopher Stone, John Carradine and Joe Dante's direction are fantastic. And Rob Bottin's makeup FX--creepy to be sure.

This one, tho, I think failed on many levels (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howling_II:_Your_Sister_Is_a_Werewolf). It was even mentioned later on (and after the fact) that Christopher Lee was was not happy he had signed on to be in this film.

But I think this Italian poster is cool.

I've been on a fool's quest to get all of the "greens", the 38 re releases on DRACULA, FRANKENSTEIN, WHITE ZOMBIE and THE OLD DARK HOUSE. ODH is not as much of a priority as the first three. But, one more on WZ and D and the book is closed on them. FRANK needs 7 and ODH all 8. I just hope there's enough sand left in the hour glass to get'm all, 49% and counting

Came across and (literally) picked this one up, on Monday, from a local seller.

Rolled, US SS OS for John Carpenter's Vampires (1998). I think this poster design works really well for a "modern." And you can't go wrong with Sheryl Lee - who will forever be, for me -- Laura Palmer.

That is a mighty fine poster Ari and honestly notwithstanding the purists it would not look nearly as awesome with folds. I approve this message!

Ari@ Delightful poster. I just love the name Kinji Kukusomething. The colours are quite something!

Matt@ that poster is such a treat. It reminds me of Pans Labyrinth. Fab design!
