1980s Horror Films

[DarianCastle]

As i understand it Beetlejuice was going to be a straight horror movie but at some point it became a comedy. I have to say i think it's a great movie and couldn't imagine it any other way. A little fun fact for you, my brother actually did some work for Tim Burton's "the nightmare before Christmas". He did some concept designs for merchandise of the brand.

I like that German Critters poster mucho, Darian. LOVE the vivid, intense colors and the overall design, too.

With Jeff on that one - wonderful poster and watching your video it seems you love the movie also  - keep them coming. How many in your collection so far Darian?

Thanks guys, i have about 85 posters from the 70s to 80s. I'm sure that isn't very much compared to the average person on this forum though. I'm getting less posters now but the price seems to be going up, isn't that the way?

The exact same reason I got my copy. Ha!  The movie is crap though and place like a weak remake of HALLOWEEN 2.

Japanese B1 (29x40 inches) for Nightmare On Elm St 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985)

I've always liked the Elm Street film series, and there are some fantastic Elm Street posters around from different countries, and I have to say that some of the Japanese Elm Street posters are certainly quite unique in their design, a good one Jeff

Such a fun, cool and campy flick.

I agree, Jeff!  Cool film and nice poster.  And, Jamie Gertz is a bazillionaire!  Okie

HOWLING II (1985)

Great exploration of the color blue on The Howling II poster, Jeff!  I hadn't seen this poster before that I can remember.  Okie

With all that blue, I can't say that it's an Italian thing.... even tho the poster is.

But the art is by Kirby. So maybe that explains it, Okie.

That's properly creepy, Darian!  I never had a teddy bear, only a security blanket.  Okie
