Really insane to think that

a.) someone rereleased THE CREEPING UNKNOWN in the 70's
b.) someone thought it was a good idea to create THAT poster to advertise it
c.) someone bought a ticket for the movie based on THAT poster

Crazy country, that Australia.....

And obviously not by its content either if CREEPING UNKNOWN was such a smash hit down under that someone saw the potential to release it again.......

Nah we just use cinemas as an excuse to root in public. So the actual film doesn't matter, it's the title, it is cryptic way for telling possible patrons the fetish of the night, creeping unknown was I believe a night for people who like masks and moccasins.

THE CREEPING UNKNOWN is still my favorite Quatermass.
Anyone have a one sheet for cheap?

  I could not resist this daybill last night on emovie.  I am sure the APF Price Police has issued a warrant for my arrest after spending $330 on it.  But a stone litho with both Jimmy Stewart and John Wayne is a winner in my book.   happy1

Despite my tomfoolery about daybill art in another thread, this one has very nice artwork, indeed.  Congrats.  thumbup

Thanks for the nice words.  I have an aversion to photo based daybills, but I really like the stone litho artwork of the older ones.  Here is the emovie pic of the one I bought from them earlier this month.

Don't worry about the Price Police in here - he doesn't like Daybills so there is no reason for him to come in and rain on your parade.

Me, I think it was a lovely buy, the colours really really pop, I think the art of Stewart and Wayne are excellent - great poster (and top notch song too: )



Not much took my fancy this run through so I have just the one to report, more about my teen memories than anything else...(plus I collect this type/era of "genre")

No complaints at all from my end about the price paid for Liberty (bigger bank) Balance!  ;D

  Nothing second tier about Alice Cooper. And I loved his Wayne's World cameo.   ;D

Fay Wray and Miriam Hopkins in a gender-bending Prince and the Pauper?
What a great piece! Really dig the typography.

Perty, Perty, Perty Ves!

Fits in great with the rest of your long daybill collection (or should I say archive?  ;) )

Yup. Cheers.

The colour definition used in Dirk's face is one of the best I've ever seen.
