Since I have the OS, I'll weigh in.  The six sheet blows 'em both away:

Yes, the 6Sht is jollyfine, I'd take that one. It's Not as Cramped as the 1Sht.   Though still no Hat...

Is the 6sht yours Mel?

No, but it can be found relatively cheap, if anyone's interested.  I just shelled out for the LB OS, so I'm not going to get the 6S as well.  Of course, as soon as I bought mine, a non-LB OS - which I would have preferred - has popped up for sale, so keep an eye out for it as well.

I like them both but the OS feels cramped, with the "damsel in distress" placed almost to the very edge of the poster artwork. The landscape image of the cemetery to her right works much better, IMO. In addition, I do like the depiction of the rider in the quad better, but the color, overall, is less vivid.

Surprisingly I only have the 1Sht for this film, I know I should get a Quad. Though I think these maybe should be in the film needs a better poster section...  Any Hoo, Quad is again better for this classic. :)

No, nothing on that Title Ari. It's a very obscure film, I can't say I've seen any posters from it...

Greg Edwards had one years ago, but as you can imagine it wasn't cheap, I LOVE the movie, haven't seen it for about 20 years though.
One day I'll get something, though I imagine it was only in theatres in the UK.


Edit, heres a pic:



Double edit, seems its still available from Greg, but cheaper than it was:

Time to start saving.

I like parts of both.. the OS has great graphics but i prefer the more intense, staring eyes on the quad.. they look more menacing to me. So it's a bit of a toss, for me, as I like aspects of both.

Seeing as THE COLLECTOR quad just fell into Harry Caul's massive collection this month, here's my one sheet for this superlative thriller...



vs. Quad



vs. Thierry's French version...



While I like the art for all three, I think the one sheet effectively captures the intensity of the film better than the others.  I'll never forget that scene.
