September 2015
« on: September 01, 2015, 02:22:34 AM »
Not long after missing out on the Doņa Diabla several months ago at EMP, I came across one on eBay for a bargain price. It's funny how the timing worked out since I had had my eye out for one of these for a few years. The one I found on eBay was in fairly rough shape, but it looks nice now after Dario worked his magic:



I also found "Las Locuras de Tin Tan" which had been on my want list for quite a while.

I really like Maria Felix, she was both talented and beautiful. A tough woman. The poster is gorgeous. Congrats.

Bravo!  Nice pieces. I'm still hesitant to go the linen route myself, but I do see the wonders of restoration that can be done. They are stunning.

Love the Mexican posters.  Deke did Mario do the linen backing for you?  Also love the FUEGO poster!

This one just arrived and I immediately framed it.  I've wanted it for years. It's my favorite Hammer film and possibly my favorite Belgian poster.  I think the Hammer Belgian posters are some of the best out there.

Beautiful, Mike. Love the frame, too.

And the Belgian art so often is SO on the mark.. and the compositions and color are outstanding. This is a beauty and Ive always admired this imagery, too.

Wow that Japanese NIGHTMARE poster is insane, nice pickup!  CRITTERS looks creepy, I've never seen it...is it any good?

Sorry I didn't include these in the first post, they were still at the frame shop.  I bought all 3 of the posters the same day last month.  I figured I would unpack all 3 and frame 'em up.

Those are cool, Jeff.  

The "do you know me?" line on the Critters poster is interesting.  Do you know if that was in the movie or just the poster?

Thanks, Brandon and Mike.

Great other 2 posters there to complete the Hammer trio, Mike.  thumbsup.gif

Brandon, i dont know if that tag line is from the movie or not, or maybe just a line from the film. And I dont recall seeing it on any of the US posters either. So maybe only the Japanese used it? It caught my eye, too, when i first saw it.

Really nice posters there, MW.  Some of the best for the films, and from Belgium, IMO

Nice ones Deke!

It's always very easy to spot a Dario backing job - his linen cut is very distinctive

Thanks all for the comments on the posters. mwright: Dario (not Mario) did the linen backing.

I haven't seen either movie.  In fact I have only seen a handful of Mexican movies. The art is the main attraction for me with the Mexican posters. Though Doña Diabla is actually supposed to be a good film (I will get around to watching it soon).

Rolled, Japanese B1 for Beetlejuice (1988). Sorry for the poorer image. My camera was working on fumes and i forgot the charger back east.
