That Kwaidan B2 is awesome.  One of the best classic Japanese posters out there.

I second that. One of my favorite Asian movies, right up there with ONIBABA.
Does anyone have ONIBABA paper?

That Sin City is one of my favorites, I was offered one at one time but couldn't get it in my head to pay more for a poster that was less than a year old than a payment on my house.

Here are a few from my collection...

Infernal Affairs (HK poster) - one of my faves, I love the film (superior to the Scorsese remake in my opinion) and I think the poster captures the atmosphere of the film well too


Old Boy (Korean poster I think) - posted earlier in the thread, but I like the art and although it may not be as good looking as the US 1-sheet on an aesthetic level, I think it suits the film pretty well.


House of Flying Daggers - I can't remember which countries these are from unfortunately...think one may be HK and one maybe Korea.

Very nice, Tob.  HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS is one of my favorite films and those posters are beautiful.

OLD BOY is a Hong Kong poster.
The HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS posters could be Hong Kong and/or Taiwanese posters. Definitely not Korean as they don't use Chinese characters in movie titles anymore, only their own Korean characters.

This one is from Taiwan, I think.  The one from Chinese and HK versions are the same as this, but with a red rather than white title.

Love that Spider poster Armin.  I have been meaning to try to pick one of those up.  It fits the mood of the film very well.

Thanks on the HPD comments fellas.  It's Korean, and I just realized that it might be the only pre-1980 Korean poster I have ever seen for a domestic film.  I guess it always could be a rerelease as well though.

Dang, I just realized we have neglected Thai posters.  They are part of Asia after all, and have some of the best art and use of color around.  All of these save for Seven Samurai are year of release.  That one is, I'm sure, a rerelease poster, but I have no clue which one its for.  If I had to guess, I'd say early 80's.
