I have basically been very disconnected from movie news for the last few months, but I still try to at least keep up with the posters coming out whenever I can. This leads to some interesting moments when I find out a certain movie is being made by seeing its poster. Not having any other [...]

This is not exactly the poster one would expect from a vampire movie. Especially not after the first, much more genre standard, poster. But it does make sense once you take into account that the film takes place in the near future and that an important plot point is that vampires are now harvesting [...]

I think the contrast between the welcoming sign and the dire warning scribbled in red would be more effective if we could actually read the original text. As it is this is just a scary sign. The town in the background does look quite placid, but it’s almost invisible when paired with the strong and [...]

I thought the days seeing the SAW posters find some clever way to work the film’s number into the poster image where over. I guess not.
Honestly, the tradition feels stale. And the way they created the number is clever, but also feels too contrived.
This poster looks lot like the posters we used to see for [...]

Well, the hot streak of motion posters had to end eventually. So after several motion posters that seemed to understand how to use the liberty of the new media we get this, basically the same thing as the final poster but with some motion thrown in, almost as an after thought. Not exactly awe-inpiring.

The SAW nurses were always sexy, but in a very doll, almost fake way. An aspect which the latest poster apparently decided to embrace completely.
These blood drive posters have that warm feeling of tradition by now, but they are probably irrelevant to the marketing. Hopefully they actually do some good by getting people to participate [...]

I know it will suck. Know it! But the claws, the shirt and the face are all such memorable parts of my young adulthood that I can’t help but to feel some goosebumps.
Which is why it pays to do lame remakes on the cheap. The young ones want to experience something that was big before [...]

I mentioned when I was talking about the motion poster that Jigsaw has been more and more present in the posters for the latest SAW movies. This poster reminds me that this is only part of the trend. The marketing in general for the latest films strikes me as having a strong self referential bend. [...]

I guess it’s only natural that we now have a motion poster for a SAW movie. Creative and memorable (not to mention bloody) posters have been a trademark of the series, but as the years and movies went by it became harder and harder to create yet more posters that maintained the level of quality [...]

This poster for Zombieland has an abundance of land, but a clear lack of Zombies.
I mean, it does a pretty good job of setting a carnival ride feel, of setting the worldwide scope of the threat and it’s a nice teaser image to boot. But it still feels more like Disasterland or Fireland. It needs [...]
