Movie posters

After seeing a cover of a new horror movie named Red hook, I instantly come to think of Carver and babysitter wanted.

Never heard of any of them?
Maby just seen the cover..

So, before I start posting some pics, we all know that the remakes, reboots, spin off, rip offs are overfloding the market right now. Is there any new story to tell?
People don´t like changes so much (obviously), we are used to a certain kind of entertainment and that is pretty understandable, if we (the movie geeks) know what we like, why should we seek for something else? And why should the moviemakers change the succesfull formula?
Many questions and so many many remakes - even when it comes to posters.

Note.
So, is the note not supposed to be at the end, like explaining things?
Belive me, you will understand why I decided to post the "note thing" here.
I haven´t seen all these movies so I can´t comment on the storyline, but as far as some covers goes, there is a resemblance either you like it or not.
Some posters/covers are way better then the movie itself, and as you can see below; À l'intérieur has 2 covers and believe me they are well deserved.


Apparently this is even worse then I thought.























































Some girl in bikini showing her butt might sell a movie, or 2.






















Crossing some knifes?




















Feeling sensual?




















They even have done it before, copying movieposters that is.






































Sometimes the even use the same acter but "reverse" the poster





















About now your head is about to crack open..





































Broken? Sure you are.





















We need something fresh, something new.. and Quentin Tarantino was the chosen one..
Ok this one was farfetched, but see the "acid trip colours" and that face






















A lonely man walks on a road after the holocaust or something like that. It symbolizes mans last hope, or something similuar




















More brighter and romantic costume dramas? Same old story, use a splitscreen, put one image above the other, or was it one picture below the other? Tricky one.




















The world of horror, so much simpler isn´t it? Get a house in the woods and put some red layer across the filther and voila´, you got yourself a poster.





















Sneaking posters





















Face to face while possibly screaming posters









Take care ^_^
