Canned Panda posted:One night a year, all crime is legal Had to look up the trailer after staring at that poster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eFmi1E3s3w This looks... good? I really can't tell. Ethan Hawke might be making me think it could be good. I always have to give credit when the horror genre finds a way to tell an original story. We're not dealing with a psycho. A murderer. A ghost. Something haunted. A spell. It's just group of ordinary people who want to kill. When put like that... that's pretty loving scary. The whole trailer just seems like a better version of The Hunger Games so maybe it's that too.

CaptainHollywood posted:Had to look up the trailer after staring at that poster. I think it looks pretty good and suspensful. Kind of gives off a Funny Games or The Strangers vibe, but I like the plot enough. For some reason I also get a Battle Royal vibe (ie the government is quite happy to let it's citizens kill each other every now and again).

Lizard Combatant posted:Because it's awesome. I've never seen the film but that image is instantly recognisable. You've never seen The Company of Wolves? Fix that poo poo ASAP. It's exactly what you'd expect from an R-rated adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood by the director of The Crying Game.

I actually saw this tonight at a screening with the director present. It's a crazy movie and totally worth seeking out.

Something about the Comedian in that Watchmen poster is really bothering me (I mean, even more than usual Mondo stuff). Does his neck look kind of dainty or something?

I am tired that the mondo style means everyone has to have moldy, molted skin with bizarre shadowing on them to the point that Rambo looks like a grandma bit into a fresh lemon and Lector looks like he tried to wash concealer off of his forehead.

Been awhile since seeing it, but the younger students had dark uniforms and the older two were wearing white for that first poster, right? That second one looks like a terrible 2001 poster than a terrible Battle Royale poster.

I like the use of the NY subway sign style logo as a juxtaposition but it looks like the artist hit posterize on a bunch of stock photos and called it a day. Seems Mondo's business model is at the stage where employing a few good artists/designers from time to time can save the rest from being called out as a bunch of traced duotone shite.

Actually it looks fine, it's just really boring looking. The colors are all very flat and there's no interesting elements, plus the "chasm surrounding small platform" just doesn't work, visually, with real people.

I like movies and I like drawing. The other day I took a frame from Videodrome, lightboxed it, and had a grand old time going to town with a brush and pen to make a really fun image. I thought, "I should do more of these. They're fun and good practice for my ink work." And then people post more Mondo posters and I kind of never want to do it again.
