15 Awesome Horror Movie Posters
It’s that time of the year. No it’s not quite Halloween yet but it’s the time of year where we are starting to see trailers for horror movies. The studios are getting ready to reel us in to be scared in a couple of months.
So far I’m not seeing anything too horrific. Personally I’m not a huge fan of horror movies. I don’t like jumping out of my seat. If anything I like movies that are really messed up, just not blood and guts and loud phone ringing.
In any event, I thought it’d be a good time to post some pretty awesome horror movie posters. Enjoy!
Thanks to Listal for the images
The rest are even better!

And since it’s not pure horror per se, Zombieland one is awesome:

Cloverfield had great mysterious posters, one with Statue of Liberty is classic, but these are good also:

Afterlife is normal, but creepy, something about Liam Neeson presence:

I don’t care if movie is crap or not, but this is very imaginative poster:

The Descent’s cover is a rip off of “Silence of The Lambs”.
Then both “The Silence of the Lambs” and “The Descent” are homages to a portrait of nude women in the same position by Salvador Dali.
Actually both the “Silence of the Lambs” and “The Descent” posters were inspired by “In Voluptas Mors” by Salvador Dali and Phillipe Halsman
A Nightmare on Elm Street is by far the best film ever, I have watched it million time but I still like it a lot…….The movie poster can not be any better, it is amazing….
The Poltergeist poster is the most effective one. Simple and creepy. That’s a hard combo to beat.
