“In films murders are always very clean. I show how difficult it is and what a messy thing it is to kill a man.” --- Alfred Hitchcock ::::::::::: MY CRITERIA FOR DISCUSSION ENCOMPASSES THE HORROR GENRE AND BEYOND, SO I USE THE TERM "NIGHTMARE MOVIES". SPOILERS CAN OCCUR WITH OR WITHOUT WARNING. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I’m going old school this time around. I’ve selected only Golden Age classics, with a hint of fromage. From a time when illustration was paramount, vivid colour was king, and bold typeset was de rigueur.

I love the old art deco style graphic designs, there’s something undeniably creepy about them. But enough from me, bring on the glamour horror!

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920)

The Phantom of the Opera (1925)

Frankenstein (1931)

Dracula (1931)

The Mummy (1932)

Murders in the Rue Morgue (1932)

Island of Lost Souls (1932)

The Wolf Man (1941)

The Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)

Them! (1954)

Pit and the Pendulum (1961)

The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971)

Young Frankestein (1974)

Very cool.
I love the old ones.

Dr Phibes is so 70's

The creature from the black lagoon. The poster was better than the film.

However I still like "Them", in a strange way.

The faces say it all. Good posters, Bryn, but I always like what you do, it's just that I prefer green tea and cake.
