Now for the last poster art entry, at least for now, I wanted to include some of my personal favorites, and me being a big B movie fan you know that means low budget schlock-fests. I could list innumerable posters I love the art for, and posters that are infinitely better than the movies themselves, but here’s a small handful you should hopefully enjoy:

Probably the rarest B movie artifact there is. Posters for old Roger Corman movies are going for big bucks these days, but they’re probably not as hard to find as the Ed Wood “classic.” Have no idea what they’re going for now, but I remember about ten years ago, if you could find one, a Plan 9 went for about $2,000.

One of my all-time favorite low budget classics, the Plan 9 of the ‘70’s, with great comic art from the late Gray Morrow.

Another late night classic, usually played on Channel 13 in L.A. at 2:30 in the morning. Here’s a rare poster of the 3-D version (!), which was also in 70mm (!!!).

Here's the poster for the infamous blaxploitation classic, featuring foul mouthed night club comedian Rudy Ray Moore.

This is more along the lines of big budget schlock, when mother nature runs amok movies were popular in the ‘70’s. Great artwork from John Berkey, but the original painting got stolen (anyone seen it on EBay?).

How could a poster like this NOT bring people into the theater? It opened on a double bill with Martin Scorsese’s Boxcar Bertha.

Hilarious poster art like this often makes great t-shirt designs.
