It features a woman falling into a cocktail glass and the part of her that has fallen into the glass has turned into a skelteton. Pretty popular image, but I can't remember the source of it for the life of me.

Probably from the 80s or late 70s.

Rings a bell.

Could be an Italian horror movie.

Thanks.

I just googled Italian Horror posters and found this image of a lady that is in the ballpark in terms of style/rendering, as well as the body position.

The woman/skeleton on the cocktail poster I have in mind has fallen into the cocktail glass in almost the same positon as the woman in the image above, only her feet are poking up out of the glass and her head is submerged in the liquid (the head has subsequently turned into a skeleton, while the part of her body outside the glass is still that of a normal woman).

One of those old-school witchcraft flicks I think.

It was out at about the same time as Suspiria and the others...the name keeps eluding me.

NICE.

That's without a doubt the source image I had in mind.

I think the cocktail glass poster was a parody of it or something to that effect. I know there was a poster over at Gigposters that had an illustrated version of that image in a cocktail glass, but I can't find it, so maybe that's where the whole cocktail part came into play.

But either way thanks alot cause that's definitely the base image I had in mind.

If anyone knows anything about a possible cocktail glass poster with a woman in almost that exact same pose - by all means feel free to join the party....

I found the one I had seen over at Gigposters and it's pretty much just a straight up jack-move....

Maybe my mind is just playing tricks on me, but I swear there is a parody poster of that Scream and Scream Again image with the woman in a cocktail glass.

it's not unusual for concepts to be copied and slightly altered ..

(the same way they use established music from some films to promote other films in tha Ads)

i have an image in my mind and it wasnt the Scream and Scream again poster shown in the thread

Right? I swear there is a version of this thing with a cocktail glass, but at the same time I'm starting to feel I'm on the brink of insanity....

Are either of these two images the one you had in mind, or was the image you envisioned completely different altogether?

lol - nice. I'll temporarily suspend that stamp of insanity onto my forehead.

Appreciate the Scream one though. That definitely eased the pain.

I spent over an hour looking for that image....











i live a sad life :(

completely different - more cartoonish, blue background.

its possible i'm confusing a few different things and blending them together ...
