I remember seeing this in a video store when I was a teenager back in 1984. It made quite an impression on me at the time.

Also, there's an amazing online library of hi-res posters scans for "horror, sci-fi, exploitation, cult, trash, and B-movies" called Wrong Side of the Art. Check it out:

Last Year at Marienbad is a cool picture, thanx for the address.

Colour Me Blood Red's a HG Lewis film.

That picture right there, is pretty much the most explicit part of the film in terms of gore. Basically, the guy is squeezing a woman's intestine so blood comes out, which he can use as paint. Not exactly medically accurate...but...

Favourite posters...I do like the Into The Void poster as well. I've never seen the film, but I remember seeing the poster about a year ago and it intrigued me.

I’m a fan of Drew Struzan’s poster work. He’s also done some pretty decent album covers.

i like enter the void poster, when i first saw it i was hypnotised by it, i thought the movie would prob be boring but i loved the movie, one of my all time fave now. i dont think the movie would be for everyone tho.

Yeah - despite the cast it wasn't near as good as the original..

I love this poster for it too:

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LNHX4FxctG...00/poster1.jpg

Elvis - did you know that they shot different scenes for some parts of that film. I had a copy of when they are 'auditioning' new talent in the club. The bit with the new hooker was shot with her naked and with clothes on. The original Brit release had the former (as well as really cut).
