Well, we’ve had romantic teenage vampires, lesbian vampires and even underage (Let The Right One In) baby vampires, but 2009 is likely to be the year when the WOLFMAN makes his comeback.

I was lucky enough to visit Pinewood last year and was on set during the filming of Benicio Del Toro’s new movie THE WOLFMAN. A true remake of the 1941 Lon Chaney Jr classic. I fully expect this movie to jump start this woefully neglected horror genre in the same way as The Howling and An American Werewolf In London did in the early 80′s. Early footage shows a mix of CGI and prosthetics as Del Toro transforms from Lawrence Talbot to the titular monster.

In tribute the VINTAGE MOVIE POSTERS has been updated to include some really great and rare items in its FEATURED ITEMS section, including a very rare set of THE HOWLING lobby cards and a beautiful US Insert from Hammer’s 1961 production CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF. My personal favourite, although by no means a classic is the exquisitely titled 1971 “masterpiece” WEREWOLVES ON WHEELS. As the tagline says “This Gang Thought It Was Tough… ’til it found a new type of hell…The Bride of Satan!”…They just don’t make movies or produce taglines like that anymore.

Well October 31st is HALLOWEEN

and to mark this we shall be highlighting some of our great HORROR posters over the next few weeks.

What a great HORROR MOVIE ICON

 to start off with. One of the original UNIVERSAL MONSTERS: THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON .

These posters are both French and when you consider that an original US One Sheet will set you back well in excess of £ 10,000 they represent excellent value for money. Both are by acclaimed painter Constantin Belinsky and have painted artwork that is totally unique to these French cinema releases.
