Dear Friends and Movie Lovers
Hello from Hollywood and Happy Halloween!
Before we get to this month's new poster acquisitions, we've got a couple of suggestions for the spooky season:
If you are in the Los Angeles area, you should definitely check out the 18th annual Dia De Los Muertas festival at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. It's an extraordinary event that has become a beloved, can't-miss, modern LA tradition. You can get more info by clicking here or on the poster image (for the 1985 George Romero film DAY OF THE DEAD)
And wherever you are, you can take a look at some of our favorite horror film posters (such as this U.S. 1 Sheet for John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN) by clicking here
