The 30 Strangest Movie Posters of All Time
|
Along with unwashed, yellowing sheets, movie posters are the most popular choice for decorating a college dorm room. Whether you preferred Luke Skywalker wielding his lightsaber, Vince Vaughn offering you a martini, or Clockwork Orange brandishing his dagger, if you went to college, you probably had a movie character watching over you as you studied, slept and explored your body quietly so that your roommate wouldn't hear. Everyone had a Swingers poster. Everyone had Star Wars posters. But there are hundreds of movies made every year, and there have been for close to a century. What happened to all their posters? Are they still around? Are any of them really stupid and weird? The answer (Oh lord, yes.) may surprise you.
Katherine Hepburn is menaced by two floating heads, who offer her unsolicited advice on the subjects of jogging and anal sex, in this 1952 classic.
We're glad to see a monster movie that finally answers the difficult question: What happens to all their bowel movements?
He' all pants, yet no sleeves can contain him. She' pantsless, but adores sleeves. Together, they fight crime.
Ronald Reagan, seen here in bed with someone who isn't his wife, and a monkey, who also probably isn't his wife. Also interestingly, it looks like people went to bed fully clothed in"¦ the '20s, we're guessing.
Remember back in the good old days, when everyone assumed that mixed martial arts would be nothing but heavily-oiled dudes leaping around and kicking each other in the chest, all for the amusement of secretive Chinese billionaires? Now, thanks to the UFC, we know that mixed martial arts fighting is basically a couple of barely-oily guys rolling around on the ground and punching each other, all for the amusement of Joe Rogan. We guess we're just sad that mixed martial arts had to grow up.
Kind of a hastily assembled, somewhat metaphorical poster here featuring a car that for some reason is able to express pain. We gather that the black triangle represents the road, the white background represents cocaine, and John Belushi represents John Belushi.
This poster honestly looks like it took someone five minutes to make. This is the movie poster equivalent of a kid doing his homework on the school bus. Chuck Norris used to make such rad posters (see below). He should hang his beard in shame.
When she wasn't working in films, Ms. Bow rented out space on her head for local advertisers.
"Ted, it' a good script, okay! But I don't care what she did, we can't call this movie My Wife is a Huge Bitch. People won't know what you're talking about. Also, I think you've got a lot of anger issues to work out."
Times change, I suppose. Compared to most hip hop videos these days, Lambada dancing looks pretty tame. In fact, according to the Supreme Court, the only dance today that' legally forbidden is the Batdance. |

Oh god, in my art class there was a picture of Frida and I would always comment on how ugly she was. My art teacher would yell at me and say that she was a wonderful artist and I would always respond "I don't care how talented she was, she has a f*****g unibrow and a moustache!
She's the ugliest artist I've ever seen!" What the f**k possessed her to do a self portrait? Let alone, an ACCURATE self portrait.
Pirate, you are dead on
I have that forbidden planet poster hanging in my room. It's pretty sweet.
Is it me, or does Luke in the Return of the Jedi poster look like he should be starring in The Planet of the Apes?
lets do a list...top ten ways the cracked staff has verbally sucked george lucas' c**k. gees we know you like star wars but let it go already. you're just as funny without all the ego stroking.
That Forbidden Planet poster looks just like every other Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror movie poster from that era. Just adjust to the monster, background and dame's haircolor...
UmmWowUm, Yeah, did you even WATCH "Frida"? Cause if you had, or knew even the slightest about her you wouldn't have put that poster on here... wow. what an idiot
f**k YOU!Wow. The "Frida" one was idiotic. The poster is supposed to look like one of her paintings. Do some research PLEASE. OMG.
PaperPlasticBatman wearing a red suit?? Where the hell did THAT poster come from?
kelpsoupLol at forbidden planet. robbie the robot.loool
LOLSeisei sucks dick
Emo boyHaha, I agree with G-Unit.
That's amazing.
Dude, you've never seen Frida Kahlo's artwork? She's like only the most overexposed artist of all f*****g time. What rock have you been hiding under?
whatevsNever mind, I just read the IMDB synopsis. It's too terrible for me to sit through. The poster is actually a good representation of just how awful I'm assuming that movie is.
G-unitI think I need to see 'A Night in Heaven' because the poster is so awesomely cheesy. Who can resist a tagline like that?
