BEST OF THE BILLBOARDS


Celebrating the best, worst and weirdest movie posters out there
WORDS ABIGAIL CHANDLER

VIVARIUM
This is a weird, gorgeous puzzle-box of a poster, and a perfect summing-up of the film the poster is promoting. It is both twee and
deeply unsettling, and more sinister the more you look at it (which we have... alot...). The poster raises so many questions. Who is
that woman in the doorway of the top face of the house? Why does Jesse Eisenberg have a spade? This, ladies and gentlemen, is
how to do a poster.

BILL AND TED
FACE THE MUSIC
Thanks to the colour choice, you
could mistakenly think that a
Doctor Who film is on its way...

SPIRAL
Spiral is a spin off from the
Saw franchise. It could (perhaps
should) be a dumb and schlocky
poster. Instead it looks like a
prestige crime thriller. Intriguing.

THE NEW MUTANTS
The New Mutants is finally
