Hollywood's reach into the realm of pop culture is massive and the prevalence of alternative movie posters -- currently gaining popularity on the web -- is a testament to this fact.
Movie poster art can be a difficult undertaking requiring careful creativity to catch a viewer's attention but whenever it's done right, it leaves a lasting impression upon an audience. Sometimes these posters are actually released by famed studios themselves but sometimes a fanbase takes it upon itself to create their very own examples of movie poster prints.
The creativity displayed in these alternative movie posters demonstrates the lasting impact that films have on artists and designers. These remixed, re-interpreted and re-imagined movie posters cast an all new and creative light on cinematic classics.
