If you weren't fortunate enough to see these films in theaters, at least you get to look at these spiffy movie poster re-imaginings by Ridd Sorensen.
Ridd Sorensen's collection of iconic '70s and '80s film posters are very simple and clean, but they speak volumes of the plot of each respective film. My favorite part about these posters, though, has got to be the quotes Sorensen uses as tag lines for each of the films. If I saw the words "Now get your ass to Mars" on a movie poster, I'd totally watch that film on opening day.
Among the films featured in this collection of movie poster remixes are Blade Runner, Cobra, Rambo, RoboCop, Total Recall, The Thing, Taxi Driver, Back to the Future and Apocalypse Now.
