awesome movie poster friday - the VIRAL edition!

Overnight, Satan choo choo-ed the Flu Express from my sinuses to my lungs, which is fine because that's usually the last stop it makes before either wellness or death. To celebrate, I thought AMPF would be a lovely place to feature movies that generally make me want to take a Silkwood shower and hermetically seal myself away from the world.

In related news, is that actually a picture of Jessica Biel in Texas Chainsaw Massacre on that poster for Cabin Fever?

  1. When the post-apocalypse comes, I want to dress like Charlton Heston at the end of The Omega Man.

  2. I really enjoyed The Crazies reboot, it's one of the only remakes (in recent memory) I'd actually care to watch again.

  4. You'd think Marilyn Chambers name would have been even bigger on the Rabid posters....

  5. Is that Jessica Biel in the Cabin Fever poster? i swear it is. That looks like her character from TCM.

  6. Strange Kid, I liked it a lot, too. More than the original, even.

  9. That 28 Weeks Later poster brings back memories from when I was a promotions coordinator for Fox Atomic.

    The Shivers posters are by far my favourite.

  11. "It's almost dark...they'll be waking up soon!" Warms my heart to see THE OMEGA MAN on Final Girl. If the worst ever happens, I'll look to Chuck H (and Snake Plissken) to light my way.

  12. Love that Italian poster for SHIVERS that looks like something stuck between a 1950's era space-invader flick and the ultimate pulp novel cover. Not a single depiction of the bathtub sequence manages to look like Barbara Steele.
