It's a nod to Fairey, obviously. The entire color scheme, layout...all very Obey. Would probably look great on a wall with some Faireys.

I could be way off on my interpretation just what I thought when I first saw it.
When I'm done ranting about elite power that rules the planet under a totalitarian government that uses the media to keep people stupid, my throat gets parched. That's why I drink Orange Drink. - BH

Yeah, I actually just realized the "zombies" in the background are actually The Fog lepers. It's a collection of John Carpenter film elements... probably because John Carpenter is this years' Festival of Fear guest of honour.Kramerica wrote:I thought it was kind of a take on a few different films.

It looks like Michael Meyers couldnt find a William Shatner mask and had to settle for Ryan Gosling. Poster is still awesome though.

This is just too cool! I love everything John Carpenter did in the 80s and PCC has been lights out this year. Add GID ...
