Polish movie posters can be pretty surreal often having little to do with the film itself. Check some out (the one for the Terror of Mechagodzilla stands out in the wtf dept):

And on a related note, here are some nifty hand painted posters from Ghana.

Great Googly-Moogly!
And did you notice, in the one G poster, he was breathing fire from his nose?

Dang -- those Ghana posters almost made "Anaconda" and "Sleepwalkers" look good.

Holy cow Revenge of the Pink Panther looks like some beserk Sly Stallone vechicle.
Edit and Romancing the Stone like an infamous banned jungle cannibal pic.

Hats off, those posters are amazing! Sure they make some movies look far better than they are, but, hey, that's what they are suppossed to do.
And it's true, somehow the ones for family-friendly films are the most disturbing... |

Just clicked throught to the main site. WOW those mothers are expensive. the cheapest one i saw was 70 bucks and saw some for almost 500. i hope thats polish money. I would have loved to get a few of those for some interesting decoration but think it will be much cheaper to just use it as a new avatar site.
