(Awesome "They Live" Cosplay I spotted at a Horror Con)
Some of the my favorite websites to check out each morning when I'm killing time before my work day officially starts are sites such as Reelizer or Mondo to see what New Posters for Old Movies that have been created by some of most talented Artist in the Game!
Most of these Posters blow whatever art the studio decided to use to market their film out of the Water. Some of these poster are made for limited or special engagement movie screening, and have also become highly sought after on websites such as Mondo or Ebay.
One of my favorite examples of this Poster trend has been the recent art created for John Carpenter's Cult Classic "They Live", since the plot of the movie dealt with an Alien Takeover via Propaganda and Subliminal Messages it isn't any wonder why this Film would be a natural fit when comes to this sort treatment. Here are some of the best "They Live" inspired posters I came across in my searches, followed by some "They Live" shirts you can currently Consume!
