While browsing the fantastic Public Domain images at Northwestern University Library (as one does) I came upon this eerie poster.
Eerie alright. Eerie, and somehow… familiar. Those beady eyes… that lurking menace… the very chill of fear in your bones…
Not exactly oozing the ol’ warm fuzzy friendly tonight, are we. Okay sure, two out of three. But still.
Why is Darth Vader watching me?
You couldn’t see Darth’s eyes…so its not him. Some how those eye look eerily familiar…..
Hope you are going to tell us who it is :-)
Has no-one clicked on the Question Mark?
Yes, me me, I did (before I read your comment). Trouble is, I wish I hadn’t. How am I going to sleep tonight?
My comment referred to the ? photo. This one, not so much. But its tameness is of course relative to the ? photo.
Beautiful poster. They don’t make ’em like that anymore. I can hear a client now:
“Can you get rid of that vertical bar and centre the head? Make the yellow teal instead, I don’t like yellow. Can we make the font more ‘scary’? Put this tagline, five logos and a barcode at the bottom. When you’ve finished make sure I get the Photoshop files, I might want to do a few changes of my own later.”
Sigh …
He was watching me? He better watch out, I need to make chili and I’m all out of rabbit.
Glitch is Luke’s father?
I saw the ?…but didn’t think anything about it….damn!! Your Photoshop work?
Make way for Dark Helmet!
Fokes still dont blieve Glitch got glowin red eyes, do they Revrend?
No one believes me Joey. Everyone keeps talking about this ‘Photoshop’ thing? What do they mean? I thought a photo shop was where you got your film developed.
