Halloween Poster Illustration of the Day - Satan's Deadly Brides

Here's another poster done up for last year's Halloween party. It's an homage to all of those great 1970s "Satanic cult - Witches coven" type horror movies that were all the rage back then.

You know classics like The Devil's Rain (reviewed in a previous blog), Dracula AD 1972, The Wicker Man (original version please), Manos:The Hands of Fate and Simon King of the Witches (reviewed in a previous blog)

I did the entire artwork in pencil. I used Prismacolor pencils to colour in the picture. I like the Prismacolor brand of pencils for their flexibility and colorful richness.

Halloween Poster Illustration of the Day

Ah yes, this drawing was used for last year's Halloween party. I was asked to create a series of old style horror movie posters to help decorate the party. I created five or six posters each being a nod toward different genres of the B-horror film, such as the haunted house, sea monsters, Draculas, etc.

This poster is a tribute to the lovable Shatner-mask wearing murder machine known as Michael Myers. This Michael Myers is one wack character. The dude just won't stay dead!

He was shot up by a bunch of bullets and fell off a second story balcony but managed to escape at the end of the original Halloween.

Then he was blow'd up real good at the end of Halloween II.

But thanks to the Satanic evil known as Hollywood accountants Mr. Myers managed to come back for many more pictures.

Michael Myers was finally beheaded by Jamie Lee Curtis in fantastic H20, but somehow was brought back for the campy Resurrection. You know the movie about a reality show set in the Myers house and...um...who the really hell cares...

Any-hoo, you can't keep a good killer down. Rob Zombie successfully brought him back in the 2007 remake and bringing back again in the upcoming H2.
