| Anonymous Feb 15 06:13:20am I guess Pazuzu likes to play the "Interrupting Starfish" joke. |
| Dave C Sep 03 02:52:46am Based on a true story? Yeh I think I saw it |
| M Sep 02 06:06:16am What is Sam Raimi's fascination with things coming out of people's mouths? |
| butthead Aug 31 01:11:31pm link |
| Alien May 22 03:01:37am Facehugger? LOL |
| Alice C May 21 05:44:50am Has anyone noticed you can see the little finger of the hand on her face? Did someone forget to edit that out?! |
| Look closer May 10 10:28:36am Nice... |
| Hugo Hernandez May 08 10:37:23pm Hey, didn't you guys read "SAM RAIMI PRESENTS" on top of the name??? Doesn't that alone justify all the over-the-top-ness here? And look at the talent. I don't think this is a generic horror show. The horizontal cross shape (the I is the arms)isn't a terrible touch, either. |
| Devil inside... and that SUCKED May 08 04:23:44am I agree with Patwell, this looks like the devil inside and they really screwed people over with that movie, it should never have been a major release but the thing played out like one big film trailer rather than an actual film so there was LOTS to market it on, rather than anything of substance. Its like serving some one a crap meal we may pay for it but WONT eat there again! So by visual association i'm not going to give this one the time of day. |
| BitterLemon® May 08 12:02:30am Oh, makes me want a scalp massage. |
| Rip Off May 07 09:09:16pm I liked this better when it was called Dementium 2 link |
| CloneStamp Wars May 07 01:45:44pm True story, this actually happened to a cousin of mine after eating bad Chinese food. |
| Waqas May 07 10:51:24am This is Dementium with side angle ... |
| mike t May 07 09:47:28am seems like every exorcist movie is based on a true story. makes it irrelevant and not anything new now. It doesnt help sell the movie these days. BUT the poster is pretty awesome and I like it very much so! |
| Noel B. May 07 01:58:56am Looks like the poster of "drag me to hell". |
| Komul May 07 01:09:13am awesome!!!! the best poster for a horror movie in years.... |
| FilmFanatic211 May 06 11:27:43pm This is why its so important to chew your food. |
| Eric S. May 06 08:08:38pm Okay, I'm willing to believe that they didn't intentionally rip this off, but go look up the cover to a game called Dementium 2. Kinda similar. |
| LB May 06 05:56:15pm Awesome! Thinking of using this as my screensaver. Excellent! |
| HannibalLecter May 06 03:31:55pm I agree with the majority of the comments below. I think the image is very striking and very horror movie appropriated. However, that font used in the word "Possession" and the "Based on a true story" tag-line sort of take away some of the power of the poster. But still, quite good art! |
| Dr. Death May 06 12:51:32pm Best poster 2012! |
| Linnea May 06 06:10:47am Why do all excorsist movies have the exact same color treatment and font? |
| J. Warner May 06 01:52:24am Originally titled the much better/descriptive "Dibbuk Box." |
| jingmei May 06 12:13:50am no need to put that tagline kinda like "self-made based on true event" upon such awesomely creepy concept, that's just hilariously self-contradict |
| mehran May 05 01:30:34pm wowwwwwwwwwww. its fake BUT it shows the truth "DARKNESS LIVES INSIDE". GREAT THINKING... HATS OFFF |
| Mihir Shah May 05 11:56:17am scarrrrrrryyyyy...wow :-) |
| El Papa Gallo May 05 10:41:29am I love a good horror poster, specially a twisted one. Nicely Done! |
| Patwell May 05 09:48:29am Extremely generic... the tagline, the "distressed" font, the "Based on a true story" BS... the idea of the hand coming out to representing evil inside her is kind of neat, but heavily reminiscent of such recent films as "The Eye" and its poster, or a scene this reminds me of in "One Missed Call". Not to mention just how much the theme, tagline, and font all call to mind "The Devil Inside" from earlier this year. Maybe that's intentional, since it was a big hit... but the backlash from critics and audiences was huge. That movie is reviled now, and making this one look just like it is probably not a good idea. Of course, I'm sure the movie is, in fact, generic, derivative, and an obvious cash-grab trying to ride on other's success - so maybe this is exactly the poster it deserves. |
| daniel May 05 09:01:27am disgusting but attractive as well. don't like the overused horror font though. and how can this picture be based on a true story??? ;-) |
| Alberto May 05 06:04:30am Creepy, but awesome. It does give a new meaning to the term facepalm. lol :D |
| Chris May 05 04:34:13am nice |
| marcel May 05 03:38:08am 'based on a true story'. sure, scarred slimy monster hands coming out of girls' mouths trying to kill them, happens all the time basically. |
| Anom May 05 02:44:38am Most epic facepalm ever! Haha I like the imagery. |
| Bill May 05 02:10:02am what if that happened with somebody's butt? |
| masters of horror:Seth MacFarlane May 05 02:08:13am hahahaha is this a horror movie or a halucination bit on family guy? |
| Ryan May 05 12:26:07am Terrifying! Very creepy to look at. Very well done. Only thing that looks weird (after i brought myself to look at it again) is the bottom lip, it is photoshopped oddly but is barely noticeable given how shocking the image is. Great job. |
| Felipe May 04 10:41:28pm Definitely a good poster with a strong and well executed concept. Too bad they went for the now-horror-movie-standard Trajan Pro font. |
| I Know It's Early May 04 08:17:37pm I like it. Creepiest of 2012, front runner? |
| muirkirk May 04 07:39:46pm This Ignition formula is getting OLD! |
| Hackney Sack May 04 07:33:51pm I wish this hand was made of shrimp. |
| Sasha May 04 05:50:14pm Based on a true story? …Somehow I doubt that. |
| Thing May 04 04:31:02pm Addams Family Revenge |
| yollma May 04 03:30:56pm Of all the possession/exorcism movie posters, this is one of the creepier and more striking ones... but the concept still feels a bit done-to-death. |
| Garfield May 04 03:24:00pm True Story? Are you kidding me? |
| SUPER May 04 02:38:27pm Holy Sh*t! this is freaky! |
| Bob May 04 02:28:36pm It's somewhat creepy until you notice the 'Based on a true story' line, which just does not work with such an over-the-top image. |
| Dzoch May 04 01:54:02pm Of you cover up the actual hand and just leave the wrist, this has got to be the dirtiest poster ever made. |
| thebutcher May 04 01:51:00pm A desaturated, grungy shot of some weird thing coming out of someone's mouth...for an exorcism movie that's "based on a true story"?... Stop this originality! I can only take so much of new things! |
| Dorian May 04 01:13:40pm aside from obvious comparisons to "devil inside" (in both overall look and copy), the image definitely grabs your attention. still, never hurts to develop your OWN look. |
| ... May 04 12:53:06pm polish rip off. ignition... |
