There is an interesting contest<\/a> that unfortunately ends today where people can submit their ideas for a film poster for a movie that never existed, but models itself as a parody on B movies.<\/p>\n

JohnLennon15 submitted a poster for a fake film titled “I Married Lizzie Borden.” It is pretty imaginative and well done (see below). I think it might win as it seems to me to be the best of the entries. <\/a><\/p>\n

Here are the rules:<\/p>\n

Yes, it’s B-Movie time! Your goal? To create a convincing poster for one of those enjoyable B-Movies (or lower down the alphabet).<\/p>\n

Sound’s simple? Well, we’re going to make it even more challenging! Your goal is NOT to mock films, not to parody them – your goal is to take a randomly generated B-Movie title and make a poster that is as believable as possible for the movie you’ve imagined!<\/p>\n

Here’s what you do!<\/p>\n

* Go to the B-Movie Generator and generate a title you want to do the poster of. <\/p>\n

Now, when you do this poster, you also have to include the following on your entry at the site it’s hosted at:<\/p>\n

* The year it was made.
\n * A summary of the plot and characters.
\n * Any other extra detail to make it more believable. <\/p>\n

So if your fake picture is from the 70’s, the poster is going to be in a different style than say, the 90’s or the 50’s. This also gives you a chance to find a style that fits your artistic skills and interests, from the cut-and-paste oddness of grindhouse posters to some of the strange and lush art of the 70’s and more!<\/p>\n

A few resources to help those of you looking to do a blast from the past:<\/p>\n

* Some 1970’s posters.
\n * Some 1960’s posters.
\n * Some 1950’s drive in posters. <\/p>\n

So go on, let’s see what kind of wonderfully cheese films you can create – that never were. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
