60 Extremely Creative Movie Posters

60 Extremely Creative Movie PostersIn this post I will present you a showcase of 60 creative movie posters. I came across many sites and found very useful information and gathered all here. So, almost everything has a different colors, style, genre and graphical approach. Basically a film poster is a poster used to advertise a film. There may be several versions for one film, with variations in regards to size, content and country of production of the poster. It usually contains an image with text, though this has evolved over time from image-free bill posters through to the highly visual digital productions of today.

Nowadays there are many posters, but most of them do not attract people. So clearly, the poster design is one of the most important things in advertising films, but nothing outweighs their ingenuity and creativity that attracts many people.

    Hmmm, most are not creative (as others have noted)… but there are plenty of movies I hadn’t heard of. So, while it is somewhat misleading, I found the information useful.

    This is not a list of extremely creative movie posters.
    This is a list of movie posters from the last two years.

    Believe it or not, there were creative posters in the 60′s, 70′s, 80′s, etc. and even before.

    What the hell, all they did was post up all the movie posters of the films coming out in the past few years. Personally, I think that Reefer Madness had a good one.

    There’s a ton of movie posters more creative than these. If anything they may be striking, but not very creative. You need to include classic movies to this list. Some of those painted posters were way more creative than any of these.

    Wow! A big thanks for sharing this creative posting with us. I think all the movie posters look great. They are all winning designs. I think the movie posters are unique. Each poster looks different from the rest. They are so good that they can get attention from anyone. They somehow beat my interest in Groupon and its clone sites.

    Robin Hood movie is quite good, a bit more historically accurate in my opinion.`.

    “Nice looking” and “creative” are completely different things. Most of the posters here do fall under the first category, but very few under the latter. Changing the name of the article would be very appropriate, so it won’t be as misleading as it is right now.

    Im not really impress…
    look at the “Disaster movier” poster, and the “girl friend experience”, “Humboldt County” …
    that’s not “extremely creative” …

    you should look at it critically…

    Sorry, but the post should of been titled ’60 movie posters for new and recent films’, was hoping to see something new here – rather than what’s been hanging on my local cinema’s walls these last 12 months or so.

    Must try harder!

      Excellent point. We can go back 50 years and still find “extremely creative” movie posters. It’s not a new thing.

    Who qualified these as “extremely creative”?

    Many of them are simple main-character-meets-setting-plus-title-art. Can someone tell me what’s “extreme” or “creative” about that?

    An inherently creative concept for a movie does not an “extremely creative” movie-poster make. The creativity is in how the movie concept is applied to a poster. Here, I see mostly mediocre branding and blockbuster pablum.

    I’ll narrow this down to a truly “creative” list:
    1, 6, 7, 12, 13, 14, 20, 27, 28, 32, 34, 40, 42 and 46.

    Whittling down the list from 60 to 13? Yes, especially when you consider that items 2, 4, 8, 9, 43, 47 and 48 (to name just a few) required nothing more than the movie itself to come up with the poster. Extremely creative? Rubbish.

    I was unimpressed by most of these. I thought Avatar’s poster was bland, boring, and cliche. Much like the movie itself. And several of the others were not even close to inspiring or even good. Only a handful were worth looking at. Disappointing.

    The fact that you included the Twilight poster discredits any chance this list had of being a good list.

    A lot of good posters there. Sadly, with some of the movie, the work put into a good poster didn’t work so well with making the movie itself good. And some good movies have only middlin’ posters.

    I’m disappointed all of these posters are from popular movies of the last two or three years. There are some very creative poster designs throughout movie history. Like Pulp Fiction, Clockwork Orange, E.T. , 300, Metropolis, Kabaret… the list goes on.

    Avatar? Really? I liked the movie, but how many countless movie posters out there have an image of a face half lost in shadow as the focus..

    Did you actually research this at all, or just choose recently released posters at random? Most of these are completely unremarkable. If you want to see a showcase of truly inspiring one sheets, check out the Auteurs list for 2009: http://www.theauteurs.com/notebook/posts/1366

    Cloverfield still has to be my favorite of the bunch. It did such a great job up building up the suspense for the movie. Just wish the movie could have lived up to the poster!

    I think it’s good to bring back these movie posters for us to take a look again mainly because most of their lifespan are only few weeks equal to the showing period.

    Thanks.
