Canada, 2002
Director: David Cronenberg
Starring: Ralph Fiennes, Miranda Richardson, Gabriel Byrne, Lynn Redgrave
I think the Japanese must have a special love for David Cronenberg, as they often produce top-notch posters for his films. As far as I can tell this poster is unique to the Japanese release, and imho is far superior to the western posters. For more awesome Cronenberg posters, check out Naked Lunch, Scanners, and Existenz.
Glad to see another post! I always felt that at least some Japanese directors must really like Cronenberg. Especially people like Miike at his more bizare and definitely Tsukamoto. I imagine the fanbase is pretty strong there!
ReplyDeleteFor sure, a certain scene from Gozu springs to mind. Which if you've seen it, you'll never forget ;)
