Cool Stuff: Alamo’s The Thing, Planet of the Apes, The Car Movie Posters

We’ve written about the Alamo Drafthouse’s limited edition movie posters in the past, and I even have a couple hanging proudly on my walls. Last week Mondo Tees released the first two posters commissioned for their Spring Big Screen Sci-Fi Classics series. The King Kong and 2001: A Space Odyssey posters sold out in record time after we posted them in Cool Stuff.

The next in the series is John Carpenter’s The Thing, a poster created by Tyler Stout (who we’ve also written about in the past). A 5 color sikscreen measuring 24×36, with the red glowing in the dark! Every character infected by The Thing has RED EYES! How cool is that? Print is available for $30 on Mondotees and is limited to only 100, so act fast.

    Stout’s poster for The Thing is incredible. I must buy it. Is it just me or does the regular version look better than the metallic variant? I’m sure the silver and gold looks much better in person.

    can we get a high(er) res version of the outstanding one for The Thing (for windows background purposes)? Something along the lines of the resolution of the two closeups, but…the whole thing, if you catch my drift :)

    I was up late this morning so I was able to snag the metallic versions of The Thing and the Plantet Of The Apes.

    Mondotees has super fast shipping, they should be on the wall by the weekend.
