Just when you thought there was nothing left to say about SEIZURE, along comes Stephen Romano with this amazing custom poster for the film. Here's what he's got to say about how Oliver Stone's 1974 directorial debut influenced the design of the poster:
The poster you see ... is based on Oliver Stone’s original vision. It is created, obviously, in the style of 70s Amicus and Hammer films, though the lower-budget Queen was far more visionary. The elaborate portrait approach allowed me to really present the souls of the characters — and the soul of the film itself. Compared to other freshman moviemaking efforts such as Night of the Living Dead and Halloween, Ollie’s maiden voyage is something of a unique marvel: creepy, uncompromising “intellectual horror” on a shoestring. Seek it out. It’s truly worth the effort.You can read more of Romano's thoughts on SEIZURE at Dread Central.
