HALLOWEEN

Hungarian Poster (22.25" x 32") Signed by Director John Carpenter
Very Fine+ Folded; Artwork by Laszlo Balkay
Compass International, 1978

This poster is from the film's first release in Hungary in 1983 and features sophisticated custom artwork from Hungarian artist Laszlo Balkay. Many movie posters from Hungary during this time did not survive, making this piece even more exceptional. Signed by John Carpenter at Texas Frightmare Weekend (Dallas, TX) in 2023. From a Private Collector.

This signed poster from John Carpenter's horror classic features very stylized graphics that are completely different from most other posters on this title. This example is folded and exhibits only one pinhole and small creases on the lower left corner.

John Carpenter's visceral horror film not only started a hugely successful franchise, it also massively popularised and evolved the slasher genre. Few cinematic stalker-killers have the same impact and endurance as the white-masked Michael Myers.
