Late Nite Grindhouse: An Exclusive Print Will Be Available For ‘RE-ANIMATOR’

Something Andy and I have long discussed is the possibility of having posters for the Late Nite Grindhouse shows each month.  Turning around a new and exciting image each month though would be almost as hard as attaining some of the rare 35mm prints Andy searches for each month.  Not to mention trying to gauge an audience’s interest in a particular film to justify printing and the time spent designing  may not always pay off.  But when it was announced that our June show was going to be Re-Animator, I knew this was going to be the best oppurtunity to offer our amazing followers something special.  I’m very pleased and proud to announce that I designed a limited edition print that will be for sale on June 7 & 8.  With the help of fellow artist and Late Nite Grindhouse attendee Tom Cline, we were able to silk-screen a run of 50 prints that will be for sale during the show.  Once those 50 are gone there are NO MORE.  As this article is being written, the screens we used for printing have already been destroyed.  So that attendees on both Friday and Saturday night have an equal chance to purchase one, we are setting aside 25 prints for each night to be fair.  If we have some left over from Friday night’s show those will be added to the pile on sale for Saturday.  Each two color screen print (the white paper makes it three colors technically speaking) will be numbered and signed individually.  The image is printed on an acid-free, cotton, heavy weight, print paper and measures at 14×20 with a print area of 13×19.  These prints will be sold for $20 each, and we will accept either cash or credit – sorry, no checks.  I’m a HUGE fan of Re-Animator and so it brought me great joy to design this with one of the most iconic scenes in the film serving as my inspiration – with my own personal twist on it.  I hope you guys like it.  If this goes well, hopefully you will see more posters for some of the bigger known titles we have lined up in the future.  Below you will find the full image (prior to being numbered, signed, and trimmed) along with a few close-ups.  Late Nite Grindhouse is such a special and unique program to be featured in St. Louis and I hope that this is just another element that excites fans to come each and every month.  Hope to see you all in two weeks at the Hi-Pointe Theatre for a rare 35mm screening of Re-Animator!
