While already out here in the States, the UK won’t see the awesome The Town That Dreaded Sundown (review) until it hits theaters on April 17th, 2015.
The new horror collaboration from the producers of “American Horror Story” and Paranormal Activity stars Veronica Cartwright, Gary Cole, Denis O’Hare and the late Edward Herrmann, and is directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon.
The UK distributor Metrodome has commissioned an exclusive piece of artwork to produce a limited edition print, by horror poster designer Graham Humphreys to celebrate the film’s release.
Humphreys’ has been a freelance illustrator and poster designer who has been working within the horror industry for more than thirty years, perhaps best remembered for his iconic artwork for the original UK releases of The Evil Dead and A Nightmare On Elm Street, as well as his original artwork for the annual FrightFest horror festival.
Halloween this year will see the publication of a book of Graham’s horror art, entitled ‘Graham Humphreys: Drawing Blood’. The launch will be supported by an exhibition at The Proud Gallery, London.
Graham’s approach to The Town That Dreaded Sundown plays on the film’s retro vibes with nods to both the 70’s cult classic of the same name and the 40’s true life crime spree on which the story took inspiration from.
