Don’t Panic – Polish poster
Is this really a Polish poster? It's certainly not the sort of imagery that springs to mind when I think of Polish posters. Though I suppose it is well past the golden era for Polish poster art, not to mention it's for a low-budget Mexican slasher.
Godzilla vs. Gigan – Polish poster
A common complaint about Polish and Czech posters is: "What the hell has this got to do with the movie?" To which I must reply: "Who cares?! The design is amazing. And there's multicoloured stuff coming out of Godzilla's mouth. And there's also a bug."
