Wicker & Chainsaw Posters!
by Scott Weinberg | June 14, 2006
Discuss Article
One's a remake of a classic; the other is a prequel to a remake of a classic. Both are horror titles scheduled for later this year, and both now have all-new one-sheets intended to entice you into the multiplexes for some serious jolts. Interested?

Over at JoBlo's you'll find the all-new trailer for Jonathan Liebesman's "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning," which opens in October and promises names like Jordana Brewster, R. Lee Ermey, and (of course) Andrew Bryniarski. Last week JoBlo debuted the poster, so go give it a gander and see what you think.

And when you're done appreciating that creepiness, click on over to IGN FilmForce and grab a peek of the all-new poster for Neil LaBute's "The Wicker Man" remake, which opens in Setember and stars Nicolas Cage, Ellen Burstyn, Leelee Sobieski, and Molly Parker, an actress I have a huge fanboy crush on.

Chainsaw poster= well-composed but very uninspired and dull

Wicker Man poster= just plain bad . . . and an excellent way to drive audiences AWAY.

What do the studios do . . . hire monkeys to do these things?! Or are their focus groups made of clueless morons?

There is a trailer for WickerMan now, Its on youtube.com and the apple quicktime site I believe. It looks worth seeing, just won't be the same tho knowing the spoiler due to the original.

Wow the Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Begining poster looks really good. Very creepy and I am very happy to see Leatherface again. Looks like it will be a promiseing horror film hopefully.

Did anyone else feel like the guy who did the Hostel poster did these two posters?

The Massacre poster looks too much like the poster of the remake from a few years ago. It has the same color scheme as well. Very unimaginative.
The Wicker Man poster looks lame as well and I saw the trailer last week, and it looked like it may have some promise.
