Favorite Poster Work Of 2012
The horror genre remains one of the last genres to utilize creative poster design, while others simply crank out Vanity Fair type photo shoots generically repeated month after month. While I don’t agree with all of these movies, I’ve chosen some of my favorite horror movie posters from this year for your enjoyment!
Favorite Trailer Of 2012
For me, a perfect trailer melds enough hype-creating material with catchy tunage, bringing a truly teaser-tastic short marketing device which makes us want to see the film in question. This year, no trailer has done that like Fede Alvarez’s Evil Dead remake, mainly because this is the first time I’ve been giddy and excited for a Hollywood remake in years! Not only are Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell closely involved as producers to ensure their property is in the best of hands, but their best trailer depicts everything us horror fans love and need to see in an Evil Dead remake – gore, guts, satanic demons, curses, and Raimi’s tree rape. Check out the red-band trailer and you’ll understand.
As for my most anticipated horror films of 2013, I haven’t listed them here, but instead offer a double-loaded list of upcoming horror lore worth getting excited over, which my weekly partner in crime Remy Carreiro helped me out with. Sure, you have to click a link to get there, but who can argue with two for the price of one? We’ll make sure the right films are blips on your radar come 2013.
Be sure to check back for my Bottom 10 Horror Films Of 2012, which I’ll be releasing in the days to come. Can’t have a “Best of” without a “Worst of,” right people?
So horror fans, how did I do? Which films do you think I unfairly snubbed from top film contention, and which films on my list would you remove them for? Opinions are opinions, and I’d love to hear yours as well! Feel free to let me know your favorite horror films of the year in the Comments section!
