Aug 16 2006Black Dahlia Posters Are Varied
The hype machine for Brian De Palma's long-threatened Black Dahlia continues to inspire new levels of indifference. We were subjected to the trailer just a bit ago and before we could even ask for another slap in the face, we now have posters. The IMP Awards website has posted a series of poster designs, each one crummier than the next. The Photoshopped montage of the actors' faces really captures a certain feeling of "It's no coincidence that this looks like a DVD cover already." Like love, Josh Hartnett's cut-and-pasted head is also a universal language. To be fair, the one pictured above may be the best of the lot, however my patriotism prevents me from condoning something so French.
Beyond the cut lies more.

someone must have gotten really bored at the office one day and mass produced a bunch of crummy posters.

I loved the book. I hate, hate, hate Brian De Palma though.
