This art form was at its peak during the 1980s and 1990s, commonly referred to as the “Golden Age of Movie Posters”. During this time, artists would let their imagination run wild in order to create posters that would never fail to draw audiences to Ghana’s dilapidated cinema halls, so they used their fantasy to add scenes and characters that didn’t even exist in the original movie. The tradition still survives because of its extremely unique entertainment value. Scroll down to see some of the best (worst?) examples!

Bizarre is the only word to describe.
I would feel so robbed, if I had seen the posters first. After these the movies are sort of a letdown. 😆
Mission Imposible, Tom Cruise looks like Bruce Lee on steroids.

Thanks, i hate it.
Pure art, deserves better recognition.
The Godfather… ain’t exactly wrong.
It’s much more likely that Land Lord is outsourcing his graphics, and I have to say, they have improved.
Woah! Lola Bunny needs some sleep
Looks like: Get a film title, google it, paint the pictures you find. Add some guns. Perfect.
