Hey guys, I wonder if anyone else has had this problem.

You see, I have a bunch of horror posters i want framed badly, House of 1000 Corpses, Bride of Chucky, Citizen Toxie... to name a few.

Now, it seems that every frame store I see carried this default size of 24 x 36 inches... now here's the problem.

The standard movie poster seems to be 39 x 26, which is a few inches bigger than the frames that are available.

Does anyone know where I can get frames that will fit movie posters? Anyone else have this problem? Help please!!!

oh, and I know I can get them custom framed, but that costs would cost me my left nut!

I had this problem for the longest time as well until one day I just happened to walk into a Suncoast video store to look for action figures, and by complete luck I saw they carry 27" x 40" black poster frames for only $20. And to top it off they load from the back with little tabs like a picture frame, so it's easy unlike some other more expensive frames. Here is there website so you can find a store near you.

Suncoast (http://www.suncoast.com/)

BTW the site doesn't list the frames, so you should call and make sure they carry them before heading out. Sometimes what a store carries in San Diego, CA, they don't carry elsewhere.

I don't have one near me (northeast), but I'm gonna try that link later and see if I can order them online. Thanks for the link though!
