We all love the amazing work that comes out of the Alamo Drafthouse’s collectible art boutique Mondo. Well last night a Mondo Mystery Movie night was held, the session sold out in several minutes. The film they showed? None other than JURASSIC PARK!
The film was shown in a 35mm print, and FX artist Phil Tippett was in attendance. Of course to go with that, a brand new print was on display (below) by artist Aaron Horkey. It showcases the final moments of the film, featuring everyone’s favourite the T-Rex.
Here is an excerpt from the press release:
For a generation of moviegoers seeing Jurassic Park in theaters was a momentous event and one that engrained clear memories of seeing dinosaurs walk the Earth once again. “Jurassic Park is one of Mondo’s biggest series yet. Along with Star Wars and Star Trek, we’ve seen an equal level of excitement amongst artists to take on this seminal film. We’re incredibly excited about Aaron Horkey’s poster and what’s to come,” said Mondo Creative Director Justin Ishmael.
The Jurassic Park poster series will continue with world-renowned artists rendering their vision of the classic film. A second print is scheduled to be available for online sale timed to the release of the Jurassic Park Ultimate Trilogy on Blu-ray on October 25, 2011.
The Jurassic Park Ultimate Trilogy arrives on Blu-ray for the first time ever with the groundbreaking films remastered in flawless high definition and hours of bonus features, including an all-new, six-part documentary called Return to Jurassic Park.
How exciting is that? I know you can’t wait for JURASSIC PARK to hit Blu-ray, you can pre-order that baby HERE.
