We’ve seen many-a-poster for Universal’s long-awaited THE WOLFMAN, but this is perhaps the coolest. CHUD just premiered this very special one-sheet you see above (click on it to see the whole thing).
The art was done by Basil Gogos, who is probably most notable for creating the covers for James Warren and Forrest J Ackerman’s “Famous Monsters of Filmland” magazine in the 60s. In the past 50 years, Mr. Gogos has created haunting portraits of such classic Universal creatures as The Creature from the Black Lagoon, Dracula, The Mummy, Frankenstein’s monster and The Phantom of the Opera. With this limited-edition work commissioned by Universal for The Wolfman, Mr. Gogos helps Universal bring the myth of a cursed man back to its legendary origins.
Also, if you want to win a signed copy of the limited edition Wolfman print, head on over to THE WOLFMAN’s official Facebook page to enter the Wolfman Full Moon Sweepstakes.
THE WOLFMAN comes out on FEBRUARY 12th.
