Polish and Czech Hitchcock posters

There’s something wonderfully surreal and slightly unsettling about many of the Czech and Polish Hitchcock film posters.

Czech Hitchcock - The Birds

Czech Hitchcock - Psycho

Czech Hitchcock - Rear Window

Czech Hitchcock - The Birds + Pyscho
(The Birds & Psycho)

Polish Hitchcock - Frenzy
(Frenzy)

Polish Hitchcock - The Birds

Polish Hitchcock - Rebecca

Polish Hitchcock - Vertigo
(Vertigo)

Polish Hitchcock - Family Plot

Polish Hitchcock - film festival

To my mind, they seem to generate the same uneasy feeling that Tom Adams’ artwork for his series of Agatha Christie book covers do. As a child, these book covers used to give me the heebie-jeebies!

  1. I just wanted to say that I love these posters more than any posters I’ve ever seen, and I was wondering (I don’t know how you’d know this) how I could possibly print the biggest sizes on Flickr– or! or! I mean… ugh, where can I get these anywhere?

  2. For the first one they used a paiting by Max Ernst. I remember I saw it at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venezia

  3. Wow those posters are very cool. It would be a great conversation piece to have one of those on the wall.
