Ghanavision

Compiled and published by prolific Berlin studio Bongoût, this book offers an insight into a world of film posters as different from formulaic Hollywood Rom-Com campaigns as possible.

The styles vary depending on the artist but the levels of blood and decapitation remain terrifyingly consistent throughout.
