Framed Vintage Zombie Movie Posters

In the 1950s, the zombie movie really started to come into its own, and much of the most renowned framed vintage zombie movie wall art comes from this decade. These typically feature a bright background with the title in red text that appears to drip, reminiscent of dripping blood. “I Drink Your Blood” and “I Bury the Living” are examples of this style. Occasionally film posters were less explicit and used yellow text that appeared to quiver, which can be seen in “Brain Eaters.”

Later zombie movies would often take some stylistic inspiration from previous eras while adding a twist from their own time. For instance, 1979’s “Zombie The Dead Are Among Us!” uses the bold red text from the 1950s, but without the dripping effect. Also, the featured image is gorier than would have been acceptable in previous decades.
