Film poster Deja vu

Happy New Year!

To kick off proceedings, I explore how promotional material ahead of cinema release are later ripped off.

Before getting to that, let's focus on 'principle'.







The awful Carrie reboot sounds nothing like a preview for Breaking Bad.


'You will know her name' and 'Remember my name'.  Hmmm.

Picture within a figure.





However, my two favourites were both released in 1980 but...


...Friday the 13th came first.

Okay boys and girls, get ready for some absolute beauties.

Out of the Furnace vs The Town



Ghosts of Girlfriends Past vs Pretty Woman



22 Jump Street vs Hot Fuzz



It also appears that Pegg and Frost are spoofing Dirty Harry.


Coriolanus vs A Bronx Tale



Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vs C.H.U.D.



Safe Haven vs The Notebook


Endless Love vs P.S. I Love You



Fifty Shades of Grey vs Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues



I Spit on Your Grave (2010) vs The Burning



Child's Play 2 also deserves a mention.


Vampire Killers (Lesbian Vampire Killers UK) vs Zombieland



James Corden is quoted as declaring it 'a pile of shit'.

Well, I suppose that's one way of putting it.

Over the Top vs Every Which Way But Loose


The Woman In Black vs Stir of Echoes



The Hills Have Eyes (2006) vs Unleashed



Fright Night (2011) vs No Country For Old Men



X: Night of Vengeance vs Secretary


V/H/S vs Visiting Hours (or forgotten 1982 slasher film)



The Ruins vs Hostel


Finally, please stretch imagination muscles to appreciate something completely bizarre.

Love, Rosie vs The Last Exorcism Part II


Rosie turning contortionist to mimic her possessed counterpart, who of course is supposed to represent the number 2?

Coincidence?  Err.
