We like a movie poster design to be different and original. Anything that breaks from the usual contractual rules to show floating heads and a list of cast names is welcome. But the latest promotional piece for the upcoming adaptation of Stephen King's The Monkey is very odd indeed.
Resembling a retro editorial print ad, the poster tells rather than shows. That breaks another fundamental rule, but strangely it works, creating curiosity about the film looks like (see our pick of the best movie posters for more inspiration).
