MURDERS BY STRANGLING ON ITALIAN MOVIE POSTERS (1963-1975) - HALLOWEEN SPECIAL (Part 1/10)

To celebrate Halloween, I thought we would not simply list some horror movies but how Horror and crime movies celebrated and released at this time of the year also can be sources of beauty and wonders through the incredible movie posters printed.

Among those, the most stunning movie posters for the Crime/Horror genres come from Italy where the local Artists have a long tradition of depicting vivid and gruesome scenes of terror yet with sublime beauty and rich colors

This 10 Part Blog has curated a selection of many Italian movie posters from the vaults of ILLUSTRACTION GALLERY split in themes.

The first one focuses on the very large number of movie posters using strangling as the key visual feature to advertise those movies.

While knives, axes and razors also also used (see Parts 4 and 8), bare hand murders are THE most common technique used as you can 'enjoy' on the curated selection above (Click on each image for details to see the movie titles and the names of the various Artists).

The Godfather(1972)

Dir.Francis Ford Coppola

The Godfather "Don" Vito Corleone is the head of the Corleone mafia family in New York. He is at the event of his daughter's wedding. Michael, Vito's youngest son and a decorated WW II Marine is also present at the wedding. Michael seems to be uninterested in being a part of the family business. Vito is a powerful man, and is kind to all those who give him respect but is ruthless against those who do not. But when a powerful and treacherous rival wants to sell drugs and needs the Don's influence for the same, Vito refuses to do it. What follows is a clash between Vito's fading old values and the new ways which may cause Michael to do the thing he was most reluctant in doing and wage a mob war against all the other mafia families which could tear the Corleone family apart.
