Have you ever been tempted to watch a movie solely because of its tasteful and enticing poster? If you have, then I bet it wasn\u2019t due to one of these movie posters. Without further adieu, I present to you The Worst Movie Posters Ever Conceived:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Mission Impossible from Ghana<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

I really hate to criticize something that a talented person clearly put a lot of hard work and effort into. Jeez, who am I kidding? I love this poster. Maybe you don\u2019t remember seeing this movie poster back in the 90’s unless you lived in Ghana at the time. It seems that movie theaters in Ghana can\u2019t use official Hollywood posters for some possibly bizarre and complicated reason I can\u2019t be bothered to research. So what do the mad African geniuses do? They create this masterpiece.<\/p>\n

The Unfathomable Movie Poster<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

In your wildest imagination, can you have even guess what this film is about? One of the jobs of the movie poster is to give us a tantalizing glimpse at the film’s action. That’s what makes us part with our cash to see it. That mindset wasn’t really used here, was it?<\/p>\n

The MASH Poster<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

Ah, Mash. The show that lasted longer than the war it was based on. The classic song from MASH tells us so many profound things about life. Life? Hey, I can take it or leave it as I please. The brains behind this operation made a very strange decision. When deciding on how to tempt audiences into cinemas to see their movie, they went with the idea of joining hands and legs together (and then sticking an army helmet on it). Brilliant!<\/p>\n

The Celebrity Welding Experiment Poster<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

So you’ve got a film featuring Harrison Ford and Brendan Fraser in it. Well done. You probably aren\u2019t going to mess it up and create a crappy movie, right? Oh well. At least you won\u2019t mess up the movie posters, right? The first step to making something as bad as this is to ask these stars to make the ugliest expressions possible. Come on, Harrison! Can\u2019t you at least try to look a bit more miserable and angry? Then, you weld the two together with some clumsy Photoshop skills.<\/p>\n

The Wooden Tom Hanks Poster<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

This was a great movie, but can anyone explain to me why Tom Hanks looks like Pinocchio in this poster? Is it a real photo of him or did they draw his picture? Either way, something strange is happening here.<\/p>\n

The Rock and Roll Dracula Poster<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

The existence of this fantastic looking film seems to have eluded me entirely before today. Just 10 seconds ago, I was entirely unaware of its existence (yes, I do type very fast, thank you). The irresistible idea behind this work of undoubted cinematic genius is a rock n roll Dracula movie \u2013 the world\u2019s first. I’m sure you can scarcely believe it, right? The film features such scary dudes as Ringo Starr and Harry Nilsson. It also has the unforgettable catchphrase Bite It! Something this weird was either going to be brilliant or absolutely bloody awful.<\/p>\n

The 30 Second Photoshop Poster<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

You now know that I\u2019m a lightning fast typing fiend. However, I must confess that I have never used Photoshop. Not even once. Actually, maybe once but the point is that I have no idea how to use it in a professional sense. Neither does the person who created this poster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
