Description: Original Folded Theater one sheet (27 x 41 inches) poster sent to film cinemas, in 1990, in envelopes for marketing purposes. Condition is GOOD+ to VERY GOOD or better. An unrestored poster that displays signs of use with good color and an overall, very presentable appearance. It displays well and its "look" is age appropriate. There are light creases, rolled corners, but otherwise the poster is in very nice condition and after simple linen backing would look great! Very gorgeous, sexy and horrific beautiful imagery. FAST & SAFE DELIVERY. 1990. Directed by Philip Ridley. TAGLINES : "It's all part of the American dream" "Sometimes terrible things happen quite naturally" - In the 1950s, a young boy living with his troublesome family in rural USA fantasizes that a neighboring widow is actually a vampire, responsible for a number of disappearances in the area.

After his father tells him stories of vampires, he becomes convinced that the widow up the road is a vampire, and tries to find ways of discouraging his brother from seeing her. He must deal with an abusive mother, a father with a charge of molestation, a band of youths creating havoc, and an unforgiving environment in general. CAST includes Viggo Mortensen, Lindsay Duncan, Jeremy Cooper, Sheila Moore, David Longworth, Duncan Fraser, David Bloom, Guy Buller, Joyce Robbins, Jacqueline Robbins. QUOTES OF NOTE : by character Dolphin Blue : "It's all so horrible you know, the nightmare of childhood. And it only gets worse. One day you'll wake up, and you'll be past it. Your beautiful skin will wrinkle and shrivel up, you'll lose your hair, your sight, your memory. Your blood will thicken, teeth turn yellow and loose. You will start to stink and fart and all your friends will be dead. You'll succumb to arthritis, angina, senile dementia, you'll piss yourself, shit yourself, drool at the mouth. Just pray that when this happens you've got someone to love you, because if you're loved you'll still be young." VIEWER COMMENT : "Sometimes Terrible Things Happen Quite Naturally. At times this cruel, bizarre, yet, striking film with its hypnotic cinematography of vast, golden wheat fields and lonely, bleak farmhouses is a work of art. In many ways, "The Reflecting Skin" is a "horror" film, but, unlike so many of those "other" films of today, THE REFLECTING SKIN relies on "stylized craft" to the enjoyment of fans of "alternate" horror. This film will not satisfy the "blood-lust" of your "average" horror fan. "The Reflecting Skin" delivers its weird, grotesque, grim-faced story in a cerebral way, with a unique flare that skillfully weaves together ragged threads of shattered childhood innocence, small-town quirky eeriness, and a romanticized gothic dread. To be sure "The Reflecting Skin" is not a perfect film, but, has impressive, fascinating imagery and disturbing anxieties that will provide the viewer a strong and lasting impression long after it's over."
