Original Anglo Amalgamated Film Distributors British Quad Poster (30×40) for the Michael Powell horror thriller, PEEPING TOM (1960)—starring Karlheinz Bohm, Moira Shearer, and Anna Massey. This lurid tale chronicles a lonely, unfriendly, and sexually repressed young man (Bohm), who is obsessed with the effects of fear and uses his movie camera to film the dying expressions of terror on the women he kills. Director Powell positions his camera directly behind murderer Mark, thus making the audience unwilling accomplices in these despicable acts of violence. Whatever the real reason for Powell making this film, he signed his career’s death warrant with its release. The film opened to scathing reviews in April 1960, just months after Alfred Hitchcock’s similarly themed PSYCHO (1960). Powell made only one more film before exiling himself to Australia. This original British quad poster is folded and in fine plus condition, with only some minor fold and edge distresses and separations.

Original Universal Pictures One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Alfred Hitchcock crime thriller, FRENZY (1972) starring Jon Finch, Barry Foster, and Barbara Leigh-Hunt. This is Hitchcock’s next to last film, and many critics rank it among his best. The story revolves around a serial killer who is savagely raping London women and then strangling them with a necktie. Scripted with ghoulish humor by Anthony Schaffer, it is the first Hitchcock film with nude scenes. Indeed, Hitchcock presents a sequence that many believe equals the notorious “shower scene” in PSYCHO (1960)—a horrific rape and slow strangulation that leaves the viewer simply stunned. This original one sheet poster is folded and in fine condition with only some minor fold separations, small tears, and a missing chip in the upper right border.
