Lost in Translation: The Exorcist

I know I pick on Poland a lot in this segment, but their stuff is just too damn odd. For example, take their poster for the '70s classic The Exorcist...

Um...okay. While I get the metaphor, it tells you nothing about the movie. 'Hey honey, let's go see that film where the snake wraps itself around the tree!'

Next up, Germany takes on George A. Romero film. Will it be confusing and vague? Stay tuned...

This is my favorite feature on any blog. I couldnt give you an interpretation of what they could mean to the film if I tried

Thanks for the compliment, Carl. I live to please.

As for the metaphor, I think it's just supposed to be the snake/Devil from The Garden of Eden. That's as much as I got out of it anyways.
