Lost in Translation: The Birds

Alfred Hitchcock had a nearly 50 year career, so it was only natural that some shitty, foreign posters were made out of his movies.  First up, The Birds...
This...can't be serious, can it?  You have a winged skull trailed by a swarm of Polish text reading 'Birds' (I'm guessing)- seriously?  Kudos for originality, I guess.

Next up, another classic gets the Polish touch.  Here's a hint: don't look down.  Stay tuned...

  1. Huh. Well, I guess it gets the gist of the movie across. Birds are evil, at least in the movie. Interesting concept.

  2. If you're new to the world of Polish poster art, you'll quickly learn that 'interesting' is a good way to describe most of their stuff.
