[Poster Art] Tyler Stout
It is often said around our office that anyone who does art inspired by John Carpenter films is an immediate and lifelong friend of this magazine. Well, Mr. Tyler Stout, welcome to the fold! You might already recognize Tyler’s style as he did the artwork for the Flight of the Conchords album. However, among print collectors, he’s better known for his awesome reimaginings of cult film posters for screenings at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin. Tyler humbly describes his style as “derivative? I dunno. I rip off lots of old movie poster styles from the Sixties and Seventies.” Derivative or not, his designs have clearly struck a chord with some as there are loads of people who spend all day on his site, hitting the refresh button and waiting for him to release a limited edition screenprint of an awesome movie like Robocop, Total Recall, Inglourious Basterds or what you see pictured above.
