There were many posters made for the French-German psychological horror film Possession by Andrzej Żuławski, starring Isabelle Adjani and Sam Neill. Fortunately for us, Tom Chantrell made one of these. He combined the Arnold Böcklin typeface with a color-intense illustration from Polish poster artist Barbara Baranowska (who also made the original movie poster for the French release). This version is another example of his genius and style that is formative for the horror film poster to the present day.
