Today Uncle Creepy presents to you the documentary "Reynold Brown: The Man Who Painted Bug-Eyed Monsters".

Reynold Brown is a name unknown to most of the world and that includes me, heh heh...until now. Who toiled behind the brush of all these great movie posters?
"Reynold Brown: The Man Who Painted Bug-Eyed Monsters" gives much needed attention and recognition to an artist whose extraordinary output of unforgettable images throughout the 50's, 60's and 70's lured millions of theater-goers into...and out of their seats.

Enjoy!

  1. Thanks so much for posting that video. I love watching stuff about the older artists because they went through so much more shit and worked way harder at their craft than people realize. It's always inspiring, and it was the perfect way for me to wrap up my evening yesterday.
