Description

White Zombie (United Artists, 1932). Lobby Card (11" X 14").
These days "zombie" movies are dramatically different from what they used to be. Back in the day there were themes of voodoo rituals rather than toxic contamination. But it all began with White Zombie, starring the ever-engaging Bela Lugosi as a sort of witch doctor and leader of the zombies in question. Shot in only eleven days, the film was quite successful in its time, though unfortunately, Lugosi wasn't appropriately compensated for his role considering the box office profits. These cards are extremely rare, and should not be overlooked by any discerning horror collector. This particular card features Lugosi very much in his element, surrounded by his minions, a great representation of the film. There are pinholes in the corners and borders, some light foxing in the bottom border, paper tape on the reverse, and very slight surface paper loss in the top left and bottom right corners. Fine+.
