    One of the freakiest and perhaps a little bit scary is the poster for the 1970′s remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

    I love b-movie posters the best, some brilliant design and to think before photoshop, how did that work?!

    This is a fantastic assembly of posters. And as an illustrator myself, I can’t help noticing how many of them utilize illustration. The trend toward all things retro seems far from over, so I hope that bodes well for the future of illustration. Thanks for sharing!

    Awesome round-up! These 70s posters can inspire designers to work on a classic design project. I would love to see those designs be revived by today’s graphic designers.

    Why super-freaky 70′s? In reality, I don’t see any difference to speak of from today. Maybe a few, but there are some super freaky ones now, as well. Guess you had to put some kind of label on it.
