The Posters of Vasilis Marmatakis

I was completely mesmerized by the poster for the upcoming movie Bugonia, a “satirical absurdist science fiction dark comedy” (Wikipedia). It was designed by Vasilis Marmatakis who collaborates frequently with the movie’s director, Yorgos Lanthimos. The only film I’ve seen (and twice) by the latter is the eerie Killing of a Sacred Deer.

I went looking for Marmatakis’ other work because I had pressing and important things bearing down upon me and was delighted with my excursion. Thought I’d collect some favorites (could be his entire oeuvre down there). Other favorites are his posters for Nimic and Bleat.

Here’s an interview with him about his process and work on Poor Things1. Here are his Top Ten favorite posters.
