Friday Frazetta

  1. The hat seems somewhat...out of place in this scene. Time traveler? Fell though a dimensional portal perhaps?

  2. I believe this is the poster from an unreleased post-apocalyptic film ("3000 AD", or "America 3000"?), thus the gamma-world-style mix of elements.

  3. Pretty cool, but I have to agree with Daniel: Robert Redford in a top hat is a little jarring.

    Still, can there be a "bad" Frazetta?

  4. I really appreciate the mood/style/technique of Frazetta but generally aren't too excited about his subjects.

    This one is flippin awesome though

  5. Al, it looks like it did come out at some point--at least on VHS. It looks insane in a B-movie-Saturday-matinee-sort-of way.

    BTW, the actual cover for the videocassette is an abomination. Why on Earth wouldn't they go with Frazetta's?!

  7. Awesome art, as always Al :)

    re the movie: Haha! Looks like a Cannon Films version of Battlefield Earth by 'Elrond' Hubbard.

  8. I think the guy in the hat looks like paul newman from butch cassidy and the sundance kid.
