A 1969 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Operazione Paura (released in the U.S. in 1967 as "Kill Baby Kill" and in England as "Curse of the Dead"), the 1966 Mario Bava Italian zombie undead monster horror thriller ("Warning! Please Don't Feed The Animals"; "Where evil things happen after dark"; "The S Q Show"; "Makes you shiver & quiver!"; "Eerie, horrific, bloodcurdling!"; about a doctor who is called by a detective to a small village to perform an autopsy on a woman who has died under suspicious circumstances only to fnid out that she and others were killed by the ghost of a child!) starring Giacomo Rossi Stuart (billed as "G. Rossi Stuart"), Erika Blanc, Max Lawrence, Fabienne Dali, Piero Lulli, and Luciano Catenacci NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a poster or lobby card that was printed by MGM for a European movie that they distributed in the U.S.. Somewhere in the early 1960s, MGM apparently made a huge "trade" deal with European movie distributors. From the early 1960s to the late 1960s, MGM released 100 or more non-U.S. movies in the U.S. under the MGM logo (some dating back to the 1950s), and in return, they apparently gave 100 or more MGM movies (from the 1950s and early 1960s) to those European distributors to release in Europe. All of the posters from both sets of releases have a very similar type of somewhat garish, very colorful artwork, and some have an MGM logo that is different from than on other MGM movies of the same time period, which makes it likely that those (with different logos) are from re-releases. None of these posters (except for the very first few of them) have any dates on them. Over the years, I have seen many of these posters (from both types) sold as first release, but, as stated above, some of these are mid to late 1960s re-releases, and the ones from U.S. movies are "international" posters (or lobby cards) that were used in non-U.S. countries. If anyone knows more about these MGM releases, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: very good. There are some creases and several tears along the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on the other foldlines, and some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds. Learn More about condition grades
