A 1984 Re-Release Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

Basket Case, the 1982 Frank Henenlotter evil twin horror comedy ("The tenant in room 7 is very small, very twisted, and very mad") starring Kevin Van Hentenryck, Terri Susan Smith, Beverly Bonner, Robert Vogel, and Dianna Browne. Note that this movie was originally released in 1982 by Analysis Film Corporation as a very limited release in New York City, and the rights to distribution were quickly purchased by Safir Films Ltd. and it was edited into a more comedic film, which the director thought would help to sell it better. The movie was released in Los Angeles by Safir, then played continuously during midnight shows and in other limited theaters and in Australia. It was later re-released in 1984 by Rugged Films, Inc. who were forced to re-release the movie as unrated due to threats of an X-rating from the MPAA!
