Date Sold 1/17/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Undated (probably 2000s) Re-Release Hand-Painted Theatrical Folded Lebanese Movie Poster (measures 74 1/4" x 76 1/2" [189 x 194 cm]) (Learn More) House on Haunted Hill (some stills identify the movie as "House of Haunted Hill" but a collector tells us that he saw the film on the opening weekend and it was titled "House on Haunted Hill"), the 1959 William Castle haunted house horror thriller ("First film with the amazing new wonder Emergo [specially installed for this engagement] The thrills fly right into the audience!"; "The 13 greatest shocks of all time! Consult your doctor! Bring your seat belts! See it with someone with warm hands!") starring Vincent Price, Carol Ohmart, Richard Long, Alan Marshal, Elisha Cook Jr., Carolyn Craig, Julie Mitchum, and Leona Anderson. Note that the "gimmick" for this movie (Emergo) described above consisted of an actual fake skeleton that was pulled out from above the screen on a wire and dragged across the audience when the skeleton on the movie comes out of its box, and then it is reeled back in across the audience, making two trips. This required special equipment, and apparently many theaters chose not to install it, because the pressbook has special ads for it only for theaters that have the Emergo equipment. We have read that some of the theaters that DID install the equipment had it uninstalled, once teen boys learned of it, because they would come to the showings with slingshots and damage the skeleton with rocks or BBs!

Artist: Zeineddine Important Added Info: Note that in the past two years, we at eMoviePoster.com were consigned hand painted billboard sized Lebanese posters that apparently hung on the walls at Lebanese showings of classic movies! Most of those measured around 6 feet by 12 feet, and each was a one of a kind poster, painted by a specific Lebanese artist, "Zeineddine". We have been told that this specific poster was used between 10 and 25 years ago at a showing of this movie in Lebanon, but it is possible it was used more recently than that. The above is all the information we have about this poster, so please do not bid unless you can accept these uncertainties as to exactly when it was created and how it was used. Also note that this Lebanese poster was printed in 6 sections designed to overlap. Condition: good. The theater that used this poster glued some of the pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces).
