If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that for this re-release, the distributor gave it the far more commercial title of "Blood Creature", and the poster designers came up with a lot of really wild taglines, some of which seemed to have been stolen from 1950s classics! The taglines include: "Bring Your Own Tranquilizer!"; "We Dare You To See It! It will scare the YELL out of you!"; "A Monster Science Created but could not destroy!"; "More Horrifying Than FRANKENSTEIN! More Terrifying Than DRACULA!" Also note that this poster comes with a certificate of authenticity ("A Genuine Treasure of the Ackermuseum, Horrorwood, Karloffornia") personally signed by "The Ackermonster" (Forrest J. Ackerman). Note that only a limited number of these color certificates were made (for a sale of FJA movie paper by Bruce Hershenson), and also note that legendary horror/sci-fi fan Mr. Ackerman (publisher of "Famous Monsters of Filmland") has recently passed away. Condition: fair to good. The poster has become somewhat brittle with age and there is a large tear in the left of the bottom edge and much tattering and separation along the foldlines.
