New Mondo Poster Series with Martin Scorsese's The Film Foundation

 Stick around long enough, and decay is inevitable. It's true for humans and for film stock: Half of all films made before 1950 are now lost forever. Preservation and restoration are the clarion calls of Martin Scorsese's nonprofit The Film Foundation; their cinematic saves are the focus of a new film series with Mondo and Alamo Drafthouse.

Kicking off this Monday with Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt, the eight-film series will pair restored 35mm prints with original poster art from Mondo. Sneak-peeped here are the art contributions of Jeff Kleinsmith's The Unholy Three, Delicious Design League's Film, and Elvisdead's The Old Dark House; other artists featured in the series include Alan Hynes, Laurent Durieux, Jay Shaw, and the Phantom City Creative. The films will also get the Mondo treatment with an original, stunning work of art available for sale at each of the screenings with remaining prints sold online at http://www.mondotees.com. The series runs Monday nights at the Alamo Ritz. The lineup includes:

Alan Hynes

May 7: Shadow of a Doubt (1943)
Joseph Cotten plays the suavest serial killer around in the thriller Hitchcock once pegged as his favorite from his filmography.Alan Hynes poster design is for Alfred Hitchcocks’ Shadow of A Doubt, regarded by many as the seminal Hitchcock film and Alfreds’ personal favorite.  ”The movie follows a murderer on the lam (Joseph Cotten) visiting his relatives in Santa Rosa, Calif. and forming a strange bond with his rebellious niece (Teresa Wright). As she grows increasingly suspicious of her uncle’s motives, the young woman must reconcile her personal allegiances with a higher sense of moral responsibility”

Jeff Kleinsmith

May 14: The Unholy Three (1925)
This is the original Tod Browning silent, starring Lon Chaney and screening here with a live score by Peter Stopschinski & Graham Reynolds. Also screening that night will be Alan Schneider's “Film” (1965), a silent short starring Buster Keaton and scripted by Samuel Beckett.

Delicious Design League

May 21: Rashomon (1950) Poster artist TBD
Kurosawa's international breakthrough is a masterstroke in unreliable narration. (See: "The Rashomon effect")

Laurent Durieux

May 28: King Kong (1933)
"Throw your arms across your eyes and scream … scream for your life!"

Jay Shaw

June 4: Paths of Glory (1957) Artist Jay Shaw
An unflinching look at war and a meditation on what is bravery, this was Stanley Kubrick's first collaboration with future Spartacus Kirk Douglas.

Elvisdead

June 11: The Old Dark House (1932)
"Dark house" horror from James Whale and a cast that can't be beat: Boris Karloff, Melvyn Douglas, Charles Laughton, Raymond Massey.

June 18: The Night of the Hunter (1955) Artist Phantom City Creative
Charles Laughton moved behind the camera, his only whack at it, for this Southern gothic spine chiller. It's a good bookend to Shadow of a Doubt, though Cotten's Uncle Charlie's got nothing on Robert Mitchum's murderous con man with hate in his heart and hard-lettered in ink across his knuckles.
Tickets for series starter Shadow of a Doubt are on sale now; the remaining shows will go on sale soon.

January Nakatomi Invitational- Jeff Kleinsmith!

Jeff Kleinsmith is a designing MACHINE. After overseeing the look of SUB-POP records for the better part of a decade, how does he have ANY energy left to do the magic that he does?

Well, luckily, we were able to squeeze this great piece of art from his dessicated, designing husk.

“Hello” is an 18×24 5 color screen print, hand printed in the Nakatomi print labs, and individually numbered!

Hello depicts a friendly skull-headed robot, cradling a human. A human who is about the be crushed to death, as shown in the companion shirt- ‘GOOD BYE’!

Doh! That guy is screwed!

Both the shirt and the print are limited to just 100 copies worldwide, or when the month is up, whichever comes first! Like all Nakatomi Invitational releases, they will ship 2-3 weeks after the end of the sale period.

“A robot walks into a bar
orders a drink
lays down a bill
The bartender says, hey we don’t serve robots
and the robot says, oh but someday you will”

-Silver Jews

Oh, you robots. You’ll be the death of us.

The shirt and poster are available RIGHT NOW in the Invitational section of the store!
