[Edit 10/1/10: Like a Pokemon grandmaster, I found them all! A big thanks to all of the artists who helped send me their pieces, that weren’t available online. Remember, if you see these online, they found them here!]
This past weekend saw the All Tomorrow’s Parties music and film festival head up to Monticello, New York. Criterion alum, Jim Jarmusch, curated the music for the festival, which saw the likes of Sonic Youth, Iggy and the Stooges, and Explosions In The Sky take the various stages. If you had some down time between bands, you could spend some time watching 22 films that Criterion brought with them for the festival.
As we’ve previously highlighted, Criterion commissioned several independent comic book artists to create movie posters for all of the films. We’ve already shown you the posters for Brute Force, Touchez Pas Au Grisbi, and Night of the Hunter, and have been eagerly awaiting some images of the various other posters.
Today on their Facebook page, Criterion took a snapshot of the entire line-up, which I’m embedding below:
In the comments for the image, Criterion named all of the contributing artists, which I’m listing below, linked to their respective blogs/websites. I’m also going to include some higher resolution art for the individual posters, as I find them.

They haven’t officially announced The Killing as a Criterion release yet, but if you click on this page, we go through all of the titles that they screened at All Tomorrows Parties, that haven’t been announced yet:

These are really so fantastic. I think the Repulsion one has to be my favorite.
Can you buy these?
It doesn’t seem like it yet. Hopefully they’ll make them available in the Criterion store online.
