10 Ridiculous International Movie Posters
1. The Matrix
Another Ghanaian poster, and another absolute belter. You don't have to squint especially hard to deduce what's not quite right about this artistic effort from Accra, chalked up to help promote 1999's seminal sci-fi classic The Matrix.
There might be no spoon, but Keanu Reeves' Neo looks like he's appearing on the back of one. Oh, and that's not former West Brom manager Gary Megson in the corner, but Laurence Fishburne. Honest!
A little admission at this point: as wonderful as these Ghanaian film posters are, they're sadly not the official localised efforts, but rather the work of amateur artisans produced for the country's booming mid-'90s bootleg VHS market. More often than not, those commissioned to paint the advertisements had often not even seen the film in question. Though they probably had seen a real human being.
