Generally we do not talk much about movie poster design here at DesignBump. However perhaps we really should do this more. Since this brand new poster for the upcoming adventure/monster reboot of Kong Skull Island is a real beauty of a monster poster.

In fact, so far Warner Bros Pictures and Legendary Films have done some stunning artwork with the promotional campaign for “Kong: Skull Island”. The poster designs for this monster movie have demonstrated that even with big film releases like Kong; experimental and perhaps unconventional poster designs still have a creative place. Some might say they also have an edge.

Just last week this same film saw a “Apocalypse Now” inspired artwork for Kong Skull Island appear online. While it may not have been an official poster for the new King Kong monster movie it was certainly a great piece of original creative work.

This week however sees King Kong thunder once more with a brand new official poster. The new Kong Skull Island poster design is actually for the Japanese film market but do we care. Japanese poster art for this film appears to have topped all that has been and gone before.

About Kong Skull Island

Even if you only mildly enjoy cool movie posters such as the Japanese poster art for King Kong Skull Island chances are you will enjoy the big screen reboot in the spring. The last King Kong movie was a more traditional Kong remake from Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson way back in 2005. That also was a decent effort. So Kong Skull Island will really have to top that earlier Peter Jackson movie in the overall thrills and adventure stakes.
