Grrrrr! Mutant Bear! The Poster is Better than the Movie. Bearly. (HA!)
I imagine the creation of this poster went something like this:
Marketing Director: Hey, Alien was a huge hit! Aren’t you doing a monster movie?
Prophecy Producer: Yep. It’s called Prophecy, it’s about a mutant bear.
Marketing Director: Cool… Cool… I have an idea for a movie poster. Why don’t we put the bear in an egg? Maybe look like a crazy bear fetus. You, know, like the hand thing in that Ridley Scott movie.
Prophecy Producer: I’m not sure that’s how it works. A bear is a mammal.
Marketing Director: Nonsense! This is going to pack the theaters! I say mutant bear egg.
Prophecy Producer: OK… if you think it’ll work.
Marketing Director: Trust me!
Later…
Prophecy Producer: THAT LOOKS LIKE A PIG! WHAT THE FUCK?
Marketing Director: Um… yeah. Gotta go! Good luck with the movie!
