The Mummy Rises From The Tomb

This is my entry for the contest held by NHuval-stock:



and as a level 2 entry for the Witches & Mummies Challenge at ManipulateThis:



I conceived this as a movie poster for an undated and completely imaginary Mummy film, an homage to the old sensationalistic posters from the equally sensationalistic Universal and Hammer films. There are elements here of movie poster style popular from the 1940s to the 1980s. If you have seen some of those old-style movie posters you may see a little resemblance.... if I've managed to do my job right.

I added a little grunge and paper fold to make it look like this poster has been sitting in a basement or an attic for the last 30 or 40 years.
