The movie poster renderings of Ken Taylor have that quintessential comic style that’s bound to resonate not just with fans of the movies, but with anyone who has an appreciation for stylized artwork.

The ultra-stylized designs are rendered to resemble popular film posters done in [comic book style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-ideas-eras-tour-poster), but still maintain the essence of the film portrayed. Taylor’s design features classic cult movies such as First Blood, Silence of the lambs and American Werewolf in London.

The movie-to-comic book renderings will have any [movie buff](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a24-movie-chocolate) dishing out their wallets to get a piece of these posters for their walls. Most of the movies that are being reworked into stylized posters are [cult classics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuice-beetlejuice1), so it’s only a matter time til a stylized comic book poster of ‘Bring it on’ will be produced.
