Film Posters: Exploitation
Synopsis
Sex, drugs, delinquency, Black power, alternative culture and, of course, rock and roll: these are just some of the attention of the cinema’s bottom-feeders over the past eighty years. A few of the resulting films have become cult classics, but most were simply tracky – few would probably now want to sit through two hours of High School Hellcats (1958) or Hot Rod Rumble (1957). The posters produced to promote them, on the other hand, are wonderful period pieces that vividly evoke the social fears, temptations and taboos of bygone eras.
