A brilliant piece of 1960's sci-fi styling! A guaranteed original one sheet movie poster from 1964 for Terence Fisher's end of the world, sci-fi horror "The Earth Dies Screaming", starring Willard Parker, Virginia Field, Dennis Price, Vanda Godsell, Thorley Walters and David Spenser.
Screen-writer Harry Spalding said the title came from a joke and "somehow it kind of stuck"! Shot at Shepperton Studios, just outside of London, it is referenced in "The Zombie Movie Encyclopaedia" (Peter Dendle) as "... an obvious precursor to Night of the Living Dead".
This wonderful period piece poster was originally issued folded, but has since been linen-backed and as our photos show looks fantastic! A wonderful piece for any fan of 1960's sci-fi and horror. We love it!
By the way, the film was the inspiration for an Atari 2600 computer game and songs by UB40 and Tom Waits!
We only sell guaranteed original movie posters. We do not sell reproductions.
Note: This poster is priced unframed. Photos showing framed and 'in room' images are for illustration only. Please check our hi-res images and the sizing information shown above.

Original Poster Buying Guide
Authenticity & Original Posters
Art of the Movies specialises exclusively in authentic original cinema posters issued for theatrical release. These are not modern reproductions or decorative reprints.
Original posters were produced in limited numbers for cinemas to promote films during their initial release. As a result, surviving examples have become highly collectible artefacts of film history.
Each poster offered on this site is an authentic vintage piece created for cinema exhibition and carefully selected for collectors and film enthusiasts.
Condition & Age
Vintage cinema posters were working promotional materials used by theatres and distributors. As such, signs of age and handling are normal and form part of their character.
Condition is carefully assessed for each poster and reflected in the description. Where relevant, notes may include details such as light handling wear, fold lines from original cinema distribution, or minor edge wear.
Any significant restoration or conservation work will always be clearly stated.
Poster Formats & Dimensions
Original cinema posters were produced in a variety of standard formats depending on the country and era of release.
Common formats include UK Quad, US One Sheet and other theatrical display sizes. Exact dimensions for each poster are provided in the product details where relevant.
These historic formats are part of the distinctive character of original film advertising.
Framing Options
Many posters can be supplied professionally framed as an optional extra.
Framing is carried out using archival-quality materials designed to protect and display vintage paper safely. Frames are prepared to complement the artwork while maintaining a clean, gallery-style presentation.
Where framing is available, it can be selected before purchase.
Packaging & Delivery
Posters are carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery.
Unframed posters are typically shipped rolled safely packaged within our extra-thick custom-made tubes. Framed pieces are securely boxed using protective materials to minimise movement during transit.
Orders are dispatched with tracking where available.
