Yet Dead! She's Dead... Yet Alive!"; "Doomed to be one of the 'walking dead' by weird and wily witchcraft... her radiant blonde loveliness ravaged through the curse of vengeful voodoo!"; "Who said the dead don't walk!"; "See It Happen - right before your startled eyes..in the screen sensation that rips the mask from the darkest secrets of forbidden voodoo!"; "Forbidden voodoo secrets sensationally revealed!"; "Voodoo... Black magic... Witchcraft... From the land of the living dead!"; "You won't believe it, but it's true!"; "Imagine yourself perhaps hungering for love - dying for just one warm kiss... yet alone in a world of people... a part of, yet apart from, everything you hold dear. Wow! What a Spot!"; "Based on an Original Story by Inez Wallace", very loosely based on the novel 'Jane Eyre' by Charlotte Bronte; "Screenplay by Curt Siodmak & Ardel Wray") starring James Ellison, Frances Dee, Tom Conway, Edith Barrett, James Bell, Christine Gordon, and Darby Jones NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this 1943 first release insert, one 16 years ago and one 13 years ago (they sold for $3,076 and $2,101)! One of those two examples has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still only one of two examples we have ever auctioned! First release 1943 posters on this title have always been extremely rare! Likely this is because the movie was re-released in 1956, and it may well be that the original posters were either destroyed or used up during that re-release. In addition, RKO at this time used better printing for their inserts than they did for their one-sheets, and of course, the full-length female zombie image works fantastic in the insert format! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube (although, because we don't feel it would hurt the poster to re-fold it, it could also be sent flat, if the buyer has flat purchases to combine it with and no rolled purchases). Condition: good to very good. There is a piece of tape on the center of the top border that has yellowed, and there is a piece of brown tape on the back of that area, mending a 2" tear. There is a tiny stain in the center of the mouth of the zombie girl. There is small paper loss in the bottom right blank corner and some faint creases and scuffs throughout the image, and some tiny stains around the edges of the poster.
