Date Sold 9/20/2012Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage (re-titled "Immediate Disaster") Theatrical Folded Australian Daybill Movie Poster (db; measures 13 1/4" x 30" [34 x 76 cm]) (Learn More) Stranger From Venus (released in Australia as "Immediate Danger"), the 1954 Burt Balaban English/U.S. science fiction (sci-fi) alien-visitor-from-space thriller ("When the earth had fourteen second to live!!!") starring Patricia Neal, Helmut Dantine (in the title role as The Stranger), Derek Bond, Cyril Luckham, and Willoughby Gray. Note that after the huge success of "The Day the Earth Stood Still" in 1951, there were two low-budget imitations of that movie made in England in 1954. One was "Devil Girl from Mars", and the other was this movie, which seems to be also known as "Immediate Disaster" (but we don't know when or where it was called that!). The producers made a wise move in hiring Patricia Neal (the star of "The Day the Earth Stood Still") to essentially play the same role in this movie, but they had no budget, so there were virtually no special effects, and apparently, Helmut Dantine was no Michael Rennie, and the movie is almost completely forgotten today (but apparently it can be seen in its entirety on YouTube). But movie paper on this is beyond scarce! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. The poster is somewhat brittle and there are some tears along the foldlines and around the edges. There is some ink transfer throughout the poster from it being stored folded for a long period of time. Learn More about condition grades
