The Rumours film poster is pure chaos (and I love it)

An exclusive poster has dropped for the upcoming apocalyptic horror-comedy, Rumours, and from the aesthetic alone I'm already a huge fan. While traditional static posters can create a sense of mood and nuance, Rumours' larger-than-life motion design is a chaotic feast for the eyes that breaks every film poster design rule in a magnificently offbeat way.

Fashioned as an old-school tabliod magazine, the film poster has a retro feel that adds to the overall absurdity of the design. It's an expert blend of unique creativity and playful easter eggs. proving that film poster promos don't have to be confined to brooding minimalism or overplayed floating head design.
