The Kinds of Kindness film posters are everything I want from a modern movie campaign

Director Yorgos Lanthimos' highly anticipated new film Kinds of Kindness has brought us a delightfully bizarre selection of film posters in the run-up to its release. In typical Lanthimos style, the offbeat designs are suitably stylish and cryptic, giving us a subtle taste of the film's absurdist dark comedy flavour. 

We've already seen some stunning film posters this year but the Kinds of Kindness designs are a masterclass in crafting mystery and intrigue with striking, stripped-back visuals. With Lanthimos' last release Poor Things receiving high praise (and some stunning movie posters alongside it), the upcoming release has a lot to live up to. But on the poster visuals alone, it looks like it's going to be a delightfully weird experience (and honestly I'd expect nothing less).
