"Blue Sunshine – Demon Frenzy Panic", Original Release Japanese Poster 1978, B2 Size (c. 51 cm × 73 cm) N53

This is an original Japanese poster printed in 1978 for the first theatrical release of Blue Sunshine (悪魔の狂暴パニック), Jeff Lieberman’s cult LSD-horror thriller.

Film background
Released in the U.S. in 1977, Blue Sunshine follows a series of sudden, hair-shedding homicidal rages traced back to a tainted strain of LSD taken a decade earlier. Blending conspiracy noir with midnight-movie gore, the film became a drive-in favourite and later a VHS staple of psychedelic horror fandom.

Poster design
Printed in standard B2 format, this Japanese campaign features:

• A shocking central image of a bald, blood-nosed victim foregrounding a mall riot rendered in lurid photo-montage.

• Vertical yellow and white copy trumpeting “Unprecedented terror hits Japan!” and “Ten-year after-effect of a dreadful drug!”

• Bold red katakana title 悪魔の狂暴パニック (“Demon Frenzy Panic”) with the English tag BLUE SUNSHINE inset above.

• Photo strip of key scenes—psycho fits, car attacks, scalpel-wielding panic—anchoring the lower margin.

Japanese B2s for late-70s American exploitation titles were printed in modest quantities and are now highly sought after by cult-cinema collectors.

This poster is in very good condition. The poster was folded and subsequently stored flat for many years, minor edge wear are present—please refer to the imagery (both front and back) as this is the exact poster that is for sale.
