"The Evil Dead" (死霊のはらわた), Original Japanese First-Release Movie Poster 1981, Rare Style B, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) G195
This is an original Japanese B2 poster printed in 1981 for the very first Japanese release of Sam Raimi’s cult-horror sensation The Evil Dead. This is the scarce Style B variant—issued in notably smaller numbers than the common style—highly prized by J-horror and video-nasty collectors.
Design
A grindhouse knockout: a massive, feral Deadite head gnashes across the lower half while a rusted chain motif climbs the right side. Blood-drip graphics, punchy hype copy in vertical blocks, and the slashed red title 「死霊のはらわた」 scream 1981 exploitation energy. Small “EVILDEAD” English tag sits in the torn yellow banner—pure, raw campaign art.
