The 1st Splatter Movie Festival was a theatrical event mounted by Nippon Herald Films in the mid-1980s, screening ten foundational works of American and European splatter cinema in a single Japanese run, including titles by George A. Romero, Sam Raimi, William Lustig, John Carpenter, Joe Dante, John Landis, Dario Argento, Paul Morrissey, and Stuart Rosenberg. The B2 poster collages thumbnails of each title with their distinct Japanese release titles in a grid layout, framed by unified festival typography and supporting horror imagery. Of particular interest as a piece of distribution history, documenting how the splatter genre was packaged for a Japanese audience during its commercial peak. A reference document for collectors of horror genre marketing and Nippon Herald Films campaign materials.
