2020 IMP Awards - Worst Movie Poster Nominees


Friendsgiving Movie Poster

Friendsgiving


You know you're in trouble when you've got a film about Thanksgiving and you have to rely on Shutterstock just to get a photo of a turkey. Like so many worst poster nominees over the years, someone had the unenviable task of piecing together stock photos and random images of the cast in an attempt to come up with a poster. Why are people dancing outside their window? What does shirtless guy find so fascinating about the outside of their house? A total mess.

One of the biggest problems with piecing together random cast photos is line of sight. Two or three of the background characters might actually be looking in Pauly Shore's direction. The rest are clearly focused on something entirely different. The two guys staring directly at the camera may be fascinated by the gigantic green orb that appears to be reflected in Pauly Shore's sunglasses.

Force of Nature


We could've nominated this poster for Mel Gibson's messed up eyes or for how half of Emile Hirsch's face appears to be hand drawn, but take a close look at the center image to see the best reason.

The Swing of Things


This one is just painful. Adding a few wet spots to the clothing does not make these people look like they are actually standing in the water. The two leads at least look like they were photographed together but Luke Wilson might as well be staring at a shark off in the distance, Adelaide Kane seems to be focused on a fly on Owen Wilson's shoulder, and Jon Lovitz appears to have beamed in from another dimension and a different resolution.


and the winner (loser) is...
