Brian Bysouth - Big Trouble in Little China - década de 1980
This is an original Yugoslav theatrical poster for Big Trouble in Little China (1986), released locally as “Velika gužva u kineskoj četvrti”, and distributed for FEST ’87, the major Belgrade film festival.
Posters with the FEST imprint are highly collectible because they were printed in small quantities, specifically for festival screenings rather than wide distribution.
Artwork & Design
The Yugoslav design is visually striking:
A large, hand-painted portrait of Lo Pan, rendered in an exaggerated supernatural style
Kurt Russell as Jack Burton in the foreground, holding his iconic machine pistol
Kim Cattrall and the supporting cast illustrated in classic 1980s fantasy style
Dynamic background scenes of magic battles, Chinatown night streets, and mystical warriors
Bright, colourful layout with bold local-language title lettering
This is one of the most dramatic and vividly illustrated Eastern European poster variations for this cult Carpenter film.
Authenticity
All elements confirm the poster is a genuine original Yugoslav release:
Distributor/print markings present
FEST ’87 emblem and text
Localized cast and crew typography
Standard YU size 70×50 cm (folded as issued)
Offset print consistent with mid-1980s Yugoslav production
Condition: Good to Very Good.
Poster shows original factory folds (as issued for cinema distribution). Colours remain strong and vibrant. Image area is clean with no major paper loss.
Visible wear along the edges, including creasing, fraying and a few small tears on the borders. Mild surface wear present in several spots (see photos). Overall still a solid and displayable example of this scarce title.
Collectability
Big Trouble in Little China has evolved into one of the most beloved cult classics of the 1980s.
Yugoslav posters—especially FEST editions—are far rarer than U.S. or Western European issues, making this an excellent collectible for:
John Carpenter collectors
Kurt Russell fans
80s fantasy/action enthusiasts
FEST memorabilia collectors
Eastern European poster art specialists
These posters have seen a strong rise in market interest due to their unique artwork and low surviving numbers.
Shipping
Poster will be shipped carefully folded, protected between sturdy cardboard sheets, with full tracking.
