Since the first "Saw", back in 2004, independant film studio Lionsgatehad promoted every movie of the franchise with a Halloween "Give ‘Til It Hurts" blood drive that benefits the The American Red Cross. Each time, the posters feature one or three sexy nurses who ask for blood.
Shot by photographer Tim Palen (Co-President of Theatrical Marketing at Lionsgate) the two blood drive posters for "Saw VI" released a week ago, show a mysterious masked nurse dressed with a corset of needles (Her original uniform was designed by The Blonds), who looks like a doll or an android more than a flesh and blood lady.
Check out those new posters below plus the previous ones from the blood drive series.
"Saw VI" will be released in the US theaters on October 23rd, 2009 and in France one month later.
One month after the two posters showing the lead male characters of Guy Ritchie’s “Sherlock Holdmes” (Robert Downey Jr. as Holmes and Jude Law as Dr. Watson), Warner Bros just revealed a third poster with the main (Canadian) actress of the movie, Rachel McAdams (“Mean Girls”), who plays the charming Irene Adler. This character featured in only one story written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (“A Scandal in Bohemia” – 1891), but she’s considered like the most interesting female character of the Sherlock Holmes stories (“She has the face of the most beautiful of women, and the mind of the most resolute of men”).
Also, between 1990 and 2004, American writer Carole Nelson Douglaswrote 13 mysterey novels and short stories leaded by Irene Adler. Concerning the movie (which is not a novel adaptation, but , a comic book one, created by producer Lionel Wigram – who put Doyle’s public domain characters in an original story) it definitly looks more like an action comedy than a suspense movie. US release: December 25th, 2009. French release: February 3rd, 2009.
