This was a poster I made a while ago that Bottleneck Gallery sent to their BB members as an exclusive print.

And today I get to show it to the world on the exact day this movie was released in theaters!

The best part is that I'm at this moment in a film festival ready to watch the movie in a screen theater.
And there's more! Producer Gale Anne Hurd is even here to introduce the movie. A helluva anniversary party 😄
