"They're coming to get you, Barbara." Spoken by Johnny to his sister one fateful day in the cemetery, that iconic line from George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead is forever etched into the brains of horror fans, and artist "Ghoulish" Gary Pullin pays tribute to that magical cinematic moment in his new pins that will be featured this September at Below the Line 2: An Exhibition of Modern Movie Art in Hamilton, Ontario. In addition to the pins, we have a look at some of the amazing horror movie posters that will be featured at the exhibit.
Below, check out our first look at Pullin's new Night of the Living Dead pins and other artwork that will be at Below the Line 2, which opens on September 8th and runs at the same time as Hamilton's art-centric SuperCrawl Weekend. To learn more, visit Below the Line 2's official Facebook page, read on for additional details, and in case you missed it, check out our coverage of the first round of posters for Below the Line 2.
"Below the Line 2: An Exhibition of Modern Movie Art opens on September 8th 6:30 pm - 10:30 pm at Mills Hardware 95 King Street, Hamilton Ontario.
Curated by Gary Pullin and Sara Deck, the show features stunning, silkscreened movie prints from today’s best and brightest poster artists including Jason Edmiston, Justin Erickson, Paige Reynolds, Matty Ryan Tobin, Kevin Tong, Sara Deck, Tracie Ching, Paul Jackson, Vincent Marcone, Vance Kelly and Gary Pullin.
Below the Line runs in tandem with SuperCrawl Weekend, an annual art event in Hamilton, Ontario Canada that attracts thousands of art lovers who walk the downtown streets to buy from tons of local artists and to check out live music.
Most of the artists are dropping brand new posters and some are displaying their favourites as well as a few original pieces. In addition to the opening, Sara, Gary and Matty will be running a double wide booth during SuperCrawl all weekend long, so make sure to drop by and check out the prints from the show, as well as previous stock from the artists. Make sure to follow @below_the_line_ on Instagram, a few artists from the show will be dropping by the booth to do signings and to meet fans.
Sponsors Grey Matter Art, HorrorHound Magazine, the documentary 24x36: A Movie About Movie Posters and Fright Rags have all come on board to help promote the event and celebrate screen-printed movie art.
Below the Line: An Exhibition of Modern Film Posters was started in 2016 by Sara Deck and Gary Pullin to bring attention to the many artists that live in Hamilton or the Toronto area and was created to turn our city onto the alternative screen printed movie poster scene that has become highly collectible in recent years.

Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.
When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
