While nobody likes catching a virus, at least our medicine-aided bodies are usually able to recover. But, if you catch the vampire virus in The Strain, Guillermo del Toro's new TV series, you're on the fast track to becoming a creature of the night no matter how strong your body's defenses are. With The Strain set for a July 13th debut, Phantom City Creative recently revealed two new posters for the upcoming series.
Here are the details for both versions of Phantom City Creative's The Strain posters, created for the ATX Television Festival Season 3 in Austin, Texas:
Austin, TX- Tuesday, April 15, 2014 - "ATX Television Festival and FX present two new Mondo posters in celebration of the world premiere pilot episode for THE STRAIN and the episode nine advanced screening of FARGO. Both screenings will be featured oat closing night of the ATX Television Festival Saturday, June 7th.
ATX Television Festival, the first festival devoted to television's history and future, is proud to have FX Networks join them for the festival, and host Season 3's Closing Night. Closing Night programming will feature the world premiere of the pilot episode of The Strain in addition to the premiere of the 9th episode of Fargo.
