13 EXAMPLES OF HORROR & SCI-FI VHS BOX ART

Today we gots 13 examples of VHS box art in the horror and sci-fi genres, naturally our favorites, so, here we go with some cool eye candy, just for you.

We start with this one, MESA OF LOST WOMEN, Tarantella posing with her giant spider pal.

Here's a super wild cover from FIEND WITHOUT A FACE showing that poor guy getting choked out by one of the fiends!

Universal basically had the best VHS box art, like this fine example here for TARANTULA, a movie that I saw at the theater back in the day.

Then there are some bonkers covers, like this one for I WAS A TEENAGE FRANKENSTEIN that will grab your attention!

Another awesome example of VHS box art for MONSTER ON THE CAMPUS from Universal, Arthur Franz was in a pile of interesting horror and sci-fi films in the fifties. Saw this one with my dad in 1958.

Great box art here for ATTACK OF THE CRAB MONSTERS, man, that kicks ass! Saw this Cormanized flick in 1957, loved it.

The artwork here for MONOLITH MONSTERS is fairly bizarre Universal design, but nice. Also saw this one with my dad, the giant growing crystals were unbelievably awesome, what a great idea for a movie!

Love this box art for INVADERS FROM MARS, those mutants were a sight to behold, all big and green like, with their rock melting tools, Arthur Franz was in this one too. If you ever get the chance, check out the British version!

Seeing THE BLOB with my dad in 1958 left me wounded for years! Very nice artwork with Steve at the center of everything.

Here's all you need to know about QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE, 'nuf said! I saw this one in 1958 and thought the sets were crappy.

Here's an attractive piece of artwork for FIRST MAN INTO SPACE with The Professor there at the bottom left, the monster was a freak from Hell.

We couldn't not include this great GODZILLS vs. THE SEA MONSTER box art, now, that's one wild ride there!

We'll end things with this box art for VOODOO WOMAN, black and white with orange lettering, simply sweet. That must be Mary Ellen Kay's face because it's definitely not Marla English. A little eye candy to brighten your day ~
