Giveaway: Unique Movie Inspired Shirts From Dark Bunny Tees
December 4, 2009 by Alison
Sadly, I have seen a lot of awful horror film inspired t-shirts that end up looking overdone, overcrowded and lack originality. Freelance illustrator Alex Chenery has effectively solved that problem by starting his own unique movie inspired t-shirt company, Dark Bunny Tees. Even though he just set up shop in October, Alex has had a huge response to his work and it’s easy to see why.
“I’m trying to be a little different than all the rest, using my skills as a freelance illustrator to create some ‘movie-spoof art’ rather than stick a familiar logo or simply designed parody on a shirt,” Alex explained. Mission accomplished Sir. His creative designs are reminiscent of some of the great old exploitation illustrations, combined with a nifty vintage tin sign feel. The result is unexpected, imaginative and full of win. Each design is filled with enough in-jokes to please the biggest horror fan but doesn’t look like your typical fare. Take note–Alex is a one-man band and all of his shirts are limited editions (100 designs max worldwide), which guarantees you’re getting a one of a kind work of art. He’s considering reducing his line to a 20 print run so the sooner you order the better. One more reason to order from Dark Bunny Tees is the ridiculously cool packaging–each t-shirt is shipped in its own A4 old skool video box with its own cover sleeve design. I think I just melted. What more do you people need?! Order one of these bad boys here! (Ladies, they come in girly tees if you’re worried about a proper fit) While you’re at it, show the man some love on Twitter.

I love these shirts…such a clever idea to take little elements of the movies and use them instead of the same ole same ole “hey look at the boogieman on my shirt” concept

These shirts are great, really clever. I especially like the RoboCop one. “Please eat. You have 20 seconds to comply.” Hilarious.
