Movie posters recast to stress animal rights

Movie posters recast to stress animal rights Casting humans as the true deadly beasts in animal-rights campaigns is a no-brainer. Doing so with creativity and good humor is another thing altogether. This German campaign uses some great movie-poster send-ups to convey the message that man—and in one case, a 50-foot woman—is the world's most lethal predator. See all three ads here.
