Forget Hallmark. If your special someone is truly special, they’ll appreciate these David Cronenberg Valentine’s Day cards far more. The cards — which appear to be a real product produced and sold in the early ‘90s — feature Valentine’s Day platitudes taken to their literal extreme courtesy of shocking stills from the director’s extensive repertoire of horror films.
Say ‘Happy Valentine’s Day’ the David Cronenberg way
These are just a few of our favorites, from Scanners (1981), Videodrome (1983), and Dead Ringers (1988), but there’s a total of 23 body horror cards for you to peruse. The creepy cache of Valentine’s Day cards were found by a couple of friends cleaning out an abandoned storage unit in Hollywood. They say they decided to scan them all and compile them on a website so you could easily send them to your Valentine. So what are you waiting for?
Thanks, Samantha!
