2021 IMP Awards - Worst Movie Poster Nominees


Escape Room: Tournament of Champions Movie Poster

Escape Room: Tournament of Champions


There seems to be a serious disconnect between the reactions of the two characters. The woman appears worried but calm, while the man seems to be in a desperate situation (or is in the middle of a serious dance routine). This might be because the actual reactions seem to come from two completely different scenes in the film. Interestingly enough, the other posters show him in a similar pose while trapped underwater, which seems to make a lot more sense. Their drastic contrast in reactions makes the poster more laughable than frightening.

Bruce Willis has been starring in an awful lot of bad movies lately, often with posters that are just as terrible. Was this the best shot they could get of him for the poster? He looks like a bored wax figurine of himself. The photo of the two stars was clearly taken in the daytime but they decided to use a night scene for the poster. They also seem to have just taken Willis's badge and Photoshopped a copy on to Megan Fox. Add in an incredibly dumb tagline and we've got a real stinker of a poster.

What do you do when you have a great shot from the movie but it doesn't include all the main cast members? Just slap in some random shots of the other characters, no one will notice... Jane Curtin and Loretta Devine are indeed sitting on that motorbike but Ann-Margaret and Ellen Burstyn have been sloppily pasted into the shot, ruining what could've been a half decent poster.

This might have been an okay (though kind of cheesy) design if someone had not insisted that they add Iliza Shlesinger into the shot. Awkwardly slapping her onto the poster makes it a little more symmetrical but makes the whole design confusing.


and the winner (loser) is...
