Paramount Pictures upcoming cinema release Dungeons and Dragons: Honour Among Thieves uses my hand-drawn brush font Zombie Punks in its movie trailer, adding contrast to the blocky lead text.
Originally conceived as a grungy horror font inspired by 80s movie posters and VHS covers, this trailer uses it to great effect against the metallic, glistening blocks of a traditional fantasy typeface. It suggests that this Dungeons and Dragon movie leans towards the darker side of fantasy while keeping a sense of humour.
Movie Synopsis: A charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers undertake an epic heist to retrieve a lost relic, but things go dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves brings the rich world and playful spirit of the legendary roleplaying game to the big screen in a hilarious and action-packed adventure.
