20 Baffling Foreign Movie Posters

13.Weekend at Bernie's (Poland)

[Octo: since I became a desk jockey (again) I've been reading a lot of Cracked.com's content. When JPX was first bringing their articles to light a few years ago, the titles were usually the best part and the articles fell short. But they're pretty damn hilarious these days. This list is one of my favorites.]

So Poland is going to try to dominate this list, isn't it? Just look at that shit. Now here's the thing; they have TV ad campaigns for these movies, right? Don't the Polish people get confused when these ads show a couple of wacky kids in a slapstick farce with their dead boss, while the poster shows whatever the hell that is up there?

Or do they change the ads, too; replacing them with just the above image over the sounds of a heartbeat and a child crying softly in the background?

[See the rest of them here. I insist.]
