"I saw THE WARRIORS for the first time when I was kid, and it made me think two things: 1. A lot can happen in one night and 2. All downtown areas are packed with a variety of costumed, rival gangs running the streets. I now know the truth about downtown areas, but decades later and The Warriors is still all about stuffing an hour and thirty minutes with the craziest night a little old gang from Coney Island could handle. So when it came to my contribution to THE WARRIORS poster pantheon, I knew I wanted to depict everything that happened that night by packing a downtown area with a variety of costumed, rival gangs running the streets."
-Dave Arcade
"Dave Arcade is giving me sense memories of watching the vibrant SESAME STREET “Pinball Number Count” animation as a kid, but instead with Martha Reeves and the Vandellas' “Nowhere to Run” song playing over it. This poster for THE WARRIORS is packed full of so many great references from the film. Can you dig it!?"
