Polish Poster Postin'

It's not exactly a secret that movie posters in Poland can be just a bit Odd compared to their American counterparts. Of course, when it comes to art, Odd can be a pretty good thing.
Let's take a pause to just enjoy some examples, and perhaps absorb some context for later posts, hm? To get a decent overview, i'm going for quantity here - 20 posters presented at a smaller than usual size:

NOTE: Two posters have been omitted from this post. They contain nudity (sort of) and have been moved to our back room for adult content. The titles remains so that you may decide whether or not you wish to look at the posters.
Please follow this link to The Other Voice Of ODD! archive of the original post to view the missing images.

Let me just say that the posters for their home grown films get a fair bit odder.

But looking at Polish movie posters has recently led me to ponder...   What do Polish comic book covers look like?  (Bet you can guess what's coming)
