If, like us, you re kind of daft on films, you KNOW that as soon as you see a belter of a tshirt with something you like on it, you're already weighing up how much ramen you'll need to eat for the rest of the week to balance out buying the fucking thing. And sure, if you're into Deadpool/Doctor Who/Keeping Up Appearances mash-ups that's fine. Its chronic, but its fine. But I'm talking about the good stuff here. The ones that, even though printed on shitty gildian tshirts that probably cost 17p, you secretly wear as "Your Good T-shirt", the one you'd wear to a job interview hoping theres a guy there that goes "awwwww mate i fucking LOVE Halloween H20, you've got the job."
THOSE ones.
THOSE ones.
Here's a wee list of the 6 best available to you right NOW.
Fright Rags - Aliens (v6)
Check that mother out. Breaking out at you like its escaping Prince's third bathroom.
As per most of these American sellers, the postage to the UK is fairly pricey but i mean, holy shit.
Sometimes you gotta eat ramen for TWO weeks to make good things happen.

Clueless absolutely rules the hardest. And whats more FITTING (hehe nice) than to have scenes and quotes from the film hand drawn in a comic-style strip on a tee? None. You might be a virgin who cant drive, but at least you'll look cool as fuck. (plus its a UK seller so postage is cheap!)
ThatSparrowBoy - Clueless - £20
Pizza Party Printing - Street Trash
Street Trash is basically about Buckfast and Vietnam Flashbacks and people melting so its probably no surprise that i actually own this tshirt. It also helps that the design is rad as fuck and reflects how potent and mmmmelty Street Trash's style is. PPP's P+P is a bit of a stinger but ALL their stuff is really colorful and original and not only that, they send you everything in a self-branded pizza box. How COOL is that?
monstersoutside - Friday Night Lights
Forgive the heinous sizing but the ideas there. WHO WOULDA THOUGHT that mixing up pop culture and hardcore punk would lead to some amazing things? monstersoutside on etsy. Theres alot of X-files/Hardcore punk mashups, Buffy/Death Metal mashups and Seinfeld/NY Punk mashups but the Friday Night Lights one is amazing. Showing how interchangeable the shows most famous line is, that it could easily be a Chain of Strength lyric. Not only that but its pretty fucking neat too!
Clear eyes, empty wallets mare like HOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO
monstersoutside - Friday Night Lights - £12
Pallbearer Press - Possession
Just do it. BE that person. You know the one. The one that tells your 14 year old cousins to watch Possession and ruin their lives forever. Do it. Pallbearer Press do some stark as hell designs, mainly in black and white almost death metal detail, but with slashes of colour to liven it up. This Possession tshirt is the tip of the iceberg for when it comes to gnarly designs from them. check it!
The Illustrated Mind - 80's (by Dave Roswell)
Holy shit I know. Usually tshirts with a multitude of film references on it are an absolute fucking disaster but Dave Roswells 80's tee is something else. Picking aspects or points in films for you to enjoy, not obvious things but a variety. Like the cover of the Dune soundtrack, or facehugger facehugging or the video cover to Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan (Richie made me do the full title) its just a lovingly made thing. The best of it is, theres a 90's one from him too and its JUST as cool.
The Illustrated Mind - 80's (by Dave Roswell) - £23
So aye, there you go. Put it on the credit card, don't tell your partner, sell yer toenails on fetlife, buy these tees. If not, have a nice wee peruse of the sellers, ye might find your next "Church Tshirt".
