I am needing help with Day of the Dead (1985) cover. My submission was rejected due to bad title. I have done much searching and cannot find a hires of the title or that particular poster.

This image is decent size, but still looks like crap and do not want to use. I removed the text on mine and added "George A. Romero's" above the title
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here is the one I worked off of:

easy to extract the title.
Hard to find some decent textless unfortunately :(

For the other parts, except for the head it is easy to re-create it too :p

I see that the most accurate font is mandelia. If it helps you too.
Curiously, the main site for the search does not recognize it.

It was easier to make the font using the pen tool :)

Thanks for the help so far! It has been a pain! LOL The background with the circles was the easy part. It's the clean title that I need. I don't have the skills, like some of you do, to extract it from everything else and still look good. Still looking through fonts to find something that will work, but no luck. I did just see that there is a new steelbook edition out with this artwork. But still cannot find a hires file of it.
