JMichaelRoddy haas just offered to do one on another thread.  The only other one I've seen out there is an annual one from The Museum of Modern Art (believe it or not).  I missed the 2008 one, but the 2007 one was very nice.  Trick is to get one after they go on clearance at their website, but before they sell out.

     The closest I have ever seen is a "Monster Movies" calender published by the Museum of Modern Art.  This year's features posters of the Blob, Mothra, The Fly, Brain that Wouldn't Die, etc.

     Visiting their webpage, I don't see any for 2009....

They've started selling their 2009 calendars online, but I don't see nay genre-themed ones yet.  Keep our fingers crossed.

Look what I found!

http://www.amazon.com/Horror-Film-Classics-2009-Calendar/dp/B001EK94RU/ref=pd_cp_b_1?pf_rd_p=413864201&pf_rd_s=center-41&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=1843377667&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0P6DB0JR5Q8FKB5W9GHQ

Hopefully that link works. It's a classic horror film calendar, complete with a four-disc set of 12 classic public domain horror movies of questionable quality that you already have on three other compilations somewhere else in your collection! Movies aside, the calendar looks pretty cool. Plus, if you look at the "related product"-type section, there's a Hammer Films calendar, and I think I saw some sort of cult-classic or B-movie calendar, as well, while browsing around the site.
