i would lose the "box of words" at the bottom entirely, run the street all the way up to the viewer at the bottom, creating a large black area, and put your text on that, star-wars style.
the illustration is bizarre and great and everything; the type is the weakest link here

nice retro-psych-new age-scientology-stylee you have there...

furthermore, i have no idea what "take it back outside your door" means
and use a font that says something or feels a certain way

and use type that appeals to artists not potential religious cult members and you'll be good to go!

Thanks. I just wish I would've put more time into the text and put it before this group of artists. I chose a rather bland typeface for the body so that it would be legible at a glance.
But thanks thanks thanks.

yeah loose the boring type, it makes it look like religious propaganda.

posters need to stand out. you are on a good way with the illu but it needs more contrast, more power.
why not use more black?
the type in the bottom (and the box it is in) does make it look anything but a poster imho.
also i don't really like the kerning, too spacious and not very pleasant to read somehow.

yeah and work on the image, use real black, or to make it heavier mix it up with an extra 100% cyan to make it cooler.
also make the lines more consistent.

i agree about extending the street down. and use type that appeals to artists not potential religious cult members and you'll be good to go!
