Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 70

December 12, 2015, 01:58:08 AM

Hi there. 

Here's some new things:

ASTRO ZOMBIES:

I already had the re-release poster (which is very cool, with an Astro Zombie with a long machete going after a girl), but never dreamed i'd someday get this wild first release poster. Psycho-tronically groovy, baby! Zowie!






THE INVISIBLE BOY (Early 70s Re-release):

Yes, it's a "kiddie matinee" poster for a re-release...but it still features Robbie the Robot.






MATANGO-ATTACK OF THE MUSHROOM PEOPLE (Italian):

Zowie!  I LOVED (and was weirded out by) this movie as a kid...kind of like a strange Japanese GILLIGAN'S ISLAND with a gruesome twist. I looked for a US one sheet for years before I realized the film had gone straight to TV here...and there was no theatrical release. Imagine my pleasant surprise when i came across this Italian poster. Mamma Mia! What a find.





TESTIMONY (Ghana):

Yep, i got myself a second Ghana poster. For some reason though, i'm just not as passionate about this one as i was about my first one... But it's still awesomely awful yet primitively cool. But what is "Testimony"? Never heard of it.





NEKROMANTIK (German):

Oh my stars!  This is a find. This is a German poster for the bizzare-O German flick about a girl who has an affair with a corpse. Really!






DERANGED:

Speaking of necrophilia...this is the one sheet for DERANGED, one of the many horror flicks (PSYCHO, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, THREE ON A MEATHOOK, and the Buffalo Bill character from SILENCE OF THE LAMBS) that was based on Ed Gein...but this one comes closest to the real story. 






THE SLASHER:

I had NEVER heard of this when i ran across this. Cool yet dated graphics---with a very young Joan Collins! Ha! I dig it.






ISLAND OF THE DOOMED:

I actually already have a copy of this poster...one of my earliest posters actually. My original one is not in the best of shape...so this is an upgrade version. I've NEVER seen this film, but just ordered an Elvira Movie Macabra disk that has it on it. I'll never forget the clutching horror, i'm sure. Ha! 






THE WIZARD OF OZ (British Quad re-release):

OZ-some! This is kind of a cool re-release poster for the BFI WIZARD OF OZ re-release in England a few years back. Very colorful and who doesn't like OZ???






FREAKS and DEVIL DOLL (British quad re-release combo):

Wow! FREAKS is impossible to get any paper on...except maybe for this nifty 2002 British quad re-release (with co-feature DEVIL DOLL!!) Freaky baby! I'll take it.





And now, off to bed with me. I worked all day, my feet stink and I'm tired.


CHEERS!

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023: #10

Welcome back! I certainly did NOT expect to have any further posts with new purchases this 2023 calendar year, but here we are. Granted, most of these are holdover purchases from my temporary poster-buying insanity in October. I’d expected those to be the foundation for whatever post I kicked off the new year with. But now? I had a few more pick ups… Why hold back? Let’s send 2023 out with a real BANG! Christmas came a little early this year. Uh oh… The lights are dimming. Take your seats. Let’s see what I have for you this time… GIRL IN GOLD BOOTS:  Not a great poster, but one I’ve been after for a while. This flick is an exploitationer from legendary B man Ted V. Mikels (CORPSE GRINDERS, ASTRO-ZOMBIES, BLOOD ORGY OF THE SHE-DEVILS, etc.). I saw it years ago. I don’t remember much other than that there is a girl (who wears gold go-go boots) who is a dancer (and maybe sings?) and is somehow involved in the criminal underworld. Like a lot of Mikels’ films…it doesn’t leave an indelible m

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023 #9

  Welcome! Get your tickets and take your seat.The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show is about to begin. I am still disabled and only getting worse…yet, uh, um…I’m spending money on my ADDICTION to posters that I really have NO BUSINESS doing. Why? Because I am STUPID. (But I LOVE staring at them…) Waaaaagh! Anyway—-my stupidity is your viewing pleasure (or however you want to term it…).  Here we go… THE LADY IN THE MORGUE (1942 RE-RELEASE) : This isn't something that I'd usually buy. I've never seen this old mystery/whodunit flick. Despite this being a re-release poster (The original, with completely different art, hails from 1938.), I decided to go ahead and buy this 81-year-old gem for several reasons. I like the monster-ish hands reaching in at the couple. I dig the purple/green color scheme. The old school font is awesome...and one of its co-stars is Barbara Pepper, who brilliantly played Mrs. Ziffel (Arnold the pig's "mom") on GREEN ACRES. Ha! The most important r

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023 #8

  And, what!?! We're B-A-C-K!!! That was...quick. (It just seems that way as I delayed the previous post until I finished my write up on my Something Weird Video adrventure, which I had linked to the page. I've already been working on this one for several weeks.) Truth be told, though, about half of these became mine in a 12 hour period. It is no secret that I am now disabled. I live on a VERY modest income with very little in the bank to fall back on. There is a saying, "You can't take it with you." There should also be a saying that says "You can't enjoy it if you don't have it." That seemed to have been my mindset during a recent eMovieposter auction. Despite the fact that everything was on linen--there were so many titles I wanted. Things were fairly cheap...until the very end. But... Geez! Dipping into my meager savings was... EXTREMELY STUPID and FOOLISH.  But, it happened. Let's take a look: PRO BALL CHEERLEADERS: What the hell is this
