Gotta get to bed--eeek! But here are 10 more:
"COUNT DRACULA AND HIS VAMPIRE BRIDE"---the last of the Christopher Lee Drac's and my first poster in the series. (It's also the cheapest and most easily available... Ha!)
The latest "WIZARD OF OZ" re-release (G-version). Yes, like everyone else, I have one too. But did you see it? SO AWESOME in 3D and restored! WOW!
While I have all of the James Bond one sheets (truth be told, most of the older ones are the 80s re-release versions) and the combo re-release posters. I am missing ONE combo poster. But this one, the Fantastic Bond Sale with "Thunderball" and "From Russia With Love" was the poster that brought it down from needing two to only needing one. Yahoo! LOVE this!
Grindhouse time again... A week or so ago I got the one sheet for the 80s cult hit "Silent Night Deadly Night". A long while back I also picked up the one sheet for the awful sequel (it played theatrically? Apparently the answer is YES)--"Silent Night Deadly Night 2". This has to be rare-ish. But who'd want it? I do.Ha!
When I was a kid, I remember seeing this film advertised in the newspaper, only where I lived it was called "Cry of a Hooker" instead of "Cry of a Prostitute". The title always struck me as funny. NOT because the hooker is crying/hurt, but because I interpreted cry as in "call" like "call of the wild" or "cry of a wolf"...and I always wondered what the call of a hooker would be. "Hey mister! Got a dollar?" Probably something like that. Anyway, for years I looked for this poster with the "Hooker" title--but have never seen it. I tried to get the "Prostitute" version (only version, I guess) but it always seemed to go higher than I wanted to pay. Then one day it was on for bidding again and no one else bid. It was mine for a dollar. Ha! My version is in nicer condition than shown here--not that it's much of a poster to begin with:
"Swingers"--never seen it and know nothing about it...but I love the young and skinny Vince Vaughn (!!!) offering me a cocktail. How cool if that was in 3D. It would be perfect for a bar area... Maybe someday... Ha!
I'd love to get the one sheet to Veronica Lake's comeback/swan song "Flesh Feast", but I don't want to pay $100 for it. Luckily I picked up this half sheet for hardly anything! Zowie! What a sale!
Gimmick movie!!! "Chamber of Horrors" came with the FEAR FLASHER and HORROR HORN for the frightening bits on the screen (flasher to close your eyes--horn to open them again). I got the poster for the gimmick, but when I finally saw the film...well,why bother? Ho hum.
Another euro poster for an old peplum flick. Oh boy. Apparently this was called "SAMSON AGAINST THE SHEIK" here...with Ed Fury!
The last poster tonight is also a gimmick poster..."The Starlets" was presented in 4D!! HUH??? I don't have a clue how that worked (3D plus...what?), but I had to have the poster...even though it's for an X film. Zowie!
Okay--sleep calls.
Good night
