Here's another 10 from my mad-middle aged (well, I can pretend it's only middle age. Right?) shopping spree. EEEK!
First, I'm reasonably sure I already have this...but why not another copy of the grindhouse-looking, faux stained (blood?) "CEMETERY MAN" one sheet?
I'm absolutely clueless as to why I felt the need to buy the poster for "Clueless"--a movie I never even bothered to see. WHAT-ever....
Knowing my penchant for kiddie matinee posters, you can guess that this "SNOW WHITE AND ROSE RED"/"THE BIG BAD WOLF" poster was on the list. I got it cheap---but the masking tape in the upper corner ruined it. Waaaagh! Still, it will due for now until another comes along...
"CRIES IN THE NIGHT"? No idea. Cheap. End of story.
Years ago I wrote some silly story for a fiction writing class in college. Someone said it reminded them of "The Egg and I"--which I had never heard of. It turned out to be an old movie and the original appearance of Ma and Pa Kettle, who would go on to make several movies. I have the movie collection on DVD but still have not seen it. BUT I have started collecting the posters that go with it. Here is one I just got, "The Kettles in the Ozarks".
Crappy movie, but cool poster---isn't that often the case? "The Amazing Transparent Man" is just such a flick---using well-worn stunts used in the "Invisible Man" series for a bargain basement horror thriller with zero shocks and nil entertainment value. Ha! But the poster is fun and--gimmick alert--it warns that the Amazing Transparent Man will "appear" at every performance of the theater. Ha! Love those old gimmicks!
The Italian poster for "Eye In The Labyrinth" is cool-ish. This is not my poster---the image borrowed from another site just to show you what I got---so please excuse the watermark logo.
An X-rated "Alice In Wonderland"?? Gasp! Shield your eyes and no peeking! This 70s flick played endlessly in R and X versions---and makes a great companion piece for my "Erotic Adventures of Pinocchio" poster I got a while back. (If you haven't seen it, be aware it is VERY dated, low budget, and it's a musical with very bad songs...)
"Book of Life" style C. Never bothered to see it. I got the poster though. Whoopie...
Mario Bava's "Planet of the Vampires"...zowie! I've never seen the movie but have long wanted this poster ever since seeing it on the VHS box cover at a video store back in the 80s. So COOL!
EEEK! It's an Argentinean poster for a Mexican (??) movie. "EL VAMPIRO SANGRIENTO":
Wow! Another vintage poster... I've not seen this either but am guessing the poster is better than the movie? Great monster art! Yikes! "Battle Beyond the Sun"!!! Ha!
Did I say I was only going to post 10 posters? Yikes! It looks like you are getting an unlucky batch of 13. This last one is a mammoth French poster for "Voodoo Black Exorcist". I got it from emovieposter.com so forgive the watermark. I've seen this movie twice at least and remember very little about it, just something about voodoo dancing in an island village and a voodoo zombie on a cruise ship. HUH? Yep--it's a turd. But the poster is fun (in a freaky sort of way...). Get your mojo going...or the VOODOO BLACK EXORCIST zombie may get you! EEEK!
Okay... That's enough for now. Have a cha-cha-cha groovy evening.
CHEERS!!
