Just a quickie... (Gotta get ready for work). Here are some recent acquisitions -- just 10 -- that aren't that exciting, but whatever. Here they are:
SPHINX:
A British one sheet for "Sphinx".
TRON LEGACY:
Not that I saw it or have any interest in it (and no idea what I was thinking when I bought them), but here are two different posters for "Tron Legacy":
THE GALLOWS:
The recent horror flick (that's not very good) "The Gallows" was filmed entirely around Fresno and the surrounding area. The directors have been promoting it at a local theater since it came out. Yesterday I was at that theater seeing another bad horror flick ("Vatican Tapes"--blah), and when I exited, there were the directors, sitting at a table in front of the actual gallows set piece in the lobby, autographing mini-posters. The film is just about done--it only plays one showing a day at that theater, at 10pm, yet they were there promoting it until it is completely gone. (Don't they have anything else to do?). Anyway, here is my signed mini-poster.
ADAM AND EVE: THE FIRST LOVE STORY:
"Adam & Eve: The First Love Story"...Oh my stars! I actually saw this movie. (I was suckered into seeing it under the title "Adam and Eve Vs The Cannibals"! Ha!). It was jaw-droppingly bizarre-O! It was ridiculous---a fake killer bear, blue people, killer pterydactyls, cannibals (for about 5 minutes--that's all!) etc. Hilarious! Not wild about the poster--it's not the cover art for the video--but those are the actors. Guys may note that Eve is showing, uh... her "forbidden fruit". Ladies may take note that Adam may be wearing a loin cloth because he may be too excited to safely fit in a fig leaf. Not a great poster, but had to get something on that doofy, goofy flick.
I'm outta time. I'll get the rest later (there are more than 10 new ones, but I was trying to be brief and squeeze those 10 in before work).
More later...

I'm back to finish/expand on the post I started a while back. I've been on a vacation I could NOT afford, but...
Speaking of things I can not afford, although I'm still NOT ready to talk about what I bought yet (What the hell was i thinking?), I will say that I am now in such a financial hole i don't even preview auctions any more. They are just too tempting. All of the emails I get about auctions I ignore. I don't dare look or I'll try to buy-buy-BUY more...which i can NOT do. Jeepers!
Anyway, here are some more of the things I was going to share last time...
RED RIDING HOOD:
I hated this flick when I saw it in the theaters. It had so much potential, but it missed the mark, I felt. Why do I have the poster? It (and several other things in today's posting) came in lots I got fairly cheaply. whoopie do.
RETURN TO NEVERLAND:
I also saw this in the theater--don't remember a thing about it. Bland poster, but again, part of a cheap lot.
THE THREE MUSKETEERS:
The recent 3D "Three Musketeers" was a flop-a-roo. I saw it just before it died off entirely (in 2D, alas...). Oddly enough, I liked it. Yes it was mindless, but it was also fun. The poster is worth nothing, but it was also part of the lot...which is probably why I bid anything for it at all.
RAMPAGE:
Is this based on the Night Stalker serial killer? I'm not sure what this movie is. It's William Friedkin, but I don't think I've heard of it before. It was in a lot. Hmm.
FUTURE FORCE:
I have no idea... LOT poster. Next...
ATLANTIS: THE LOST EMPIRE:
I've two posters for Disney's non-classic animated flop "ATLANTIS: THE LOST EMPIRE" (more trash from the bargain basement lot-o-rama I won):
FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET:
I also got the one sheet for Dario Argento's "FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET". It's one of his giallos, right? I've never seen it.
ARENA:
Another lot poster---looks like cheesy crap-a-rama!
PRINCE OF DARKNESS:
Although I already have one, I also scored another copy of John Carpenter's "PRINCE OF DARKNESS" one sheet. WHY? I have no idea. I didn't even like the movie...
That's enough for this post. I hate to post more than 10 posters per post. But I have a lot more junk...er, stuff to share. All coming soon---eeek!
CHEERS!
