Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 41

September 29, 2015, 10:48:16 PM

Oh my stars! It has been soooooo long since I bought anything. However, just the other day a package arrived for me. Hmm. What could it be? Some fabulous poster I forgot all about? Inheritance from some long, lost relative I didn't know existed? The Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes? No to all of those things. Instead i got an incredible surprise package from... ARI!!!!  Zowie! It was fabulous and soooo unexpected. (He had told me he was sending me a little something--but I never expected something so amazingly cool...and, quite frankly, I had forgotten he said he was going to send something.)

Here is what he sent:

A small poster advertising Ted V. Mikels' first Australian Tour with several nights of his films being shown. The tour never happened--Mikels got sick--but the poster remains.



Then, it's a flyer for a Mikels dounble feature--"THE WORM EATERS" with "THE CORPSE GRINDERS". It also looks like there is a premiere of another film ("FISHING LICENSE") coming right afterwards (Never heard of that one, but I'll have to look it up).





And did you notice? The flyer is autographed by Ted V. Mikels:




Next, it's the press book for "THE WORM EATERS"! Zowie!





...which is also autographed by Ted v. Mikels:




Finally, I got a flyer and a postcard from Ari advertising his memorabilia with personal notes inscribed on the back:






And, best of all, they are autographed by the coolest guy down under himself, Mr. Ari Richards! Wow!





Zowie!  Thank you soooooo much Ari. Your generosity was a wonderful surprise and totally blew me away. You rock!  I love my fabulous surprises!!  YIPPIE!!!

CHEERS!

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2024 #5

  And I'm back... This, I think, will be my final post of new posters. I had a few leftover posters from last time...and got others to fill out this post and get this done. I can't afford anything anymore and really, with my diminishing health, I should STOP collecting.  TANYA'S ISLAND: This was a cheap grab. I've never seen the movie, but have long wanted this poster. It's so doofy looking. This movie has been on my radar since its release--and it is amazingly hard to find. (As I said, I have NOT seen it yet.) From what I understand, it's basically KING KONG, but with a normal-sized ape (aka man in a bad moneky suit--based on the pictures I've seen) and a bit naughtier. (Hence the R-rating.) D.D. Winters is better known as Vanity, Prince's protegee back in the 80s. She apparently spends a good deal of the time naked. It's supposed to be bad. (No surprise.) I'd still like to see it. HOT DOG: THE MOVIE: I don't know why I bought this. I'm...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2024: Special Edition #1

  Welcome back to the Shock-O-Rama Poster Show. This edition is a bit different. As you may know, with certain exceptions that may come my way, I've by and large stopped buying posters. This post isn't about new posters. Instead it is about my first experiencing linenbacking posters.  If you've read any of my posts before, you will know that I am NO FAN of linenbacked posters. However, as my collecting days were slowing/coming to an end, getting things on linen seemed to be the only way I'd be ever able to enjoy certain posters if I wanted them. I now have several linenbacked posters in my collection. I'm about to have four more... I am still working through a move I made 2 years ago. I am trying to get  my poster collection organized in some sort of manner. I am still going through boxes and tubes, trying to frame them or add them to my flat file drawers (or set them aside for either auction or to donate to thrift stores). During one such effort to (stupidly) pull...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2024: #6

I wasn't planning on buying any more posters. On top of all of my other many health ailments, I have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. That is effectively taking me out of the game permanently. However, I have a handful of posters I had purchased or had bids on (but didn't expect to win). These leftovers (and there are -- gasp! --15 of them!?!) I'm not planning on sharing on other poster websites as I usually do. They are just here to be complete. THE ANTICHRIST (Australian) : I love the EXORCIST ripoffs.  THE ANTICHRIST isn't one of the better ones--but, this is a poster I hadn't seen before...and it was cheap. CARNAL MADNESS: Never heard of this one--which is why I bought it. EVIL DEAD (2009 re-release) : Not that I needed this (I have the original one sheet already), I thought it would be fun to pick up this rerelease one sheet from Grindhouse Releaseing. MALIBU HORROR STORY: I had a couple of these already. However, both were damaged (one severely so). I c...
