Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 45

October 14, 2015, 04:58:31 AM

I'm B-A-C-K with more of my recent purchasing madness to share!

Yes, it's more of my gotta-be-off-my-feet-and-there's-nothing-to-do-but-poster-hunt shopping madness! EEK!  Hang on!

OOPS! I totally forgot about these other international tidbits...

From Poland, my first POLISH posters:


WOMEN DOCTORS:

I know NOTHING about this movie--never heard of it--but what a wild image! Those Poles (is that how you spell it? Pols?) have some bizarre-O posters!




CHILD'S SCENES OF PROVINCIAL LIFE:

Speaking of bizarre-O posters, dig this Polish poster for something called CHILD'S SCENES OF PROVINCIAL LIFE. Huh? Lips biting other lips. What ARE they sniffing in Poland? Jeepers!




From Turkey (and that reminds me, Happy belated Canadian Thanksgiving! Ha!)

JAWS:

Zowie! Once I got myself (finally) a US "JAWS" one sheet, the Turkish version was immediately in my sites. Why? How could it not be with the shark actually EATING a swimmer! Ha! Now the naked girl on the US version is all fine and dandy (How many books did that cover sell alone do you imagine?), but having it actually EAT someone--wow! That's what it's all about.





PIRANHA:

I LOVED the original PIRANHA! For a little low-budget JAWS rip-off, it was fun, had some great tension and some nifty effects. I already have the US one sheet (they used to be soooo cheap!), but always wanted something with this funky alternate artwork. This Turkish one will do.





ZOMBIE:

I also have the US one sheet for "Zombie", but thought since I was getting those other Turkish posters, I'd just snap this one up too. Different art--not the greatest, but not bad.



THE FLASHER:

Back here in the US, I picked up a '70s Harry Reems porn poster, "THE FLASHER": I don't remember what I was thinking when I picked this up. I've never seen it, but it does star Harry Reems (still milking the DEEP THROAT/DEVIL IN MISS JONES notoriety. Isn't he dead now?) and is one of those probably hard to find 70s porn titles from before home video. I don't know--just thought it may be worth something some day.





MUTINY IN OUTER SPACE:

This looks like cheesy fun...and it's a Wolner Brothers Production, so it must be deliciously second rate. Ha! Look at the guy and girl trying to grab a ride (?) on the giant space tentacle! What the heck is that? Ha!





ROBOCOP: 

Yeah... the ROBOCOP series never did it for me. I saw the original and its two sequels in the theaters just because it was something to do--but didn't bother with the recent remake. I just got this, the one sheet for the original movie, as an investment for down the road...






MAY:

Oh my stars! Have you seen this flick? Not many people have. I love this quirky little horror movie. It stars Angela Bettis (and this was before the TV "Carrie" remake she was in). She's deliciously awkward and psycho. Odd little movie--and not to everyone's taste. I loved it. Check it out (or don't). I'm just thrilled to have the one sheet for it. Yippie!





REPTILICUS:

Zowie!  It's another super groovy vintage monster movie poster. Yahoo! I've wanted a REPTILICUS for ages. Sure, it's a poster for a poor man's GODZILLA, but this poor man will never be able to afford a poster for the original GODZILLA!  I have to settle for the knock-offs, and I LOVE the posters for them any way!  Yippie! Yippie!  Yippie!





And now, the bed is calling... Good night! Thank you ever so much for popping by.

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
