The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2017 #10 -- Movie poster update*#



Greetings! I know I JUST posted a short time ago, but I'm b-a-c-k. Not with anything groovy or exciting (Hmmm.), but they are posters just the same.

Let's take a look:

FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 3 3D:

I already have a copy or two of this poster. This was cheap--like under $4---so why not a spare to resell down the road a bit?





THE SWINGING CHEERLEADERS:

I have a few of the "cheerleader"/"pom-pom girls" sexploitation titles from the 70s. Actually, I am thinking this may be the movie that features a young David Hasselhoff in it. Ha! This poster has some visible flaws. It was from a "lot" I got a while back.




DR. SYN (ALIAS THE SCARECROW):

A Disney live-action re-release poster. I saw this as a kid---BORING! Another "lot" item.





BABY THE RAIN MUST FALL:

Steve McQueen? Lee Remick? Don Murray? Wow! Too bad the poster is kind of rough. Another lot purchase.





SMASHING TIME:

Two girls go stark mod! Oh my stars! I saw this in the VHS era and was disappointed. It looks like it had all sorts of potential, but it just went nowhere. Oh well. A lot purchase.





NORMAN...IS THAT YOU?

I never saw this flick, but remember it advertising in the 70s. With Redd Foxx, who was on "Sanford and Son" at the time---or maybe just off of it---it was bound to be hysterically funny. Another of the lot titles.




MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE:

Stephen King's directorial debut...and swan song. FLOP! Starring Mrs. Donald Trump #2 (Marla Maples) and a cool looking gremlin truck. Lots of potential again...but it fell short. Another lot title.




SCALPS:

I have a couple of copies of this poster. It's a poster no one wants, but I dig it. This artist (who is he?) did a lot of other great cheesy art for 21st Century Releasing. 




THE LOST WORLD OF SINBAD:

This is NOT a Sinbad movie. It's a Japanese fairy tale that had been sold to American international, redubbed and was transformed into a Sinbad flick to cash in on the popularity of "The 7th Voyage of Sinbad". I already had this poster (maybe 2 or 3 copies). I do wish I could see the flick too. 




LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS:

Feed me! It's the one sheet for the killer plant musical remake of the Roger Corman cheap-o classic. Yikes!




That was it. Nothing special, as I said. But thank you for taking a look anyway.



CHEERS!

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #17

  Welcome back…  This post is one of the weakest entries of late. That is saying a lot, as the previous entry was pretty bad. However, the next entry will be even more pathetic than this one. I’m winding down from my recent purchases… Finally. I can’t afford anything. But let’s take a look at when I have this time, shall we? This will be quick. SURGIKILL (special) : I’m not sure what this is. It’s only 9 1/2 x 8 1/2“ long. It is some promotional piece for Andy Milligan’s “ SURGIKILL”.  “SURGI-What!?! You’ve never heard of it, probably.  I do not know why, but I am an anti-Milligan aficionado. SURGIKILL Was one of his last movies. It went straight to  video. I caught it on DVD. It’s OK… Certainly nothing to write home about. But I couldn’t not get this piece. It is allegedly from Andy Milligan‘s estate…And was cheap. POLTERGEIST I I: Normally, I wouldn’t bother with sequel posters. But this was part of a lot. So why not? The movie itself… Not so good. THE SATAN B...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #16

Welcome back. As I write this, the very tail end of my recent poster-buying mania is coming to a close. Well, I still have to worry about auctions on Thursday of this week, it looks like I only have to worry about one poster. Whether or not I get it remains to be seen. However, at the moment, there are two posters in this post. I have one from recent auctions. One of them, the one that I am most displeased with winning, is fairly obvious. The other one, not so much. The one I may or may not win on Thursday? I think that will be obvious as well by what I intend to write about it should I win it, but we shall see. Can you figure out which posters I want in these last auctions before coming to my senses? Of the 10 title shown here two (or three) of them are from those final crazed auctions. TEENAGE COWGIRLS: What the hell was I thinking? On the tail end of my weird cancer buying spree (inspired by my seemingly surviving it—-although I’m not out of the woods yet—while two longtime friends ...

  And welcome back… With this post, I am hopefully wrapping up all the posters I purchased in my recent mania. ( Actually, as I write this, there are still a few auctions out there. I have bids on that haven’t closed. While I doubt I’ll get anything, there’s always the worry that I will and that those purchases will spill over into another post. Eek!) As per my (sometimes) usual, I’ve got a lot of trash and a few treasures. I also have a very bad headache. So let’s get on with it already… VAN HELSING : This must’ve been a lot purchase. Although it’s based on a character. DRACULA , I had absolutely zero interest in seeing this movie. Zero. TOMB OF THE BLIND DEAD (French) : I have long been a fan of the BLIND DEAD films . To my knowledge, only three of the four were released in the US and have one sheets. The first one, TOMB OF THE BLIND DEAD , was released as just THE BLIND DEAD with a misleading poster image making it seem like a knockoff of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD .   RETUR...
