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 #12

  Hi there. Yes, I’m back again. Really, I was in a weird, crazed buying frenzy recently. I have enough posters for at least one and a half more posts… But I’ll try to pace myself and hold back a bit. These aren’t that exciting. Actually, neither is the next batch. The batch after that has one or two things I’m especially excited about, but we’ll have to see what trickles in to fill the rest of that post up. But I’m getting ahead of myself. We are on this post. Let’s take a gander at it,  shall we? I hope it won’t be too disappointing. Perhaps there’ll be a poster on here or two that you haven’t seen before. THE QUIET EARTH: While I think I’ve heard of this movie before, and I think I may have seen this poster before, I’m not quite sure. If I have seen this poster before, I don’t think I actually owned it. Like my last post, this has a few posters that were part of several lots. No, I am not posting all of the posters in the lots. Not all of them appealed to me. This one, thou...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #13

Hello. Here we are again. There’s nothing new to see here. Every poster is either VHS-era garbage or something you’ve seen before. There is one outlier that doesn’t seem to belong, but it’s one that I’ve been looking for forever. Even though I wasn’t actively looking for it when I finally got it. Huh? Never mind. Let’s just take a look and see what we have today… CURSE III: BLOOD SACRIFICE (video) :  I don’t know what I was thinking when I decided to track down the posters for THE CURSE series . For those who have never seen it or heard of it, THE CURSE series is a mostly direct-to-video series of horror flick that are NOT related to each other at all, except by title. I have the theatrical (I think) one sheet for the original movie. I’m not sure if I have a copy of the part two poster or not, and I may have copies of parts three and four already… Or not. I am not sure. But here is the poster for CURSE III: BLOOD SACRIFICE. Yes, as you can, guess, it was cheap. Did I see the movie...

Welcome back. Now that the James Bond stuff is out of the way (see my last post), I can trudge to some B-movie stuff. A lot of this stuff came from lot purchases. I have a lot of these posters already, and have shared them in previous posts. Not all of the posters from the various lot purchases will be shared. Don’t panic. I’ve just decided to share these as a way to look back at these B-flicks and reflect on them a bit. THE MEPHISTO WALTZ: This was an early movie in the 70s satanic panic cycle, that was started with ROSEMARY’S BABY in the mid 60s. If you haven’t seen it, you’re not really missing much. What I do remember most from the commercials was a dog with a human head. Imagine my annoyance when it just turned out to be a dog with a mask on its head that someone placed on it as a joke. There was no “human headed” dog in the plot. Alan Alda I identify so much with being Hawkeye on M*A*S*H, that it’s hard to see him in this movie. At least for me, this is an instance where it’s har...
