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 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

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
