Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 70

December 12, 2015, 01:58:08 AM

Hi there.

Here's some new things:

ASTRO ZOMBIES:

I already had the re-release poster (which is very cool, with an Astro Zombie with a long machete going after a girl), but never dreamed i'd someday get this wild first release poster. Psycho-tronically groovy, baby! Zowie!

THE INVISIBLE BOY (Early 70s Re-release):

Yes, it's a "kiddie matinee" poster for a re-release...but it still features Robbie the Robot.

MATANGO-ATTACK OF THE MUSHROOM PEOPLE (Italian):

Zowie! I LOVED (and was weirded out by) this movie as a kid...kind of like a strange Japanese GILLIGAN'S ISLAND with a gruesome twist. I looked for a US one sheet for years before I realized the film had gone straight to TV here...and there was no theatrical release. Imagine my pleasant surprise when i came across this Italian poster. Mamma Mia! What a find.

TESTIMONY (Ghana):

Yep, i got myself a second Ghana poster. For some reason though, i'm just not as passionate about this one as i was about my first one... But it's still awesomely awful yet primitively cool. But what is "Testimony"? Never heard of it.

NEKROMANTIK (German):

Oh my stars! This is a find. This is a German poster for the bizzare-O German flick about a girl who has an affair with a corpse. Really!

DERANGED:

Speaking of necrophilia...this is the one sheet for DERANGED, one of the many horror flicks (PSYCHO, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, THREE ON A MEATHOOK, and the Buffalo Bill character from SILENCE OF THE LAMBS) that was based on Ed Gein...but this one comes closest to the real story.

THE SLASHER:

I had NEVER heard of this when i ran across this. Cool yet dated graphics---with a very young Joan Collins! Ha! I dig it.

ISLAND OF THE DOOMED:

I actually already have a copy of this poster...one of my earliest posters actually. My original one is not in the best of shape...so this is an upgrade version. I've NEVER seen this film, but just ordered an Elvira Movie Macabra disk that has it on it. I'll never forget the clutching horror, i'm sure. Ha!

THE WIZARD OF OZ (British Quad re-release):

OZ-some! This is kind of a cool re-release poster for the BFI WIZARD OF OZ re-release in England a few years back. Very colorful and who doesn't like OZ???

FREAKS and DEVIL DOLL (British quad re-release combo):

Wow! FREAKS is impossible to get any paper on...except maybe for this nifty 2002 British quad re-release (with co-feature DEVIL DOLL!!) Freaky baby! I'll take it.

And now, off to bed with me. I worked all day, my feet stink and I'm tired.

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...

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...
