Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 90

March 24, 2016, 02:18:03 PM

Hi there. Thank you all for visiting.

Here are the two posters I "won" last night via sniping (which I had forgotten about). I just want them off the slate so I can try and jump start the promise to myself to buy only things I NEED. Fingers crossed I can stick to it. In the meantime, here are these:


 THE INVINCIBLE GLADIATOR and THE GIANT OF METROPOLIS combo:

Hmm. Well, maybe I DID "need" this one. I have a collection of those old Hercules-type movies from the 60s. This is a double-bill, but both films were first run here in the US (at least I think so. I've never seen US posters for either separately). I might actually have this poster already--or maybe I've just seen it before and was outbid? I have no idea...  But now that it's on my thread, I'll KNOW I have it if I encounter one again.





THE BRASS BOTTLE:

I've been meaning to track down this flick. THE BRASS BOTTLE was a genie in the bottle tale that starred Barbara Eden from 1964. It's relative success as well as that of BEWITCHED paved the way for the I DREAM OF JEANNIE television series---with Eden (who is NOT the genie in BRASS BOTTLE) an almost natural casting choice. I'm curious about the film and the poster is fun and whimsical...I didn't need it but it's still nice.



Okay--now the slate is really, REALLY clean. There is one poster on my snipe list--it's on my list of things I "need". If I get it--great. It'll be part of my April posting. If I don't it them--no big deal.  But then there is this weekend's big HA auction. EEEEK! I may have to go snipe some things there. I work this weekend so sniping's my best bet. I hope I LOSE them all. Ha!

Anyway--thanks for visiting.

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...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #11

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...
