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 2024 #5

  And I'm back... This, I think, will be my final post of new posters. I had a few leftover posters from last time...and got others to fill out this post and get this done. I can't afford anything anymore and really, with my diminishing health, I should STOP collecting.  TANYA'S ISLAND: This was a cheap grab. I've never seen the movie, but have long wanted this poster. It's so doofy looking. This movie has been on my radar since its release--and it is amazingly hard to find. (As I said, I have NOT seen it yet.) From what I understand, it's basically KING KONG, but with a normal-sized ape (aka man in a bad moneky suit--based on the pictures I've seen) and a bit naughtier. (Hence the R-rating.) D.D. Winters is better known as Vanity, Prince's protegee back in the 80s. She apparently spends a good deal of the time naked. It's supposed to be bad. (No surprise.) I'd still like to see it. HOT DOG: THE MOVIE: I don't know why I bought this. I'm...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2024 #4

  Hello. Welcome back. Today's offerings are...rather unexciting for the most part. As I've said many times before, my poster-buying power has been greatly diminished. I fear my post-buying days are wrapping up, too. The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show may be finally coming to a close in the near future. For now though, here's the latest of what I have to share with you today: KING FRAT: This was a fairly cheap poster--but supposedly rather rare? But really, it's not much to look at. I bought it because... I remember when this obscurity came out. Although I never saw it, it appeared to be some low-rent ANIMAL HOUSE wannabe. I was always curious... I bought it on disk (with THE CHEERING SECTION) on a clearance sale for old CODE RED products. (I guess that company went out of business?) I haven't watched it yet as I read the disk was taken directly from two very badly worn VHS sources. Oh well. I'll get to it someday. Maybe. The poster will go in a drawer. Whoopie... STA...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2021 #11

  Hi! Welcome to the 11th--and possibly LAST--- Shock-O-Rama Poster Show of the year --at least for several months. I'm busy packing for a move and up to my armpits in posters. (Details below.) UGH! I mean, I may buy more...but I don't have the time, money, and I want to be done with poster packing. Speaking of which, you may notice there is more than my usual 10 posters. Instead of holding back posters for some future posting (which may not be for months--if ever. My health issues keep rearing their ugly heads.), I'm posting everything I've gotten since last time. Take a peek or don't. I'm not feeling so well, which explains my rush to get this posted and the use of some online photos to illustrate today's posting. I'm going to go lay down. (Don't mind me...) Go ahead and take in the show: SHARKWATER EXTINCTION: I love the JAWS flicks, the rip-offs, and bad shark movies in general. This looks like it's probably a documentary--not a bad shark mov...
