The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2018 #5*#

Hi there!  Welcome to another poster posting.

It's April 2nd, 2018! This post is to celebrate the THIRD ANNIVERSARY (April 2, 2015) of  my thread (on another site. Ha!).  I don't have much for a post, but I wanted to get something up anyway for the occasion. Hooray!


RAMPAGE:

I have no idea what this is. Dwayne Johnson? UGH. With the giant ape looming behind him, I had hopes it might be KING KONG or, at least, MIGHTY JOE YOUNG-ish? Based on the fact it is apparently based on a video game of some sort, I have a feeling I bought a turd poster I don't need. Oh well.





WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY (re-release):

I already have a copy or two of this poster...why not another? I love this film. Soooo much better than the Johnny Depp/Tim Burton version. And...did I hear it was being remade AGAIN? UGH! 






THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG:

Can you go wrong with a Disney poster? Especially one featuring the first African-American princess in the Disney stables? Hopefully it will go up in value? I've not seen the film, but...






DIE ANOTHER DAY (Advance):

I liked this Bond outing, even though the Bronsan Bonds are kind of getting the short end of things. It was cheap.






MEN IN BLACK:

I was never a fan of this series...but I saw it and a sequel. But, it was inexpensive and the first of the series. Why not?






STAR WARS: ROGUE ONE:

Ugh! I'm not even a STAR WARS fan...but I thought I should get one for resell down the road...





STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI:

Ditto. See above.





THE CURSE OF THE AZTEC MUMMY (Mexican):

Oh my STARS! How excited I am about this one. This is my LEAST favorite film in the AZTEC MUMMY series (it's a shameless retread of the first movie, all told in flashback!). It's also my least favorite poster for the trilogy, but the posters are IMPOSSIBLE to find. I now have this one and the third/final poster, ROBOT VS THE AZTEC MUMMY (click HERE for the post where I share it. There are other great posters in there as well.) I just need the first one now. Ooooo. Yahooo!







THE SHAPE OF WATER:

Winner of Best Picture, I am thrilled to have a copy of the poster for THE SHAPE OF WATER. I really enjoyed the movie---except for that weird fantasy song and dance sequence that I didn't think belonged at all. Hopefully it becomes a classic and the price of the poster only increases with time (with my luck, that probably won't happen, but...).



And that is it for now. THANK YOU for three great years. 

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...
