Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 102

 June 21, 2016, 06:24:18 PM

I'm home sick today. Waaaagh!

Anyway, I was working on my next posting and there were just too many posters (14 so far). So, since I like to post 10 or fewer at a time, I decided to just slap these extraneous (and kind of dull--but then, there's not really much to get excited about in the next regular post either) four on here as an "I'm home sick BONUS POST"!



PAGAN ISLAND:

I had no idea what this movie was---and it was really nothing I needed--but it looked cheesy and quasi-tiki...and dig the stupid monster. Ha!





ISLAND WOMEN :

Whipped by hurricane passions...in the sin center of the Caribbean. Ha!  ISLAND WOMEN! Another poster I didn't need that was cheap. Kind of fun. Whatever.





THE INVINCIBLE GLADIATOR :

As you know, I like my old Hercules-type movies from the 50s and 60s. This poster is kind of lame---just black and white, no color. I just recently got a double-feature combo poster with this as a second feature--also black and white.  Whatever.



POPSTAR--NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING:  I won this poster on emovie on June 16th...while I was watching the movie in the theater. It was the last night it was in town--it bombed big time. (I was the ONLY ONE in the theater...NO ONE would go with me. ha!) I thought it was okay---sort of like an updated SPINAL TAP. I dig mockumentaries, and while it wasn't hilarious, it was okay. I only bid on the poster because I was off to see the movie. I didn't expect to really win it. I got it for my max bid of $8. Ha! Guess it is more unpopular than I thought. But really--I thought the movie was okay.




Oh, what the heck? Here are a few more (a BONUS bonus posting). Again--nothing too exciting (SNORE!).



JACK FROST (lenticular):

I never saw this movie...it sounded dumb (and I would much rather watch the horror movie they ripped off with nearly the same plot device and the same title, JACK FROST). Michael Keaton gets killed and comes back as a snowman? Snore. But I was not going to let a lenticular poster go by at such a cheap price. SNAG!







BAGHEAD:

I saw this movie a few years ago. I don't remember it all that well, but I THINK I liked it. It was about a small group of people who go to a cabin in the woods to write a fictional horror movie about a killer who wears a bag on his head...and, coincidentally, a killer who wears a bag on his head shows up. Huh? Exactly.





CONQUEST OF THE PLANET OF THE APES :

I already have a copy of this poster. However, it was going pretty cheaply so I picked it up. The original APES series is still pretty cool.





I SAW THE DEVIL :

I have never seen this film, but I've heard good things about it.



Happy poster shopping. Hopefully you are scoring better things than I have lately.

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

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023 #8

  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
