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 2024: Special Edition #1

  Welcome back to the Shock-O-Rama Poster Show. This edition is a bit different. As you may know, with certain exceptions that may come my way, I've by and large stopped buying posters. This post isn't about new posters. Instead it is about my first experiencing linenbacking posters.  If you've read any of my posts before, you will know that I am NO FAN of linenbacked posters. However, as my collecting days were slowing/coming to an end, getting things on linen seemed to be the only way I'd be ever able to enjoy certain posters if I wanted them. I now have several linenbacked posters in my collection. I'm about to have four more... I am still working through a move I made 2 years ago. I am trying to get  my poster collection organized in some sort of manner. I am still going through boxes and tubes, trying to frame them or add them to my flat file drawers (or set them aside for either auction or to donate to thrift stores). During one such effort to (stupidly) pull...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2024: Special Edition #2: The Best of 2024

Well, 2024 is coming to a close. It's time once again to go through the year's purchases and touch on the favorites I picked up through the year. This was a light year for purchases for me--and next year I expect will be even more sparse, if there are any at all. But I was able to eek out 10 (actually 11) faves for 2024 and here they are: (Honorable Mention) HOUSE OF THE DEAD: I don't have much this year to warrant an "honorable mention". I would probably have used this poster in the #10 spot...except the one there I had been after for sooooo long (despite the movie turning out to be snore-inducing when I finally saw it). This poster I had never seen before--not am I familair with the movie. it probably sucks, but I liked the artwork on the poster---so that is why I chose to include it--honorable mention or not. 10):   THE MONSTER OF PIEDRAS BLANCAS  and  OKEFENOKEE  (combo) : I have been after this poster for decades--long before I ever saw the yawn-inducing film...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2024: #7

  Welcome back! I certainly NEVER expected to be back with another Shock-O-Rama Poster Show, yet here I am. Sure, maybe a "special edition" (about hanging posters or framing them, etc.) would have popped up--but one with "new" posters? No. I have cancer and have been going through chemo for the last four months. Why buy posters if I wind up dead? I resisted for a long time, but...here I am, binging (and mostly on CRAP!). There are 14 here...instead of my ususual 10. I haven't been keeping track of the (utter trash) I've been buying. So, as best I can figure out, for better or worse (mostly worse), these are my new purchases since May or June. I am pulling this together as I realized it's the end of the year--and a "best of 2024" should happen. O' the fun... NOT! I'm trying to recover from my last chemo treatment even now --and all I want to do is be in bed. THE BRAIN FROM PLANET AROUS: Several pieces I ended up with are in poor shape an...
