Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 110

September 01, 2016, 12:05:49 AM


(* It's still August here in California for a few more hours...but the post is done and it's September in the most of the rest of the world already, so why not post it now, right?  Whoo hoo!)




Happy September!  Yahoo! By the month's end, I should have started to move back into my house!!!!!  What that means is that I'll be able to start working on cataloging and organizing my posters once again. Yippie!!! But that also means I'll have a mortgage to pay and utilities. EEEK!

Now on to the posters...

THE LAST CHASE:

This is held over from one of those bulk lots I got from emovie at the beginning of last month. Who ever heard of this movie? Was it even released? Co-star Chris Makepeace had about 5 minutes of fame and he must have slipped this movie in during  the last few seconds of that 5 minutes. Lee Majors? Burgess Meredith?? And a very large Italian supporting cast? Hmm. I'm curious about this one...not anything great, i'm sure---but a mystery of sorts. Hopefully it's spectacularly awful.





THE DEVIL AND LEROY BASSETT:

Whatever this movie is---I've never heard of it...but I was intrigued enough by the poster to pick it up. It was super inexpensive---which for me is always the right price. Anyone know anything about this flick? Any good?





TRANSMUTATIONS:

Also held over from the bulk lot sale...I couldn't decide if I liked this poster or not. It looks like it would be a piece of garbage film, but there's something about the image that keeps me coming back to it. That's why I held it back. It's kind of cheap--but fun.





INDEPENDENCE DAY (stuyle B teaser):

Just a few weeks back I got my first INDEPENDENCE DAY poster...but there are just soooo many styles of it. UGH!. Here's my 2nd ID4 poster. If I get more--great. If not--c'est la vie. I'm NOT that actively looking for them.





THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER:

Buying Disney is always a safe bet. Even though this movie is generally NOT one of the favorites out there and even though this poster is fairly easy to get, I decided to go for it any way because it was cheap. And Disney.





WALL-E (advance):

Another Disney poster--this time more beloved (I think). I have not seen WALL-E yet, but hope to soon.





SPLASH:

I bid on this half-heartedly, thinking it would go for more. Probably the best/most famous live-action mermaid movie (and one that inspired countless thousands of baby girls to be named Madison) and it went reasonably less than i thought it would. Lucky me, i guess. (But do I already have a copy? Hmm.)





MY BLOODY VALENTINE (Japanese B2):

I didn't need this (did I need ANYTHING on this list?). I was outbid and should have just let it go... Oh well. I kind of dig this B2 as it has a striking image of the killer coal miner from the film. Classic 80s slasher---Japanese style.





BATWOMAN (Turkish 1980 re-release):

Yippie! I've wanted one of these for a long while. There's another BATWOMAN poster I've seen repros of--but never the original for sale. I'll track it down eventually maybe. In the meantime, i have this one. Who knew there were TWO BATMAN rip-off BATWOMAN movies? There's this one and THE WILD WORLD OF BATWOMAN, which i always thought were the same movie...until I actually saw THE WILD WORLD and realized the movie i remember was NOT the same one. The Mexican one (this one) is the one I saw originally.  How fun to finally have a poster of it...albeit Turkish.





MOTHER OF TEARS:

I've been looking for one of these since it came out. Although it's not the best poster ever and the movie was rather disappointing (I actually saw it in a theater, dragged a friend along with me and forced him to watch this crap), it's very hard to find a one sheet for this flick. And it IS part of the Three Mothers trilogy that started with the great SUSPIRIA and continued with INFERNO, So why NOT?



That's it for now (but I've already started working on the NEXT post. EEK!).

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...
