Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 126

November 15, 2016, 12:16:03 AM 





Hi there! Happy mid-November. Jinkies. The holidays will soon be upon us. Heck, Thanksgiving is only 9 days (?) away. And I do not want to even think about Christmas yet. Yikes!

Anyway, as usual, here are 10 new posters I recently acquired. These are about as exciting as the last bunch...in other words, they are NOT exciting at all. ho-hum.  Enjoy or don't.

And now, posters away...

CHEERS!



BODY CANDY:

Did I need this? No. Although I do like the artwork of a girl in a candy wrapper. Clever. Never saw the flick though.





CARNY GIRL:

I know it's just some old nudie poster...but I really liked/wanted CARNY GIRL. Something about it reminded me of my OLGA movie posters...albeit at a carnival. I didn't need this though...And I've seen at least two others since I got this one. Ha!





FANTASIA (British quad 1982 re-release):

I totally dig this 1982 re-release of Fantasia. The demon from the NIGHT ON BALD MOUNTAIN segment is awesome. It really makes the quad for me. Fantasia was one of the earliest movies I remember seeing (at the long-gone but sooooo epic WINCHESTER DRIVE IN in San Jose.. They had like 6 or 7 screens....just amazing!



S.O.S. TITANIC ( French ):

Think I missed this 70s version of the Titanic re-telling. Cool little French affiche though.



THE GREAT DIAMOND ROBBERY:

I have no idea why i bought this. It was back in September during the move when I was withOUT the internet. There was an auction. I jumped on with my phone (which I hate) and bid randomly on a bunch o' stuff...like this. Hmm. The best part about it for me is the woman. She looks to me like if they made WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE when Jane Hudson was in her early 30s and trying for a comeback---instead of waiting until she was much older.





SIREN OF BAGDAD:

Another auction item i should NEVER have bid on. It's in too rough of shape for me (now that I can see it on a larger screen besides my phone). This was from the same auction as the one above--but with rips and ...ugh. I'll re-sell this one soon.





A SWINGIN' SUMMER:

A BEACH PARTY knock off...withOUT Frankie & Annette. I love my BEACH PARTY movies (someone has to, right?) ---have all of the posters (of course) and a few of the other knock-offs...why not this one as well?


ONE SPY TOO MANY:

One of the many movies made from recycled MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. TV episodes and  released to theaters. Zowie! I have a foreign one (Australian?) but I think this is my first US one sheet. I've only ever seen one episode of THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. (guest starring Sonny & Cher as a fashion designer and a model!), but I do have the series on DVD and will watch it...eventually.



THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY:

Ahhh...the trouble with this poster is it is also one of the ones I bid on while without internet...and should have known better. The condition is too bad for my taste. I'll be getting rid of it. Oh well...





LOVE NEST:

Not in the best condition, but...this is my very first Marilyn Monroe one sheet (NOT counting re-releases and foreign re-releases for things like SOME LIKE IT HOT or ALL ABOUT EVE). Also bought during the same auction where I had to use my phone...although there are issues with it, I am thrilled to have it.

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
