Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 135

January 02, 2017, 01:16:55 AM 


It's after midnight. So what does that mean? It's now January 2nd...or JAN. the 2nd, if you will. What does that mean? It's FAKE JAN DAY! In honor of Geri Reischl, THE BRADY BUNCH VARIETY HOUR's "Fake Jan", people from all walks of life (well, those "in the know" at least) celebrate this most fake of holidays--FAKE JAN DAY! To salute Fake Jan Day 2017, here is a special BONUS post. Grab your cheeseballs (the official food of Fake Jan Day, because it is such a cheeseball holiday) and let's take a look! But as you do, see if you can spot the FAKE JANs as we move along.

Now, on to the special FAKE JAN DAY post:



THE CAPITAL HILL GIRLS:

Never heard of this adults only flick. So why did I buy it? Hello? 3D! I'm such a sucker for a gimmick...




SWINGTAIL:

Speaking of gimmicks and 3D (and suckers)... HA!




LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD AND THE MONSTERS:

Oops! Here I am buying ANOTHER copy (for, unfortunately, a lot more than my first copy). It's an upgrade, as my other copy has a stamp on the back that bleeds through. I dig my kiddie matinee posters and I have all three of the Mexican LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD K. Gordon Murray kiddie matinee US posters. I know you'll think i am kidding, but I really LIKE them. Ha! (I'm sure the movies are atrocious though...)







HAUNTED: 

I'm not sure I ever saw this flick---which, by the cool poster, LOOKS interesting. I may have seen this a long time ago. But at the same time, I think I am confusing this film with something similarly titled called HAUNTS, which came out about the same time. That may be the one I saw. Whichever it was, it was sooooo dang boring. I don't remember anything about a phone booth in a cemetery...so maybe this IS worth tracking down? Hmm... anyone ever see this? What do you think?





THE BURNING:

THE BURNING was one of my first 15 or so posters. I still have my original copy, but the corners have pin holes and, I'm pretty sure, some missing paper. This is an upgrade.





THE JOYS OF JEZEBEL:

Ooooo. I've never seen the movie, but have long wanted the poster for it's wild, sexy and colorful art.






THE SPACE CHILDREN:

I've never seen this Jack Arnold directed sci fi flick, but with its giant brain (?) and all of the kids around it, it kind of makes me think of VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED...although i'm sure it's NOTHING like that. Cool image though.





ORGY OF THE GOLDEN NUDES (aka HONEYMOON OF HORROR):

First off, let me state that the image below is borrowed as I do not think Photobucket would host this image. Golly! I've wanted this poster  since seeing one for the first time for the last year or so---when another dealer had a copy. I tried to get that one, but it was snatched away at the last second. This time I put up a BIG snipe and...MINE! According to the research i did for this poster, it's a re-titling of something called HONEYMOON OF HORROR, which is supposed to be god-awful and tediously boring/incoherent. The ORGY version is supposed to have about 7 minutes of nudity (to make it less boring and incoherent, no doubt. Right, Steve?) that are absent from the HONEYMOON version...but the ORGY version appears to be "lost". (All possible copies are rumored to be in Australia somewhere though...)




BEYOND THE TIME BARRIER:

I thought ORGY OF THE GOLDEN NUDES was going to be my favorite poster of the post...but then I got this one. Ooooo--LOVE the futuristic art on this. The movie is hokey, but still kind of fun. Apparently this is a re-release poster. The original release was by some very small company (can't recall the name) and the poster art was completely different. AIP bought the picture and released it with all-new posters, and probably got it to far more theaters than the other company ever dreamed of getting to. Either way, it's a super cool poster (and it totally captures the look and feel of 2024. Ha!). Yowza!






And now go enjoy a cheeseball or two. Get your Fake Jan on. Have a fun day (or at least fake it).

HAPPY FAKE JAN DAY!

CHEERS!

Here is an extra special bonus post for FAKE JAN DAY 2017.  This first video is a quickie video of 4 more posters I have framed...including a peek at one I have NOT formerly shown anyone (and won't show until my next post on Friday the 13th!). 32 seconds. Watch or don';t:




This second one is my tribute to Fake Jan Day 2017...  A very AWFUL video in which I embarrass myself to NO END. EEEK! Dare you watch? Turn it down as I (gasp!) sing (off key) and then, just when you think it's over, I make an even BIGGER fool out of myself. O' the horror of it all.

Watch or don't (I vote for DON'T) (Turn your sound DOWN first if you do watch it. EEEK!).




CHEERS!

January 04, 2017, 10:42:53 PM

I'll be back with a BONUS POST on Friday the 13th. In the mean time, here's a mini-bonus post...something I won tonight on MoviePosterBid's movie poster auction (Thank you, Rich):

TOPAZ:

 It's a Hitchcock film, and I have heard of it, but have never seen it  Any good?



I'll see you on the 13th.

Cheers!

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #17

  Welcome back…  This post is one of the weakest entries of late. That is saying a lot, as the previous entry was pretty bad. However, the next entry will be even more pathetic than this one. I’m winding down from my recent purchases… Finally. I can’t afford anything. But let’s take a look at when I have this time, shall we? This will be quick. SURGIKILL (special) : I’m not sure what this is. It’s only 9 1/2 x 8 1/2“ long. It is some promotional piece for Andy Milligan’s “ SURGIKILL”.  “SURGI-What!?! You’ve never heard of it, probably.  I do not know why, but I am an anti-Milligan aficionado. SURGIKILL Was one of his last movies. It went straight to  video. I caught it on DVD. It’s OK… Certainly nothing to write home about. But I couldn’t not get this piece. It is allegedly from Andy Milligan‘s estate…And was cheap. POLTERGEIST I I: Normally, I wouldn’t bother with sequel posters. But this was part of a lot. So why not? The movie itself… Not so good. THE SATAN B...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #16

Welcome back. As I write this, the very tail end of my recent poster-buying mania is coming to a close. Well, I still have to worry about auctions on Thursday of this week, it looks like I only have to worry about one poster. Whether or not I get it remains to be seen. However, at the moment, there are two posters in this post. I have one from recent auctions. One of them, the one that I am most displeased with winning, is fairly obvious. The other one, not so much. The one I may or may not win on Thursday? I think that will be obvious as well by what I intend to write about it should I win it, but we shall see. Can you figure out which posters I want in these last auctions before coming to my senses? Of the 10 title shown here two (or three) of them are from those final crazed auctions. TEENAGE COWGIRLS: What the hell was I thinking? On the tail end of my weird cancer buying spree (inspired by my seemingly surviving it—-although I’m not out of the woods yet—while two longtime friends ...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #14

  And welcome back… With this post, I am hopefully wrapping up all the posters I purchased in my recent mania. ( Actually, as I write this, there are still a few auctions out there. I have bids on that haven’t closed. While I doubt I’ll get anything, there’s always the worry that I will and that those purchases will spill over into another post. Eek!) As per my (sometimes) usual, I’ve got a lot of trash and a few treasures. I also have a very bad headache. So let’s get on with it already… VAN HELSING : This must’ve been a lot purchase. Although it’s based on a character. DRACULA , I had absolutely zero interest in seeing this movie. Zero. TOMB OF THE BLIND DEAD (French) : I have long been a fan of the BLIND DEAD films . To my knowledge, only three of the four were released in the US and have one sheets. The first one, TOMB OF THE BLIND DEAD , was released as just THE BLIND DEAD with a misleading poster image making it seem like a knockoff of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD .   RETUR...
