Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 134

January 01, 2017, 12:42:57 AM





Happy New Year and...ARGH!  This is my 2nd attempt at making this post. Just as I was finishing up the 1st attempt, I somehow DELETED it. GRRR! (Now i have to figure out which posters were on here and which I've already posted. OOOPS!)

THE GIRLS FROM THUNDER STRIP:

I don't know if I am thrilled to get this or not. I can't tell if the art is cool or CREEPY. Those heads, especially the one on the left, are so big with big eyes. Weird....




WIZARDS:

Something else I didn't really need. Joy... But I did see the flick. Bakshi (sp?) is collectible, no?





DEATH BED:

This strange little curio has been on my radar for a while...but I always seem to miss it. NOT this time. MINE!  Now to track down the movie. Is this any good? Death Bed...sounds like mine. I always seem to have trouble falling asleep (like now... It's late and I can't sleep. So I'm having a glass of whiskey and typing these descriptions again.... Joy... NOT!)





DRACULA SUCKS:

Speaking of curios, here is an X-rated Dracula movie starring golden age porn stars like John Leslie, Annette Haven, John Holmes, Kay Parker...and Reggie Nalder. What???  Nalder, star of THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH, MARK OF THE DEVIL, and SALEM'S LOT appears (in a --thank god--non-porno role) as a Van Helsing-type role.  This was filmed at Scotty's Castle in the Mojave Desert and re-released in an edited R-rated version as LUST AT FIRST BITE.





THE HOLY MOUNTAIN (Japanese B2):

I love Alejandro Jordowosky. He is one of my all-time favorite directors, based on only three films alone; EL TOPO, HOLY MOUNTAIN and --my favorite--SANTA SANGRE.  I recently got a German EL TOPO poster and I have a video poster for SANTA SANGRE (which I prefer to the theatrical US version....but if I were able to snag one, I'd still buy it.). So I am thrilled to FINALLY score some paper for HOLY MOUNTAIN--a super psychedelic surreal movie that has to be seen to be believed. It's freakin' bizarre yet AWESOME.





OUT OF SIGHT:

Groovy, baby. I've never seen this flick but have long coveted this poster, which features a super duper custom car created by George Barris (creator of the 60's Batmobile, the Munster Koach, and other swell cars). I've never seen this flick, but it looks like a James Bond beach movie. Kowabunga!




FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH (Thai):

This I bought from PHIL (aka OcularBeing) right here on the website in the For Sale section. (Thank you!!!!) I am broke and really need to curb my poster spending this year. BUT, I saw this posted and somebody (I think it was MIKE aka MWRIGHT) who had posted a copy of the Thai FAST TIMES on my thread (and, much like TED's posting of THE FEARLESS VAMPIRE HUNTERS inspired me to get THAT poster when he posted it on my thread). I went for it. I ended 2016 with a doozy...that i HOPE photobucket does NOT censor. Ha!




LEGEND OF THE WOLF WOMAN:

I do not know this movie, but I liked the poster. It's very colorful. Is the film any good? A true story so brutal and horrifying it was kept from the public for over a century...and kept from me even longer! Yowza!





THE MUMMY'S CURSE (British quad 70's re-release):

Not the prettiest of posters...hmm. This 70's British quad re-release for THE MUMMY'S CURSE is less than stunning--far less.But with so little paper on the Universal monsters, I'll take it.




FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE WOLFMAN (British quad 60s re-release):

Another less-than-stellar British quad re-release, this time from the 60s. I'll take it because it's a Universal monster flick...but the design is very disappointing. The US re-releases were far more interesting...and that usually isn't necessarily the case. Oh well... Que sera sera. No one asked me for my input.






Okay--thanks for popping by and having a look. HAPPY NEW YEAR and may 2017 be the YEAR you get THAT poster you have been after the longest.



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: 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: #6

I wasn't planning on buying any more posters. On top of all of my other many health ailments, I have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. That is effectively taking me out of the game permanently. However, I have a handful of posters I had purchased or had bids on (but didn't expect to win). These leftovers (and there are -- gasp! --15 of them!?!) I'm not planning on sharing on other poster websites as I usually do. They are just here to be complete. THE ANTICHRIST (Australian) : I love the EXORCIST ripoffs.  THE ANTICHRIST isn't one of the better ones--but, this is a poster I hadn't seen before...and it was cheap. CARNAL MADNESS: Never heard of this one--which is why I bought it. EVIL DEAD (2009 re-release) : Not that I needed this (I have the original one sheet already), I thought it would be fun to pick up this rerelease one sheet from Grindhouse Releaseing. MALIBU HORROR STORY: I had a couple of these already. However, both were damaged (one severely so). I c...
