Happy ho-ho-holidays! I hope Santa was extra-special nice to you and brought you all of the exciting posters you've been dreaming of all year long. Here are a few goodies I unwrapped...
DEATHSTALKER II:
Since the posters are kind of like Hercules posters, I decided to track down the 4 DEATHSTALKER posters (1-4). Only the first movie was actually released in theaters. The sequels were direct to video...or so I thought. I got a DEATHSTALKER II video release poster...and then stumbled on this one. A theatrical release? SOLD! Never seen any of the movies either...they probably suck.
BEACH GIRLS AND THE MONSTER:
Call it a bash! Call it a ball! Call it a blast! Call it an oops, i really didn't need a 2nd copy! I like this poster--a lot. I somehow found myself bidding on it--even though I already have one...and now I have two. Ouch! Wish I had saved the $$$.
ZOMBIETHON:
Speaking of direct to video, this is an old VHS era poster for Wizard Video's zombie flick "best of" compilation video, utilizing scenes from things like ZOMBIE, ZOMBIE LAKE, OASIS OF THE ZOMBIES, etc. Just seeing the movies by themselves is better...but I have always dug this poster. SCORE!
BAD SANTA:
Ho-Ho-Ho... Yes, Santa is hanging out with three skeezy 'ho"s and is in a drunken stupor once again. Such is the basic premise of BAD SANTA (minus the "ho"s maybe). Not the best Christmas movie--or even a classic. BUT...it inspired a sequel (REALLY?--yep. See below...) and a Christmas posting has to have some sort of Christmas poster...right?
BAD SANTA 2:
Hmm. This was cheap and, of the two designs I've seen, this one is the preferred (over a close up of Billy Bob passed out on a bar). Ho ho ho-hum... We'll see if the movie is any good or not (and how many years has it been since the first one?)...however, I think it came and left already and FLOPPED. Ha!
THE 27TH DAY:
I know nothing about this movie...just have long loved the poster...which always has gone high and escaped my grasp. Cool poster. Is the flick any good?
THE LEECH WOMAN:
No, this is NOT the story of your ex-wife. I never saw this flick, but have coveted the poster for a while. It's always slipped out of my hands...until NOW.
BRIDES OF BLOOD:
FINALLY! After years of searching and trying to get one, i finally have the poster for the first film in the BLOOD ISLAND series. I have MAD DOCTOR OF BLOOD ISLAND and BEAST OF BLOOD and various other BLOOD titles that Hemisphere Pictures tried to pass off as sequels or related films (HORROR OF THE BLOOD MONSTERS, BRAIN OF BLOOD, etc.). The poster art is poorly done--but screams out exploitation gem! Zowie! I'm thrilled with this. (Although I paid far more than I should have...)
THE HOUSE OF USHER:
Ooooo, I am digging this. Classic Vincent Price in the best of the AIP Edgar Allan Poe adaptations. Doesn't the poster art, with it's white tunnel leading down from the surface, look like it inspired the poster art for 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE? Whatever---I am thrilled with this.
ONE MILLION YEARS B.C.:
Oh my STARS!!! I never thought I'd be fortunate to land one of these. It's Raquel Welch and her prehistoric fur bikini in ONE MILLION YEARS B.C. Zowie! I've been after one of these since i was a kid. Yahoo!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Now go away! Be with your families! Enjoy yourself! Ho ho ho! (I'm working today anyway... waaaagh!)
CHEERS!
