Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 157

May 03, 2017, 12:08:53 AM



Hi there.  Thanks for visiting. I am on a little vacation. I'm in Las Vegas currently and today I had the amazing pleasure of meeting Rich, owner/operator of MoviePosterBid.Com. Rich was kind enough to chat for a while, show me his amazing, poster-packed warehouse, and share some of his treasured personal collection with me. How super fab!  Here we are below with a peek at his warehouse:



Thanks again, Rich. It was a great honor.

Cheers!

I am back from my trip (which was AWESOME!). I've worked for a few days, now I have a few days off. Today I went and picked up the spook show poster I had framed at Michael's for 70% off--which was still CRAZY EXPENSIVE! Crap-O-Rama!  It looks STUNNING...and it's so BIG. I was planning on putting it where my TERROR IN THE HAUNTED HOUSE poster is---but I need to get bigger nails/hooks. It just ripped the other one right out of the wall. But it looks incredible.




I am still taking a break from poster postings for the summer...but while I was out (April 27 - May 5th), I had a few things I had snipes on that closed. UGH!  Here they are (just to get them documented and out of my hair). I also didn't realize it, but when I bought that ROGUE ONE poster (back on my May 1st post), it came with 19 (!) other posters. Most of them I'll get rid of (EXPENDABLES 3 anyone?), but I'm including a few others from the batch here because---why not? But this is by no means a regular poster posting. It's a "clearance posting" if any thing. I'm not even going to bother to comment on them...except maybe the last two. Take a look or don't bother:

THE MUMMY (2017 remake advance):



THE LAST WITCH HUNTER:



SIN CITY-A DAME TO DIE FOR:



SCHOOL DAYS:



KONG-SKULL ISLAND:



AGENT 0038-24-26 (aka A RAVISHING IDIOT snipe retitle 40x60):



HOUSE ON SORORITY ROW:



FLESH GORDON (British quad):



THE CORPSE EATERS:

I already have one of these, but am glad to pick up a spare. The movie is a low-budget regional rarity NOTLD rip-off that apparently played the drive-in circuit for a while in the early 1970s. There is a DVD available of the only surviving copy of the film (although it is reportedly a cut version, clocking in at less than an hour in length). It's not anything great--but the poster is cool.



THE AMAZING TRANSPLANT:

Another spare copy. This is the movie that introduced me to the bizarre film making world of DORIS WISHMAN. I had been looking for a copy of this poster for more than a decade (did one even exist?) when one popped up one day and I made it mine. For the longest time, it was the only copy I had ever seen until my recently dead friend's collection started showing up. I passed on his copy as it had red ink writing on the back that bled through. Then I spied this copy. Ooooo. The movie is crap...but amazing in its own craptastic way. And the poster is RARE (obviously) so I snagged this copy. Glad to have it.



Okay, that SHOULD hopefully be the last stray posters i have to post until i come back with my regular poster posts in the fall (well---except for those random posters in that lot of 20 I'm not going to even bother with...). From here on out, I am focusing on my WANT LIST,  which I have posted below. It's kind of a mess (I just copied/pasted from my drafts page I keep it on).  When I come back, I HOPE to only have posters from this list (which, if you read it, you'll see there really is a lot of wiggle room). In fact, I already snagged one of the titles on here I'll save to share in the fall when I come back.

Hi. I'm B-A-C-K!  Just for a quick moment. Zowie! It feels weird knowing the 15th came and went withOUT me putting up a post of new posters. I really have not been shopping. Since I stopped just buying randomly, I have acquired one poster from my "want list" (which I'll post in the fall when i come back) and one other (below), which is kind of a cheat...because it was not on the list. WHY did i get it then? Because A) I love John Waters movies and by default, am interested in his "star" Divine...and B) I gave a little bit of money to help finance this flick on Kickstarter or IndieGoGo or something. (My name is listed in the end credits under "Perverts" in the lower right-hand corner on one of the two or three pages of "Perverts". "Shawn 'Monster A GoGo' Gadberry". Ha!) So i wanted it for that reason. I'd prefer an American one sheet---but the only one I've seen is far more money than i want to spend on it. So I got this small French one when I came across it. I'm posting it here now just to get it out of the way...



The real reason I'm on today is below. 

Okay---the reason I'm taking my semi-hiatus is, as I've said, to organize my posters, catalog them, pull some for auction and hang them. I still have a long, LONG way to go. BUT I did get some more up last night. These are in the dining room over the buffet table. Sorry for the crap on the buffet and the folding chair in the photos. The house is all torn up at the moment---so many projects. But I thought I'd share. I went very old school in there as i didn't want to upset anyone visiting who may be eating (I mean, do you really want to be looking at a ZOMBIE with maggots in its eye socket while eating a casserole of some kind? Ha!

Anyway---here they are. They may not be perfectly straight (grr), but I love being able to SEE them every time I go on there.




okay--thanks, as always, for looking. I'll be back when I have MORE updates.



CHEERS!

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
