Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 138

January 22, 2017, 12:01:50 AM

It's a mini-BONUS post. What's the occasion? I just did something REALLY STUPID!

I got home tonight with an email telling me I had won an auction I only vaguely remember seeing online...but have ZERO MEMORY of ever bidding on. It was for a LITHOGRAPH (Grr... WHY didn't I notice that when I bid? I must have just woken up or something and was still mostly asleep. Lithograph is just a fancy term for COPY!!! UGH!!!) of the Bela Lugosi flick MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE.  The ONLY bright spot in this (if you can consider giving up a large sum of money for something you do NOT want) is that I believe I had bid the minimum bid...and NOT the estimated amount it was expected to garner. I was the ONLY bid apparently.  It's 40x30 (a size I do not collect) and apparently in excellent condition---but it's still just a COPY!  What the heck am I going to do with it? GRRR.


CHEERS!

I know we are just a day  or so away from my usual 1st of the month poster update, but I have a few posters I recently framed to share. I know the videos are not popular---that is OKAY. You do NOT have to watch. (However, there are a few posters in it that I have NOT put up on my thread yet. Just an FYI in case you'd like a preview-a-go-go!)  If you click on the link below the video, it will open in a different window and be bigger on your screen. Watch or don't:




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 #4

  Hello. Welcome back. Today's offerings are...rather unexciting for the most part. As I've said many times before, my poster-buying power has been greatly diminished. I fear my post-buying days are wrapping up, too. The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show may be finally coming to a close in the near future. For now though, here's the latest of what I have to share with you today: KING FRAT: This was a fairly cheap poster--but supposedly rather rare? But really, it's not much to look at. I bought it because... I remember when this obscurity came out. Although I never saw it, it appeared to be some low-rent ANIMAL HOUSE wannabe. I was always curious... I bought it on disk (with THE CHEERING SECTION) on a clearance sale for old CODE RED products. (I guess that company went out of business?) I haven't watched it yet as I read the disk was taken directly from two very badly worn VHS sources. Oh well. I'll get to it someday. Maybe. The poster will go in a drawer. Whoopie... STA...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2021 #11

  Hi! Welcome to the 11th--and possibly LAST--- Shock-O-Rama Poster Show of the year --at least for several months. I'm busy packing for a move and up to my armpits in posters. (Details below.) UGH! I mean, I may buy more...but I don't have the time, money, and I want to be done with poster packing. Speaking of which, you may notice there is more than my usual 10 posters. Instead of holding back posters for some future posting (which may not be for months--if ever. My health issues keep rearing their ugly heads.), I'm posting everything I've gotten since last time. Take a peek or don't. I'm not feeling so well, which explains my rush to get this posted and the use of some online photos to illustrate today's posting. I'm going to go lay down. (Don't mind me...) Go ahead and take in the show: SHARKWATER EXTINCTION: I love the JAWS flicks, the rip-offs, and bad shark movies in general. This looks like it's probably a documentary--not a bad shark mov...
