The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2019 #16




What's this? ANOTHER episode of the Shock-O-Rama Poster Show? But I thought it was over with, you say. Well, it is...more or less. (For now...??) However, I had a few situations pop up (I'll mention them below) that caused me to need to shop and, well... that led to a few purchases. To make up a whole post, that required a few more half-hearted purchases and... the results (such as they are) are below.






LASERBLAST (Italian locandia):

I did not need this. At all. It was cheap. ($6?) and featured different images than the US one sheet, but I did NOT need this.





SAM WHISKEY:

I did NOT need this either. I had never heard of a SAM WHISKEY movie (with Burt Reynolds, Clint Walker and Angie Dickinson? I'm guessing it must be crap, then...). Curiosity made me bid.Oops.










I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE:

Okay...this one I did kind of want. No, it is not the I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE from the 70's about the woman who has just broken, cut, chopped and burned 5 men (actually 4 men) beyond recognition... However, as a film with the same name, it is only understandable to be curious about it. No, I have not seen it...but I think it would be good, early 60s sleazy fun.







SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER / GREASE (re-release combo):

I sooooo did NOT need this. (I actually may/probably already have a copy...) What was I thinking (aside from the fact it was cheap)?






CAPTAIN SINDBAD (Italian 2 F):

This is why I felt the need to go poster shopping. A while back I got another copy of this poster in amazing condition. In shipping, something happened to the container it was in. Something jammed into it....and so the poster (which was folded down into 8 rectangles) was torn...in 8 places, ruining the poster. I had to have another and I got this one---although it is not nearly as nice as the previous one had been. Waaaagh!






THE LOVE-THRILL MURDERS (re-release of SWEET SAVIOR):

I have no idea why I felt the need to own this re-release poster. Aside from being inexpensive, the mask thing on the right kind of reminded me of the mask thing on the one sheet for THE FUN HOUSE (the first release of LAST HOUSE ON DEAD END STREET). 






 CANNIBAL FEROX (Italian 2F):

I already have one or two of these...but when shopping for the SINBAD poster, I came across this---so why not?






SINGLE ROOM FURNISHED:

As bad as an actor as she could be, there was something about Jayne Mansfield I have always dug. I've been trying to track down her posters. Although i MIGHT have one of these already, I was not sure. This final film of hers is a low budget affair, but she is really good in it. She died before it was completed. She was playing various characters in the flick and her death is obvious as there is this whole LONG segment without her. 






THE ELECTRONIC MONSTER:

This poster is not that amazing. As I recall (I saw this flick years and YEARS ago), this flick is not that fab either. However, there is something about the poster that has made it on my "want" list for a long while. It's in great shape.






CHILD'S PLAY:

This was something else I actively pursued. I don't know exactly how or why I saw this come available...but when i did see that it was up for sale, I decided I needed it. I have all of the posters for the theatrical sequels...but (Gasp!) did NOT have the original's poster. (I did NOT bother with the recent remake's poster...). Not the best poster---but whatever. It is the first.




And that is it. Nothing special. Nothing exciting. I actually have a couple of other posters...but I really don't want to buy any more for a while. I have been framing more...maybe i'll do another post with new posters and newly framed posters. We will wait and see...

Thanks for visiting.



CHEERS!

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #12

  Hi there. Yes, I’m back again. Really, I was in a weird, crazed buying frenzy recently. I have enough posters for at least one and a half more posts… But I’ll try to pace myself and hold back a bit. These aren’t that exciting. Actually, neither is the next batch. The batch after that has one or two things I’m especially excited about, but we’ll have to see what trickles in to fill the rest of that post up. But I’m getting ahead of myself. We are on this post. Let’s take a gander at it,  shall we? I hope it won’t be too disappointing. Perhaps there’ll be a poster on here or two that you haven’t seen before. THE QUIET EARTH: While I think I’ve heard of this movie before, and I think I may have seen this poster before, I’m not quite sure. If I have seen this poster before, I don’t think I actually owned it. Like my last post, this has a few posters that were part of several lots. No, I am not posting all of the posters in the lots. Not all of them appealed to me. This one, thou...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #13

Hello. Here we are again. There’s nothing new to see here. Every poster is either VHS-era garbage or something you’ve seen before. There is one outlier that doesn’t seem to belong, but it’s one that I’ve been looking for forever. Even though I wasn’t actively looking for it when I finally got it. Huh? Never mind. Let’s just take a look and see what we have today… CURSE III: BLOOD SACRIFICE (video) :  I don’t know what I was thinking when I decided to track down the posters for THE CURSE series . For those who have never seen it or heard of it, THE CURSE series is a mostly direct-to-video series of horror flick that are NOT related to each other at all, except by title. I have the theatrical (I think) one sheet for the original movie. I’m not sure if I have a copy of the part two poster or not, and I may have copies of parts three and four already… Or not. I am not sure. But here is the poster for CURSE III: BLOOD SACRIFICE. Yes, as you can, guess, it was cheap. Did I see the movie...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #11

Welcome back. Now that the James Bond stuff is out of the way (see my last post), I can trudge to some B-movie stuff. A lot of this stuff came from lot purchases. I have a lot of these posters already, and have shared them in previous posts. Not all of the posters from the various lot purchases will be shared. Don’t panic. I’ve just decided to share these as a way to look back at these B-flicks and reflect on them a bit. THE MEPHISTO WALTZ: This was an early movie in the 70s satanic panic cycle, that was started with ROSEMARY’S BABY in the mid 60s. If you haven’t seen it, you’re not really missing much. What I do remember most from the commercials was a dog with a human head. Imagine my annoyance when it just turned out to be a dog with a mask on its head that someone placed on it as a joke. There was no “human headed” dog in the plot. Alan Alda I identify so much with being Hawkeye on M*A*S*H, that it’s hard to see him in this movie. At least for me, this is an instance where it’s har...
